This is classic engine building.😂 "We started with a junkyard engine and before you knew it, we're $20k deep in a full custom."😂😂
I am building up a new engine for my 69 Mustang S-code. I recall watching this video a year back. I started by taking in the bare block to the local speed shop to have the block cleaned, magnafluxed and inspected. I knew the engine had come out of a 66 T-Bird and had never been rebuilt, it had factory bores still. Now we're in the process of securing all the parts to build it into a 445 FE. Only the block, main caps, and front timing cover are going to be original, the rest will be all new.
At the beginning the engine was said to come out of a dump truck. If I'm not mistaken, that would be an FT. Those had steel cranks and they probably tossed it. Also the blocks were beefier, had more meat around the cylinders.

Love the interest in the old FE block, I've built a few of them years ago. Impressive numbers from old iron and new tech. One SUPER cool thing about the FE is that you can mix and match things. The 360 becomes a 410 with a crank swap. Swap the intake and add headers and you've changed the engine for cheap.

Hey Karl, Bill Ballinger I am still enthusiastic about the interest in the FE too. I still love them too. I do wish someone would make 351C heads and intake to fit them. That would be really cool! I have thought about how nice it would be. A445 cross bolt 2 and 4 main, put studs in and new dowels. It would be neat to half fill it and then the 4V closed chamber heads at 4.63 bore spacing and a big burly intake in a 67-70 Mustang!

@@karljay7473 The one and only. I m banned from them now for thinking that someone should make a 351C head at 4.63 bore spacing because it was the best head Ford ever made and I guess it pissed off all the guys hoarding CJ LR/MR/HR/TP heads. I just thought and even wrote a letter to Vic Edelbrock and Suggested that he should step up the FE with Cleveland at 4.63 and an intake way back before the Edelbrock heads came out. I guess he made the right choice, they are still their best sellers. I still wish he had taken my advice. The FE is a great design and it still makes great power from it’s design. The Cleveland head is the best OEM design. I really wished the two had been mixed. I fill blocks if I plan on 750 + using studs and crossbolted mains from Pro-Gram on 2 -4 with the stock thrust main. I have 3 that are still running on the street at 700 hp that I built 20 years ago. The FE heads are pretty good with the right work. But the Cleveland because of the cant and tilt are bolt them on and go if they had 4.63 bore spacing. Good to talk to you Karl! I hope your 410 truck is still going well!

A few years ago I installed the dual quad FiTech on my 482 FE. Early version think max was 600 hp. It fired instantly but the more I drove it the worse it got. Flat out would not idle. At a Goodguys show FiTech tech tried to tune it. In the end I had wasted 5k trying to make it work. I had a NOS tunnel wedge. Finally threw it all in trash. Total junk, appears they made changes now. It ran fantastic with a pair of Holley carbs. My first and last experience with FiTech.

A buddy of mine bought the base 300hp rated single 4 barrel FItech system when they first came out to put on his 302 ford. When we first put it on it was awesome, it started easy and ran great. But after about 1 month of use, the computer would loose memory and he would have to re write the whole tune or just pick one of the pre selected setting and just deal with it running crappy. It eventually got to the point where if he drove to the store, got out and came back 5 minutes later the whole tune would be gone and sometimes going down the road it would just shut off and loose memory or it would do weird things like idle at 2,000 rpm or idle at 500rpm, it was getting out of hand and since then I have had a grudge against FItech and I have read about many others dealing with the same problem, for all the time and money wasted on the FItech he could have just bought a brand new 650 double pumper and a jet kit and been done with it.

Just some pointers on doing the 352 Most parts on the 352 are the same as the 390. Such as timing components. The 352 has the same block as the 390 so if you wanted to you could bore your 352 to a 390. If you are looking to get an easier shot at getting over 300 hp. It really would not be that much more to bore a 352 to a 390. If you are getting the cylinders honed by a machine shop. Also some stock parts for the 352 are getting hard to find. Such as the harmonic balancer and main cap bolts. However you could get aftermarket ones pretty easy. By the way the guy that said the 351w is just jealous that he doesn't have a 351 cleveland 😃

We found a junkyard engine and then rebuilt it. We used a new block, crank, pistons, rings, connecting rods, oil pan, windage tray, oil pump, pickup, camshaft, pushrods, lifters, valves, springs, heads, gaskets, timing set, intake manifold. distributor, cables, plugs, studs, and bolts. Viola! Completely "restored".

Every engine I've ever rebuilt I would stand them on their back and drive the cam bearings in and install the cam the same way which helps eliminate scaring the cam bearings and gives your wrists a break.
We drag race the Ford FE way back in the early 70’s. No one made any aftermarket stuff back then. You could get a aluminum intake but it wasn’t a better design that the cast iron it was just a lot lighter. We ran a 447 CI which was the standard 427 4.230 bore with a 428 crank which was 3.98. TRW made the pistons so it was a budget way to gain some cubic inches. Comp solid roller. Single Holley 850 with stock Ford Tunnel Port heads. It probably made about the same power as this combo. I would love to had the aftermarket pieces you guys had here to see what kind of power. With a standard bore 427 with the 4 1/4” stroke crank you guys used here it would be a 478 CI.

I believe all 352/360/390/406 and 428 blocks had "352" stamped into the casting.
@ 17:18 you can see there is a loose bolt and washer spinning on the crank balancer.
Those little 175cc intake runners and 70cc heads are holding this engine back. If it had 220cc+ and 64cc it would be in the high 600s or low 700hp range
they could have painted that block blue!

I thought it looked good with the black paint, nice valve covers too. I have seen several early 60's FE's where the block was black and the valve covers were painted flat gold.
My first love of an engine, was that 390 ford
Anybody else catch that crescent wrench move? Stop right there son ( turn it around) now proceed!!!
One or two EFI's - the same power but only double the cost. That's called a 200% success!
Awesome Fe ! Always loved the 390 Ford had one in my 1967 Galaxie 500. Was a strong running car! 390 Ford should be Ford blue! Love your show ! More Fords please!

The driver is on fire, lmao, and he was not joking
Gotta love it when you see a Ford guy get so excited about 400 or 500 horsepower.
Thanks
