In this video, I finish restoring my 1950 Panhead's engine. We at DeathProof Productions hope you enjoy this video and stick around to see the restoration for the rest of this soon-to-be amazing motorcycle.

You did a nice job on that pan head. I've myself built many pan heads back in the mid 70's. The one thing I did differently was line hone the engine cases while bolted together to get a straight even bore for the crankshaft. Back then we installed oversized roller bearings for the main shafts after line honing. I always liked building the pan head and the knuckle heads. Great classics. I like you're work.

My Dad had a pan head, After he passed 31 yrs ago, my brothers and I went through “his box” we found in the bottom of his old 5 drawer dresser. In there I found an old receipt for an engine rebuild done by a shop in Jackson Mi. With the pistons & rings, gaskets, bearings, (I think) machine work etc, I recall the shop rebuilt the engine for his 38 Harley for under 117.00 bucks. I wish I’d of stuck it in my pocket so I’d have it ……… yep; hindsight is still 20/20 😂. Ironic as it is, later on in life my Dad became a Machinist and had an old Bridgeport, South Bend 13 in, 2 drill presses, etc. I can still see him “cking tolerances with his Sterrett mics 🙂, thanks for the ride back to some great memories. He sold his Panhead in 56, bought a 39 Ford dump truck to make bread n butter when he got laid off at the factory in S Michigan

Put it back together and keep it as the last owner had her, screw the persnickety crowd. I have a '41 EL that I was left after its owner passed away in the late '90s and when I rebuilt the engine and trans in '13, I saw it wasn't as it rolled out the factory door and I couldn't care less. I knew that when the owner was still alive, it had a pretty rich history of owners that had changed shit as needed over the near century it's been alive. I'm just the keeper of the flame until it's time to pass it on to a new owner that will hopefully take her for what she is. A motorcycle that's built to ride, is older than we are and respect the fact that she'll be here LONG after we are. Great job man, I'll keep watching for sure.

The pan head has been my dream bike since I got out of the service in 1977 but I just can't afford one now. In 1974 I was stationed in S. Carolina. A group of us rented a beach house on Sulivans Island. There was three harleys parked in the dining room. One was a 1954 pan head. I wanted that bike in the worst way but at 19 on military pay I just didn't have the money. If I had one now or even the engine I would park the bike behind my bar or if I had the engine it would be on the bar just for me to appreciate. I'm 68 and retired now and probably will never see it come to be. Great video. Thank you.

A group of my friends find and restore/rebuild pre-WWI motorcycles and it's a labor of love and re-engineering. The design perimeters and metallurgy and bearing technology before WWI FORCED it forward, left everything to be desired, so in our "runstorations" we "modernize" the internals, often at great expense. CNC-ing new aluminum pistons to replace cast iron originals (we had machinist friends), Hand turning modern steel cranks and cams and heat-treating both is far more "art" than machining. Boring out bronze bushings in cases and fitting rolling element bearings is engineering art. We take a 5000 mile life engine and turn it into a 50,000+ mile re-build cycle engine and increase the horsepower by 10-20% by reducing friction and increasing efficiency. One of our gang rode his 1911 ACE to Sturgis from Sand Springs, OK this year (NOT a trailer queen!) Placed First for Antique ridden in and second in Oldest Bike and First in Oldest Bike ridden the farthest on a Columbia Bicycle frame with a 61 CID 52* V-twin engine and total-loss oiling system and acetylene headlight that he said had cars flashing their high-beams at him across Kansas and Nebraska! I aimed it so I KNOW it was legal and right! But the 9 inch reflector put out 12,000 Beam candlepower compared to HID or LED's at 4000-6000! I rigged a bicycle LED brake light for him using a magnetic switch.
