A stroker build video that started as a simple garage update turned into something bigger once the comments filled up — viewers sharing their own battles with the same aftermarket parts supplier, technical debates over cylinder sleeving, and one builder’s blunt verdict that the 440 is the most powerful wedge in the world. Part one covers only the beginning of this Mopar big-block project. Watch to see where it starts.

Chris Duke closes out his five-part Chevy 350 rebuild series with Motorz’s Finale episode, capping a build that started with Tear Down and worked through Machine Shop, Bottom End, and Top End. Viewers praise his careful technique but are still asking, years later, for the dyno numbers and start-up sound this episode never shows. One 15-year-old fan says the series alone taught him how a small block actually goes together. Watch to see how a nearly year-long rebuild gets buttoned up.

Hagerty’s Redline Rebuild series opens with the engine that arguably needs no introduction: the Chevrolet small-block V8, in continuous production for sixty years and installed in everything from base Chevys to Corvettes, trucks, and boats. Filmed at Thirlby Automotive in Traverse City, Michigan, and compressed into a silent, sped-up teardown and rebuild, the episode has pulled in over ten million views without a single line of narration. Sponsored by RockAuto.com, it set the template for an entire series built on watching skilled hands do familiar work at an impossible pace. Watch to see sixty years of engineering come apart bolt by bolt.

A single builder assembles a small block Chevy 383 stroker from scratch, filmed entirely on an iPhone with no shop, no crew, and no shortcuts.
