Making a guess, I'd say that 300 will sit along with the other 2 6's for another project or just as show pieces. As for them ignoring the first build, it wasn't so much being ignored, they didn't go into specifics, they have a history of ignoring personnel that have left the shows, so why not a project as well?

It was in there. Until it wasn't. May have been pulled for Engine Power to play with some more, or these guys may have gotten bored with it because it wasn't a V8. I would have kept the turbo 300 forever personally 🤷‍♂️

Is good to see that old Ford getting a new power plant. All though my heart is a little broken over the inline 6 moving on, it see a smile with a nice big V8 in it. I will always have a soft spot for those inline 6 engines from Ford, but my love is for pure V8 power baby.

Ok I'm sad about the 300 but at least it didn't get an LS , and you know what, that's a little win .

I love it when PowerNation drops a banger in your notification bar.

Love seeing a FE build.

I hope one of the shows puts the 300 back to good use.

Thw cool factor of the turbo 300 overshadows this whole project now....

Yeah, i did like the I-6 but always good to see improvements. 😊

To bad Marc can’t seem to remember that he had a lot of help from his former stage partner getting that old Ford up and running. I also agree that in-line turbo 300 six was the bomb. Also all these guys seem to think tv is the end all, me I always liked Permatex aviation gasket sealer and Indian head. Good stuff with the gaskets and you didn’t have to worry about it getting into you oil pickup screen!

Love that old beast

that license plate filler really brings back memories!

Got a 1979 f 150 300 six 4 in floor all original. Great body.

Love it love it want more of it.

Way cool build guys.

Too cool mate. It would be nice to see how far the beetle bug has came along. See you next time buddy. Thanks again for your time. Can't wait to see another video

Hey! Whatever happened to the turbocharged Ford 300ci straight six that this flatbed truck was installed a couple years ago?

Drinking game guaranteed to make you pass out drunk: take a drink every time Eric says, “now”

inline 6 definitely doesn't have that glorious sound of a v8.

If you look back at the previous episodes, that dual quad engine was built some time back. The guys then, let Pat choose the engine for the truck, and he didn't recommend the big V8 cause it really wasn't setup for a truck. So my questions are why did they pull the 6, and why the BB? What the hell is goin on with PN AGAIN??? I am actually excited to see how stupid this turns out so I can 🤣🤣🤣🤣 at every episode of the high turning one ton blunder that is useless at the track and almost as useless as a shop truck!!!!

First off, thank you guys for not swapping a Cummins or LS in it. While a lot of us prefer the 300, an FE is one of the good options for this setup. The best option would have been a MEL 462👀

Why all the engine mount monkey business? Ford put big blocks in these from the factory. Why not use factory mounts? I bet you can even get polyurethane factory style aftermarket mounts.

I love FE motors, but for the same money, you could have bored and stroked a 460 out to a 535 or even a 557! An easy 650+ hp and 750+ lb feet!

Just for the fun of it what kind of horse power would a 1970 era 426 hemi make if it had just a single 2 barrel carburetor?

Does anyone know the name of the brake line clamp he used?

Y'all moving the engine around freely in all directions when making motor mounts? Ain't that gonna make the driveshaft align like shit? There goes a good pinion angle...

I like the 6 cyl turbo better.

When you have a ford 300 straight 6 turbo making 373 rwhp you leave it! You buy another truck and make another build for the fe! Allthough either engine is bad ass. Just the turbo 6 is more rare and was more of a shocker!

why dont they just keep the original tank? (it been replace anyway with a new tank). then they can combine both tanks and have a better driving range.

That tank has no baffling or sump. You're not using Holley's hydramat. And the slope of the tank seems backwards to me. Fuel starvation issues are going to be a big problem and driveability is not going to be good.

May I ask why you guys decided to fab your own motor mounts rather than just buy some new ones? After all the FE series of engines was available in the F-Series of pickups in 1964. I ask because it seems you could have gotten a much more accurate fit with factory or aftermarket parts rather than you guys and your “well that looks good enough” approach to things.

Solid motor mounts? Are you guys insane? The frame is flexible and twists and solid mounting the engine is a stupid idea. The original motor mounts are bell housing mounts and a front mount. Should have just stayed with that and used an NP540 5speed up behind it. The brake booster had a bracket that spaced it away from the firewall and placed the rod pivot point in the correct location. What not use a proper fuel tank for the application. At this point I am saying "step away from the truck before you screw it up even more". Jim Ford Highway 101 Rod and Custom

BS. I lost a rear brake line on a 93 gmc and had zero brakes after they. Don’t lie to people.

The 300 isn’t as good as everyone remembers. It probably lost all the oil out the rear main and locked up. Or sucked in a bunch of water through a failed head gasket and locked up.
