I'd rather see a video of the rumored inline 6 with a turbo.

Excited to see one with the 392s. Starting to wonder if those engines are being sent to Toledo completed. Always fascinating watching these videos. I second I'd like to see the i6.

Weird, it didn't look like they used any assembly lube.

I've never worked in a factory, so every time I see these places the automation blows me away.

It doesn't LOOK like back breaking work anymore, which is honestly great. Repetitive motion might get old.

I'm so used to seeing a v8 get built in videos, the v6 block looked weird. Lol.

I wonder if they'll ever release a video of the fuse box install 🤣
I thought it was I who did the install of the fusebox. "Built not bought" bumper sticker is legit because of it, lol.

Lol "Attention Attention check pilot hole every 30 minutes - management". I am also surprised no steel bolts going into aluminum get the thread started by hand, just air tool it right in it'll make new threads.

Thanks for the post, I always love these as well. I could watch 'how things are made' for days. :)

I was wondering what happens after this? Do the engines get tested or broken in on a machine? Do they just install the engine in the vehicle and roll it off the assembly line with no testing?
