- The Chevy small-block V-8 is an engine that has touched so many lives that, no matter where your car brand loyalty lies, chances are good that you’ve got a personal story about one. It has powered tens of millions of passenger cars, trucks, race machines and boats. Calling it an American icon would not be an overstatement or hype. To celebrate 60 years of this icon, we took one apart and put it back together, and we recorded the process to share with you.

the best engine of all time. not power wise, not weight wise etc. but for just sheer love and longevity, the small block chevy is at the top.
long live the Chevy small-block
Not power wise? Well the new ones are sick. This engine is almost perfect only if could rev past the 7500... But nothing is perfect...
Jonathan Aguilera 350s can make 500 hp all day long with the right parts of course
@@nickwebb9937 Lots of engines can make 500hp. Just that this one has a lot of character to it. Like a big warm heartbeat
@ricky bobby I've seen plenty of LSs, a few hondas, 2jz easily, and even a few VR6s reach 500hp and stay working past that many niles. All of them have their own character.
The 350 does it very easily and has probably the most character.
@@timesweeper9778 I'm a professional dog walker. My big truck & it's 350 sound help promote my business.
ok I think i can rebuild an engine now
Hahaha
Simple as pie
It's easy just drop it at the machine shop....they'll call you when its done
Somethings ain't easy bro..!!!
It's easier than it looks. You may have difficulty with certain things like removing rusty bolts or timing chain but there is always a solution waiting to be found
The video is 3:48 seconds long the chevy 350 has a 3.48 inch sroke! Nice touch guys!
I don't know if this was on purpose haha
I have a 3.48 inch stroke also 🙁
frenzix 😂😂
frenzix oh my god😂
@@frenzix lol
Best tribute to the SBC I've ever seen! Exceptional work! The 350 was truly the heartbeat of America for years, millions of them are still in service today.
I like how straight forward of a video this is. No endless talking and interruptions with ads. Just an engine rebuild, what almost 2,000,000 people want to see. Thank you for this video. Looking forward to sharing this with other people.
Almost 5,000,000 by now.

5.6MIL
7 mil now
But annoying music.
Made me cry more than the homeless dog commercials.
IN THE AAARRRMMMMSSS OOFFFF AN AAANNGGEEEELLLL
true
H, Robme to
i got a few tears
i felt it too
Gotta love the simplicity and reliability of the SBC. An engine you can build practically blindfolded and without breaking the bank.
this made me shed a tear... my old 1992 chevy camaro rs in turquoise, rolling down i95. it was totaled in an accident. someone ran a light and i got banged up pretty bad... well i just bought another one for $2500. its in rough shape, but the engine cranks and runs like a dream. so little by little i am going to restore it back to original condition, and this video made me happy to see finish product... to many its just an engine, to me, i learned everything about auto repair through this engine, took to many places I never thought I would see. helped outrun troubles, brought me peace on my long drives. got me and the best friend home night running from tampa in an hour, and lastly its the one that got me inspired into mechanics, now I fix airplanes, so to me the ending is so fitting... :)
The Chevy SB is an amazing engine. It is responsible for the LS engines, which are also awesome. Love the 350 specifically.
In the 70s we would hunt the junkyards for small blocks. Mix and match parts from anything from 283 to 296 for what we we doing on the street. Great learning and equally surprising at times.
This video makes me proud to be driving a 350 to this day.
yes, this is how a real douchebag is talking :D
@@TheDweed y tho?
Umm how about fuel efficiency , that thing eats a lots of fuel
@@octanedemon5548 our tahoe gets a reasonable gas mileage. it's never been a problem for us.
@@ripinpieces8387 well , now I started thinking about that ... If that Chevy eat reasonable amount of fuel , I think viper can be "car for every day"
Whenever I see a Chevy small block get rebuilt I can't stop smiling.
Rebuilt my '68 327 almost ten years ago, and it still runs strong.
327 best motor GM ever made!
I'm so glad there are people like you making these types of videos for petrolheads, thank you!
Even for the enthusiastic sports car fan and mechanic like me - I find Hagerty's engin rebuilds simply fantastic! Yes long live the CHEVY V8 !!!
Good old Chevy small block. Simple, durable, forever reliable
Too bad that cannot be said about Chevy anymore. Any car brand even....
@@WorivpuqloDMogh sure Chevy as they are voted the most reliable right now. As long as you take care of any engine like they say they will ask you. Technically engines these days will last longer than older engines because of the tighter bearing clearances.
@@WorivpuqloDMogh you should research some new engines Ford is going to start building 3 Cylinder 6 piston engines without any valves they are really cool and probably last a long time
I have been rebuilding them for 40 years now my first was at the age of 10 im 54 now and that one is still on the road today it was my grandfathers truck it has over 400,000 miles on it
Whats its fuel consumption
That was more exciting than the Super Bowl Half Time Show. Amazing !
Ready for next 200-300k miles 👍
This a Chevy Small block not a Ford. My 2008 Chevy 2500 6.0 LY6 had 541,000+ Miles 13,000+ Engine hours Original Engine, Trans, Alternator, A/C System, P/S pump, Even the windshield was the GM factory one with 8 rock chips, 3 repaired and fine fine pits all over.
I love how you guys nailed concept of Time lapse, and not mindlessly fastforwarding a video.
Great cinematics and great content. Love this series.
The Gen 1 small block will always be my 1rst love..❤
Beautiful. When I seen the paint I almost cried. And the aluminum intake goes well with the Chevy Orange. ❤️🙌
Eight year later and this is still my favorite engine rebuild video. I love how it was edited so that at times machinery moves in sync with the music.
A fitting tribute to a Legend.
I have a 305 v8 that I’m about to rebuild and watching this motivates me even more. Great video can’t wait to post mine that’s getting tossed in a 63 Chevy c10
When even the Ford guys give a teary-eyed salute... It ain't a 351, but it'll do just fine.
cellphonelightsaber eh 1 less cube and really nothing
Nick Webb just because a 351 has one more CI than a 350 dose not make them the same Fords are better than your GM little shitbox
would be proud to have for sure...if the better product wasn't available...brothers in work and engines regardless...
Kyle MCQUEEN thanks Kyle lmao
@@kylemcqueen9686 That's your opinion.
That was so damn beautiful...Long Live Chevy
Re-watched this video about 50 times and studied every frame. Preparation for my first car, a junkyard 85 k5 blazer with a "semi working" 5.7 V8 small block. Awesome video!
Why were there tears in my eyes....
Outstanding.. Simple yet AMAZING.
Love how they did it right and neat, now I want to see a performance 350 build with a run.
long live a small block 👍 my pops owns a 93 GMC vandura with almost 400k an still push's like a charm
old motors never really die they just get tired
JohnnyBoy Biggz Thats great, my 93 Vandura 5.7 has just over 300 k miles and the engine has been amazingly dependable
JohnnyBoy Biggz how much cc this engine?
Mohd Fazili 5700
Mohd Fazili 5.7 litre is 5700cc a 6.0 would be a 6000, it's easy
I really can’t wait to fix up my motor. I bought a 327 off my boss and I’ve been just dreaming of putting my hands on it I’m just so inexperienced. Recently got it up on a stand. One day I’ll fix it up and put it in a nice nova or rat.
I'm working on a big project in highschool where i have to restore a V8 GM small block installed in a boat and change the carburation with injection and this timelapse really helped me to go forward easier, thank you so much
WOW. What a great video! Pretty awesome rebuild.
Few things were ever made well enough to be driven into the ground. A 350 is one of those things
It’s been a long time since I rebuild my small block, Chevy’s, thanks for the memories!
This time lapse content is like beef jerky. Lots of work product going in for a very distilled and enjoyable final product. Nice work
The most amazing videos for automotive enthusiasts.
So happy I found this channel
that was damn amazing. good ol small block Chevy
I can still remember the day I built my first 350 Chevy at the young age of 15. Man those were the days!
Totally inspired and I love the way you guys keep things so perfectly
Need more of these builds I enjoy seeing the process.
What a great video!!!
TheCorvetteBen didn't expect to see you here
Why is that
Jimmy Sapien just weird I guess
Long Live the
Mighty Small Block
💪🏽😎
I worked at Jasper Engines for five years, and they can only dream of reaching a level of perfection such as this.
As a mechanic i found this extremely enjoyable and satisfying to watch
Exactly
Love you're engine rebuild vídeos, keep up the good work guys!
Superb! Really enjoyed it. Hope to teach my son how to rebuild an engine soon.
We love hearing that- pass the knowledge on!
Dave CP I NEED SOMEONE TO TEACH ME HOW TO REBUILT A MOTOR. I WANT TO SLEAVE MY "BIG BLOCK" h22a4 honda motor!!
Wish I was your son, all my parents ever did was give me a toy and never actually let me or make me learn anything
I had to break the lawnmower to get permission to rebuild the engine didnt work but for 5 minutes after the rebuild because iron rings on aluminum bore and free autozone stone cylinder hone finish didnt wear good scores like a son of a bitch, didnt check the ring gap but pretty sure that was wack but never the less good fun wont call it a learning experience till I get it to run for another 20 years probably going to take it to the school machine shop and had done right
You can be like me and take an old trash motorcycle and just start pulling it apart into a million peices and then take the engine apart and ask your dad for help when youre unsure about how to put it back together hahha
3:48 seconds is an awful long time to rebuild a 350, but I guess since the machining was included, the time is close.
I find the balancing, milling and porting more fascinating then the assembly. Much respect to those techs that have those rare skills.
Awesome timelapse +chill music =💯 % Wining!!
Now do a big block timelapse.
***** K
***** and an LS timelapse.
+Shalash87 Pontiac 400 would be nice too:] nice close clearance internals! or a Lm7 or the new direct injection lt4 SC corvette motor complete with wiring harness and intake... but we'll have to wait until they find a old grimy one which will probably be years and years.
+Hagerty and a VG30 time lapse
Shalash87 isnt this a 2 bolt main? big blocks are 2 bolt and small block 350 is 4 bolt main. so this isnt a 350 then?
Legends never die...(old Chevy, Ford and mopar engines)
This is one of those videos on youtube thats a really cool video of whats inside an engine and how it's rebuilt, love to see a Chevy straight 6 rebuilt next...earned a like.
I like the end when the engine and stand fly out the the shop !!
Enjoyed the video
A tribute to the small block chevy and we don't even hear it run. Sad day.
Zachary Adams I dont understand the hype with chevy. Ford clearly is way better than chevy will ever be
Living under a rock I see?
gmodmagic It is clear what truck is better. Ford is so much farther ahead in innovation and performance. F350 for life
Collin Kisor yep, you must be living under a rock. Come to a chevy small block video and proceeds to talk about how the ford diesel is better.
Collin Kisor your so stupid omg
Watching as I about have mine in the truck ready to go. Love rebuilding these engines!
Que increíbles que son los videos que ustedes suben!!! Impecables, concisos, completos, y son muchos videos!!! Puede verse todo el proceso de trabajo desde el inicio hasta el final. Felicitaciones por un excelente trabajo en los motores y en los videos!! Saludos desde Argentina.
beautiful, and the greatest thing GM ever produced in history! I love'um!
chevy produced a lot of good things but they do get outclassed by the caddy big blocks lol im sorry thats not even fair big block vs small block
A 350 Chevy is one of the best Motors ever built.
That's the way I did it
Twice!!! thank you for the memories
So satisfying to watch! I can’t wait to build one eventually. Good video guys!
Long live the chevy small block!
Said the skinny jeans wearing, man bun sissy.
clorox bleach are you the same clorox bleach that i see in every comment section of every video i watch lol?
usmc2076 And why exactly would you think that? The small block chevy is easily the most iconic engine ever made and has more than proven itself to be insanely reliable. If it wasn't it wouldn't have been put in millions upon millions of vehicles for nearly 50 years.
@@guy6751 u right now they on Gen 6 that they just put into the corvette mid engine with 500 HP and 495 torque
Long live the small block!! Amen to that!!
Brings back childhood memories of helping my old man rebuild these engines at his garage while on summer vacation. Built a couple for my cars when I got old enough to drive, but he would never do much hot-rodding upgrades except maybe putting in flat-top pistons and higher compression heads. Those engines still ran like a scalded dog. :)
Děkuji za vaše přízpěvky-je to hodně poučné,hezká práce,,,
sad to see there not manufacturing the small block chev like they use to, bullet proof engines thats for sure
Lego Man that’s what the ls is 5th gen small block
The LS series of engines are still smallblocks, and are miles ahead of old Gen 1s. Regardless, Chevy still manufactures old SBCs in the form of crate engines. Old and new have their merits, but Chevy didn't part ways with it.
What do you mean? I bought a brand-new 4.000 in bore SBC 350 in 2019.
You can still buy brand new chevy 350s......
I love my 73 Chevy k10 just wish I can rebuild it someday
Panowie wykonali kawał świetnej roboty :)
One of the most satisfying video i've ever seen, dude!! Cool
sad, beaten down, abused engine to perfect beauty.... love these videos :)
I'm a Ford guy, but gosh dang I love the Chevy small block!
My freshman year of high school was 1993 and the new 5.7 350 Camaro F-body blew my mind.
Insanely satisfying to watch. I can't get enough of them. Lol
its a 350 but the video is only 3,48 couldnt add 2 seconds im up set
If u do the math a 350 is actually a 348
@@racer67 that too! 🤣
꧂FrankThePussyFooter꧁ dude what? Didn’t you just confirm what my guy was telling you in the first place
Stroke is 3.48 inches, good enough lol
Video is actually 3:49
good for another 30 years
I love these type of fast moving videos!
Auto thumbs up!
this was the most beautiful thing ive seen all day. awsome video !!
Best engine known to man.
283 or 327 is the best engine other that a 250 I-6
All Chevy small blocks are the best 265-400 doesnt matter what SB C.I.
yea if it was a 4 bolt main
Yea... but got gotta love 2 bolt mains, especially at high rpm and your crank falls clean out its alot more fun that way.
ScrewHeadJuNgle that's more of like a little honda engine.
Really cool, do mine next :D
Man! Now this is good therapy. I could watch this kind of stuff all day. Just subscribed.
Like the way the fan spun up and the engine took off.. Another great video of a rebuild..
I run the car maintenance CZcams channel in Korea. I'm always learning such a great ideas on your channel. I hope we have a chance to be together. Thank you.
Have you ever seen or worked on American muscle cars in Korea?
A car maintenance channel in North Korea? 😄 jk
@@zzztubazzz value of the car goes down if you drop a different motor in, rebuilding the old engine will give it the "original" feeling.
@@zzztubazzz Show me where you can buy a brand new engine for $2000. In that price range they are definitely rebuilt. Which is fine because they are as good as new but they're not brand new
@@zzztubazzz You have no idea about what numbers matching is or means and it shows. You also have no idea how little was actually done to this and how little it costs. I can have the same process run on my Ford 302 from my local machine shop for about 900 dollars with me supplying parts (maybe 300 dollars total).
There is NO Chevy small block that is as complete as this with all the work that was done for sale anywhere in the world for less than 3k.
You are either a young kid (your inexperience in engines is astounding) or you are just another fat, internet troll.
that was so satisfying to watch
Joshua Ta actually...
It's just healing to me. You guys are genius.
Fantastic job guys!!...looks like a work of art!
Very cool, I'm looking forward to doing something similar to a couple of Studebaker V8's. Of course it will take just a wee bit longer!
ive got a studebaker 289 im about to do this too!!! fun lil projects
I need that engine in my Ford Explorer.
?? what FLOORD EXPLODER ???
There needs to be more educational videos like this. Good job guys.👍
wow this is the best timelapse video about engine rebuilt. small block chevy engine are great
What's the longevity now that it's been "rebuilt"?
Also, I wonder what mileage it was at prior to it being cleaned up and how that should be interpreted now.
All the guts are new, the block is in good condition and all surfaces that join together have fresh metal squished against fresh gaskets and/or gasket maker. It is truly now a zero-mile engine that needs a long and proper break-in period!
It would probably last well over 150,000 miles depending on how it's used. That engine looks pretty well worn so maybe 100,000 miles on a low estimate.
Was probably well past 100k when they rebuilt it. Should go 100-200k depending on how its maintained and used.
If you don't get 200,000miles out of a small block Chevy.......
You beat the Hell out of it or
You didn't change the Oil

That was more than just a rebuild. Love the sbc!
Wow! That was a beautiful transformation. Just think about how many vehicles are still on the road right now running sbc power plants! 2 of my 3 vehicles have small blocks, truly a great reliable engine
There is no video about this repaired engine working?
I'd love to see and hear how it works.
Iron American Dream on CZcams.
The small block chevy, dollar per
horsepower, the most bang for your buck. Burn rubber.
AWESOME TAKE DOWN AND REBUILD!
I love these time-lapse videos! 😍😍😍
Also, there are no videos other than this. I wish this guy would come back to CZcams. I doubt he knows how many people subbed and viewed this.
Check out our CZcams Channel. We have new videos every week.
Wow, I think I posted this comment on a wrong video! Awesome video to you guys too. I've already checked out a lot of your guy's stuff.
Thanks for the reply.
Great video
Swervin Skirvin
What video were you referring to?
Rebuilds awesome 300 to 400 hp engine * puts exhaust manifolds on it*
"all original"
The ex mans arent the bad part, its putting all that time and money into those stock heads. 800 bucks gets you brand new aluminum, prolly cost atleast half that to do stockers.
What's wrong with that? Don't have to worry about them rusting through or warping, at least.
I've always loved the simplicity of a small block Chevy
I love small blocks, they hold a verry special place in my heart.
