I'm always bummed, and surprised actually, that basically none of the engine builders on KZread give us viewers maybe 8-10 seconds of idle time. Man, us street guys love that! We want to hear what kind of chop the builds make and how they would fare in the real world. Vacuum too. What stall you'd need on an auto, and that they'd reliably idle with a stick where it's a PIA to keep blipping the throttle while holding the brake and clutch. I'm thinking more about carved applications here.

Not much. Back in the 90s, the 427 stroker was a lousy engine. The earlier versions were just a marketing gimmick capitalizing on the 427 name, but they had poor rod angles due to being so overstroked. They suffered from piston slap, rod failures and short lifespans. Current versions of the "427 stroker/W/R" don't have a single Ford part on them. They're just parts bin race engines. Nothing wrong with that, but can't be called a "Ford 427" with a straight face, IMHO.

​@@randomologist77 A friend who worked for Shelby on the race team said that Ford ordered the Daytona's retired to concentrate on the GT-40's. He also said that Ford insisted on the switch to the 427FE in the GT's so they could sell more Galaxies and Country Squires with big blocks. Apparently Shelby, and many of his guys, felt the small block had plenty of potential left and there was no need to switch to the big/heavy engines. In fact, the GT-40 initially used the OHV Ford Indy 256 cu in/375 hp OHV engine. Ford created DOHC heads for the Indy V-8 and got about 425 hp out of it. Parnelli Jones had a 5.0 liter version of the DOHC Indy engine (in a Lola T-70) with maybe 500 hp. And, later on, John Wyer's Gulf team used the small block (302) with Gurney-Weslake heads to win LeMans twice ('68 & '69). It looks like Shelby was right that the small blocks still had more potential. Since then, we've seen the small blocks punched out to as much as 427 cubic inches.

Specifically 390's and 428's, not the race oriented, and expensive, 427's. Salesman were supposed to tell Joe Public, "why that 390 in the Country Squire is (virtually) the same engine that just won at Daytona (or LeMans)." Same with the 426 cubic inch so-called "428." It was given that name so people wouldn't try to race it (most race classes were limited to a max of 427 cubes). Then eventually, Ford started offering racing versions of the supposedly non-racing 428 (CJ and SCJ). Anyway, "Race on Sunday, sell on Monday" always depended on selling cars with the same brand or model name, not with the actual same equipment.

@randomologist77

@@michaeldelaney7271 I deleted the response because there's just a lot of ground covered. The 428 (4.132 x 3.980) is technically 427ci (426.96ish), the 427 FE (4.233 x 3.784) is technically 426ci, but Ford allowed some finish hone wiggle room in there to get the 427 to "427." Ford made a concerted effort to market the 428 with special drag pack edition Mustangs with the CJ so the idea they didn't want it to be raced seems suspect. The 428 was just inferior to the 427 in race applications as it was a purpose built street engine, not a purpose built race engine like the 427 that was unsuitable for typical production car use. The only reason the 428 even came into being was the 390 being outmatched by upcoming and recently released competitor street engines from GM and Mopar like the the 440 and the L36 427s. While Ford no doubt wanted to use the 427 FE's potential victories for propaganda's sake, they were looking to win first and the 289 wasn't a winner and probably wasn't going to be a winner at Le Mans. Ford would have been happy to tell Joe Public their 289 engine was the one that won at Le Mans if it came down to it. Also, the small blocks had a long future ahead while FE engines were already in their swan song stage with the 385 series in development. The 289 was overmatched and unreliable at the power levels the GT40 needed to achieve to win at Le Mans. The 255ci Indy V8 was an incredibly exotic and wild engine. Custom aluminum block, DOHC, 4 valves per cylinder, fuel injection, gear drive timing, 12.5:1 CR and unusable below 6,000rpm with an 8,300rpm redline. The 255 still made 60hp less than the intentionally rpm restricted 427 in the GT40s and the 255 was only designed to run 3hrs, not 24hrs. Even if they wanted to use it, Ford didn't have time to devote to a build program for the Indy engine for Le Mans and it was not an engine they could market as it had nothing in common with the production engines. Also, from my understanding, the drivers made the call to go with the 427 after it proved Ford's point of view by blowing track records out of the water. It was just a no brainer. The 427 was more powerful, more reliable and more forgiving with an ability to pull well down under 2,000rpm. Shelby wanted lighter weights and after the successes of the 427 were proven again, Shelby begged (and was denied) the 427 for the Mustangs, instead getting the 428 as 427 production couldn't be ramped up even if Ford wanted to do it.

They won’t do anything that isn’t tossing a bunch of sponsored parts at a project. Same reason they won’t massage stock parts to make more HP, there’s a whole class of drag racing based on stock appearances where people make 10 second passes on cast iron heads and manifolds, you won’t see that here either because there’s no sponsor cash

Always Always Always make sure that the crankshaft bearings, connecting rod bearings, cylinder walls, piston skirts ect... get a layer of clean oil on them before assembly. I have seen engines seize upon start up from failure to take these simple steps.

You guys obviously know what your doing with engines. Especially Pat… With the whole pro drag racing engine stuff… My question is, why does everyone spray copper seal on cometic head gaskets when they say not to?

yes it will run on pump gas but that set up would do so much better on racing fuel . put 110 to 120 octane thru the intake and set it to 30 degrees that would let it will lift the front end on any old ford it would also make the engine a lot happier. they were made to run on high octane back in the day and even the aftermarket blocks love the high octane juice.

Could you do a stage 2 for the windsor warrior 427 engine, a solid roller cam, shaft rockers, holley sniper fuel injection with their high rise intake and stand alone system. Just so we can see what the upgrades and power diffence is. On pump gas, and on higher compression, higher octane.

That's all nice, but in my experience with a 2 bolt main block and less stroke at just 4" (408), I had some pretty signicficant amount of cap walk and fretting of the mating surfaces. That was with the external 28oz imbalance crank that was balanced to the rotating assy. too. This was 6K rev limited and used for a road race application so lots of extended RPM times. This is a lot of weight and a BIG arm swinging around to try to control with cast iron 2 bolt mains. It might be OK for limited street use and the occational rip down the dragstrip, but not the best idea for a race application or high RPM with extended times. OK for budget street stuff, though.

I love the sound of Ford small blocks ive built many of them! I’ve been out of racing for 12+ years now I’d love to get another Fox box but I don’t think I could justify building another 10,000 dollar engine when u can get a 5.3 and a turbo for peanuts and make more power. Back in the day I would never put a Chevy in a Ford I would never even consider it but say u have a fox mustang that u wanna build a stroker and make real power well u gotta start with an aftermarket block which is 3,000 bucks that’s more then u would spend on a junkyard 5.3, re ring it, cam, valve springs, turbo and get it installed in the car if u do the work urself obviously. The last mustang I had I built a 12:1 compression 349 stroker (it was .040 over so a 347 just .010 bigger bore), it was 550hp but the amount of money to build it wasn’t worth it IMO. When I build these motors I use the main stud girdle that requires machining the main caps almost nobody does this style because it requires machining but it is the most effective way to make the mains not walk it ties the entire main cap surface into the girdle not just where the bolts go so all the mains are helping each other and also I use studs not bolts for the mains and this really helps from the mains walking and cracking the main webbing. I still don’t want to make more power then the 550hp I was making because of the money involved in building the engine these block always crack and blow apart around these power levels so putting some nitrous on could ruin the motor. Another thing I feel that is good to do with these engines is too make sure everything is tight like ur intake bolts and everything will just support the block as a whole better but ur rolling the dice after 500hp. With a 5.3 u have a much stronger block and aluminum heads that have decent size valves and runners stock. The only reason to keep a Ford engine is so people don’t make fun of u or u don’t believe in that. I would much rather blow up a 5.3 I got from the junkyard then an engine I spent 10k on.

I’d love to put that motor in a ‘88-‘90 Mustang GT fastback

Then do it!

The only truly expensive FE component, any more, is the block. True 427 dimension blocks are big bucks. The bore stroke of the 427 was unlike any other FE. The bore was huge compared to the other FEs and other FE blocks can't be bored that large. 428s aren't the same and come to the displacement by stroke rather than bore.

I would love to see this same motor on the dino with Holley EFI on it :)))

Front cylinder on passenger side is #1. Fords are numbered 1,2,3,4 down the passenger side, 5,6,7,8 down the driver's side.

I got a 351w with a c6 transmission 73000 on it. Running order. For sale. Great shape.
