Here's a story. I had an 83 Bronco with this engine and 4 speed granny. I ran it to 120K miles then wrecked it in 1988. I bought a truck with blown engine, and swapped the engine out with the one from the Bronco. It ran the next 12 years for I'm guessing 150K miles. The old truck was rusted out, so we pulled the engine and junked it. My buddy had a sawmill that needed an engine so we put the old 300 in service again. It ran the next 8 years for 8 hrs a day making lumber. Finally it threw a rod through the block. We think the oil pump failed and the guys just weren't paying attention. We called that engine Hercules.

The older the better with these 300 parts. Adapting a basic throttle body injection system to an older 300 like this would be perfect just for drivability reasons alone, not HP gains.

1:38 when the beer from the night before finally hits.... 😂

I added a Mercedes gas 6 Bosch mechanical fuel injection system. The engine already had pistons, cam and 4 bbl. After fabbing a manifold and figuring out pump modifications and larger injectors it was a rocket ship in a Fairlane. I'm not sure a full port and polish is good tho. I stick to the original pocket port formula.

I have often heard that the best solution for an inline 6 is to have twin carbs. The length of the intake manifold means cylinders 1 and 6 are almost always getting a different mixture than cylinders 3 and 4 if there is one carb. This was popular on many inlines built for high performance, such as on Triumphs and Datsuns. The other solution was to use multi-port EFI, but that isn't easy to do, since the 300/4.9 EFI engine was not a popular option for engine swaps. GM went with V6 engines, so they could use carbs or TBI and not have the inline 6 air fuel distribution problem.

I was waiting for you to put the final polish on but you missed it. You needed as your last polishing step on your ports to put a rag wheel on the high speed tool and use a very fine metal polishing compound. Your ports would have come out as smooth as a mirror and they would have had a mirror finish also. Next time you do a porting job try using a rag wheel polisher and you will never regret it. You did a fine job anyway. your attention to detail was excellent and the gasket detailing was also excellent fitting on your engine. You will definitely know the difference.

Probably, just depending on how much you want to invest. You can rebuild one (old school / shade tree) for a few hundred bucks really. If this were a standard 300 I'd probably just do a quick rebuild on it.

That Offy Dual Port manifold produces great torque, but I've never seen one used with a Q-jet. (Works GREAT with a 400 cfm AFB!) Keep in mind that the vast majority of modified street engines are way over-carbed and over-cammed. This formula: CI X max RPM X .90* / 3456 is typically used to calculate necessary carb cfm for street-driven vehicles. * 90% volumetric efficiency (90% is generous for a street-driven vehicle) According to the formula, a 305ci I-6 turning 5,000 would need about a 400 cfm carb. Q-jets can run from 600-750 cfm. 455 Buick, Olds, Pontiac(?) and 472-500 ci Caddies can be 800 cfm) Anyone know what years/models (F500-up?) the forged steel crank was used in the HD300/6?

at 10 min was the head already machined cuz it looks too clean and flat?

how much difference does it make with that polished head?

Alot of variables when it comes to porting/polishing. The 240 head I'm p/p is cast iron, and only one side is p/p'ed. It is also carb'ed, so a different set of variables there too.. also the 300 is a low rpm engine, thus.. more variables. Hard to specify what you need as opposed to what you want with this type of work.. mine is torque, flow efficiency, engine life, and I was "time free" when I did that lol so, I thought it better to utilize that time efficiently. One could talk hours about the process of p/p and find many answers to one question. :-) certainly not my specialty, but if you youtube university search and read real world cases about this subject its basically common sense in the end depending on what you want to accomplish. :-)

It is called a "dual plane", meaning under low rpm the majority of the fuel/air mixture runs on one plane or the path of least resistance enhancing lower throttle response and fuel economy. Under high rpm and heavy load the intake uses both "planes". Another way to think of it is like a 4bbl carburetor, primaries work under low rpm and secodaries open during times of heavy throttle or a heavy foot. I'm sure someone can iterate more scientifically but that's the basic way I think of it. -thanks

As far as I know, a 65-67 F600 "may" have one. Others have told me that you can find them in up to 1978 F350's but I really dont believe that and I've never seen one in that new of a truck. From all I've researched, 65-67 F600's for a forged crank. In industrial/agricultural engines, used for pumps, generators etc will have forged rods, and possibly pistons, from what I've read. Havent verified this yet, but I'm looking!

@@newvintage8877 no just your everyday 300 straight 6. It's not an industrial 300 straight 6. Is a 300 straight 6 that goes in an F-150 and dump truck the only thing that is different is the exhaust it had a heavy duty exhaust. there's a 300 that's Industrial it was not put in vehicles it was used for water pumps generators things that you needed to run 24/7 365 the industrial 300 had forged everything the 300 that goes in your truck does not I almost four 1978 it is just a 300 is not Industrial there was no heavy duty 300 they can call with that but it was just a 300 a fantastic engine. I'm putting my 300 a 1978 Ford Granada I got mine for $100 because the guy couldn't get it started because he forgot to take down all the entire books and there was a missing hose from a diaphragm in the carburetor.

Not to argue, but your correct it's not an industrial, it's an HD, as shown in the Ford spec catalogs of the time. The HD had the forged crank, but not all of them. They may or may not have forged rods. The industrials had forged rods but may or may not have had a forged crank. Mine has the forged crank, and the HD exhaust log, other than those two items it is just a plain 300. Some of the specs are slightly different on the HD but not much. Basically if you have a 2.5 exhaust log, Ford (automotive) classified it as the HD 300. Prominent in mid to late 60's but in the books they made them up until 1978-79, which I have never seen. There's no real folklore about them other than what people keep saying. HD = high flow exhaust log. IND = forged rods and probably setup for propane, not used in automotive industry. Basic 300 = all others Still... wonderful torque engines.
