Hey did you use the same pushrods that were originally in there? Also did you buy upgraded springs?
@@Cryptobo23 how is it going? No actually we had a leftover set of used pushrods from another 302 I built a while back, but they were stock factory ones. I used the same springs that came with the Cobra heads and honestly they looked like the factory springs too! If you can afford to upgrade those items do it 💯, I chose to put it together like that because as you can see in the video I wasn’t even sure the car would run after all the damage I found
Hello. Nice video. I have a question about the air horn conversation. Did you notice if after you cut, if the intake hoses collapsing on load after cutting them off?
@tech595 hello, thank you for watching and commenting! On my truck the hoses do not collapse, they are fairly sturdy… but I had a car before that had a similar problem and it was because the heat of the engine and the oil that it would suck in from the valve covers had broken down and weakened the rubber. Does your intake hose feel soft when you squeeze it? If it does Most likely you will need to replace it
@MrBlitzkrieg1987 they feel real good, not soft. I cut them last night. I will try at some point this week.
Great video my guy…
@@fatheadmeetoo2891 I appreciate your feedback brother! Thank you for watching 🤟
Awesome!!! My LX needs a passenger floor pan. At the time I just sealed the rust with Ospho and put fiberglass over it 😂
I probably should have done the same thing bro 🤣
just slot the 2 fire wall holes and it slips right in ..that spacer is no issue if the 2 RIGHT holes are trimmed!
Yes, that works too, apparently there is more than one way to skin a cat! 🤣🤟
I just got one of these engines yesterday. I'm undecided as to whether to make it a street and strip engine or a blown race engine. I'll decide after the machine shop tells me the condition of the block.
Awesome! I wish you good luck, most of the time engines are in good or at least rebuildable shape, mine was super rough because it sat outside without being properly covered and water got inside! I really hope yours is better 🤟
@@MrBlitzkrieg1987 One of the pistons is stuck in the cylinder due to rust. I don't want to risk damaging it any further. If the block does not need more than a .030 overbore then I'll probably go with the blown race engine.
Hey man, just checking in. Hope you're doing good my friend
Shane, you’re a great friend! Thanks for checking on me, all is well my friend, I’ve just been a little busy with work lately, so I haven’t had much success creating content. Hopefully I can get everything back in order and get back to UA-cam, because I really miss it!
@MrBlitzkrieg1987 I'm glad to hear that you're doing well. Sometimes work gets right in the way of everything! Looking forward to more content. Take care Luis!
I'm looking for the Valve face cutter like you have. What the name of the Cutter.
Hi, these are from a company called neway I got mine used from ebay
Did you swap out you upper and lower control arms as well and the outter tie rods? Or was that not necessary?
Hi, so if you have a foxbody you don’t have upper control arms in the front. You can use the stock lower control arm with the sn95 spindle but the balljoint on the fox is smaller! You can fix this by buying a set of balljoint spacers, but the easiest way is to have a set of sn95 ball joints pressed into the foxbody control arms! The tie rod ends you can get away with using the stock ones.
I have a 1997 460/7.5. When i first got it, the fuel mileage was absolutely terrible. I installed a wide band O2 sensor on it and it was running at about 10/11 to 1 on fuel ratio. I did some reading and it was recommended to replace the ECM. I replaced the ECM and my fuel ratio stays at 13 or so. I went from about 10 miles per gallon to 16/17. If I had an older 460/F series truck, I would put a Holley throttle body fuel injection system on it. If you have one of these and want better power and fuel economy, install a wide band and go from there. These engines are so large that a slightly off fuel ratio makes a huge difference.
This is excellent advice! I haven’t installed a wide band O2 yet, but I did do several small changes to the truck. The best mileage I got is 14mpg! But I will definitely consider your recommendations to see if I can improve on it further!
Hey there, great video. What did you use to clean the rail besides the steel wool?
Hi, thank you for watching and leaving a comment. What you see me using in that video is actually diesel fuel, I was testing it out as a degreaser, but honestly it doesn’t work very well and it smells kinda bad! I’ve used kerosene as well which does a better job. All that stuff is flammable, so you can also get away with using regular simple green or dawn soap with warm water! But make sure you dry everything really well and spray the inside of the rails with wd40 after to prevent corrosion!
I think that's about the best it going to get . I had a 2000 Grand voyager SE at 15.6 MPG after using Royal purple fuel treatment . You can probably get some high efficiency tires but I know most truck guys would never do that , also a lighter AGM Battery and some "smoothie" type wheels
I think you’re right! Maybe if I really wanted to squeeze every ounce of economy out of it I could get smaller street tires and convert over to Maf, but Im ok with what it’s getting now. Im really trying to get some more power out of it, I had saved up to buy the banks headers and exhaust kit but they discontinued it 😳
You have actually done NOTHING... except foolishly Wire wheel them
Your opinion means exactly that to me 🤣
Hey Blitz, I just now found this...Nice work, good to see you're very sensible in your approach...Love seeing that you didn't try to reinvent the wheel on such a tricky manifold, you're just mainly trying to equalize the flow of the worst ports to the best ones...Excellent video for the home porter in us all!!...Major Kudos, keep up the great work!!...
I appreciate your comment! I love the simplifying things, yes there are people who can completely reshape a port and improve it, but the majority of the people (even most professionals) do exactly that Im doing here. I also have a video about porting E7 heads that seems to be getting some appreciation, because I made it as simple as possible without using any of the lingo and confusing words that professionals usually do 🤣. Thanks again my friend!
I'm a nerd too I guess? I'd rather spend money on a quality tool, even if I might only use it once. That way, I'll still have a quality tool to use if there is a next time, rather than buy a cheap tool that is only usable once! and I'd rather do that than pay someone good money to mess up, which happens most of the time. Good video!
I appreciate you watching! I definitely do relate to what you are saying! Sometimes I splurge on tools whenever I know that I will use them for something important, but I also buy cheap stuff when I need something disposable 🤣! There are a lot of people who think like you and me, people who rather learn to do a job and to make sure it is well done! Take care my friend! 🫡
You definitely got a great handle on this job! So many spot welds to drill out. Great job!
It’s definitely a learning experience 🤣
@@MrBlitzkrieg1987 I 💯% know what you mean
Awesome, can't wait to see how it turns out!
Im curious too! I haven’t finished it, but Im sure better than it looked before I cut it 🤣👍
I've used that drill I got a couple of them they work good I've heard other people complain about them I've never had a problem
It works well enough in my opinion, the first time I tried using it I didn’t have a punch so the blade would jump around, I also broke a few blades, but once I used it correctly it worked really well
Excellent job Luis! Kept the cuts straight! It’s ON with no RETURN! You got this Bro! 💯👊🏾
Have to get it done 🫡
What did you use to get the spot welds drilled? I have a cheapo Amazon bit. I'm about to use it for my core support.
I got that one from habor freight Im sure it’s the same thing 🤣! Works good if you use a punch right in the middle of the spot weld
@@MrBlitzkrieg1987That's good to know! Thank you so much.
I bet that bbk throttle body still whistles huh 😏 lol
The bolts that hold it to the intake where loose that’s why that one was whistling like that! But I know what you mean, I had one that would whistle like that and what I did is pulled out the IAC valve and I smoothed the inside casting on the throttle where it mounts! That took care of it, try that if you ever have that situation 🫡💯
@@MrBlitzkrieg1987 I'll have to try it because mine whistles and it's hella annoying 🫡🦇
Future hotrodder!!! I love it!!
Definitely a future Fox Body fanatic
You’re a wonderful father Luis! I love it!!💯👊🏾

Hello, to anyone interested these are the exact injectors I used to upgrade my truck, I will update this link as they become available. www.ebay.com/itm/305574456972?mkcid=16&mkevt=1&mkrid=711-127632-2357-0&ssspo=J_KkMPQWS6m&sssrc=0&ssuid=J_KkMPQWS6m&var=&widget_ver=artemis&media=COPY

good man i bought same gen III but with 12-hole 24lb too a little a while back, on my stock injectors with 3.55 ring&pinion change i got 118km per 10Liters @100km/hr freeway, im still fine tuning the c6 kickdown cable to cylinder valve dropped the pan already twice be prepared and get a Digital Borescope Teslong NTS500B cant wait to run range test on the gen-III 12-holes ...great vids + MSD STREET FIRE IGNITION COIL FITS FORD TFI IGNITION - MSD5527 or Mallory HyFire 6AL , msd harness 8874 to interchange between the unit the original coil as backup
@@geth__commands_6300 Im interested in upgrading the ignition on my truck as well, Ill be looking into the parts you mentioned there! Thanks for your comment! 🫡
I would like to change the SD to a MAF setup, kinda of pricey. I live in a rural area and slowing down helps get better mileage. 3.55 gears at 60mph seems to be the sweet spot. I have stock-size tires also. A big difference between city and highway driving. 5mpg versus 12 for me. I'm lucky I don't drive much. In the winter I leave it in 4wd for a few months. much snow and ice here in the winter. My truck is really good in the snow. I spend just under a hundred bucks a month for gas. good video, I think I already have those newer style injectors. I would like a fresh engine with the computer cam. Its in the future.
Sounds like you have a plan for your truck! Ive thought about going with a MAF sensor from a newer 460, on the last years California F250/F350 trucks had a MAF computer from 94-97. But the easiest way to do it is to find a set up from a Fox Body 5.0 Mustang and just have a chip installed to let it know it’s a 460 now. You’re right about the city driving, if I use the highway i get pretty good mileage, if I use only the street and short trips Ill get about 11mpg tops. Thank you for watching
Looks good
Thank you for watching 😎
Good job compa!
I appreciate you watching brother! Gracias 🙏
Why don’t we get a night view?😂 The bulbs? Nobody ever wants to finish these posting of their vids😢
I didn’t think of that! I was so happy that I finally had an RPM gauge that I completely forgot to test the lights. They work though 💯, everything works as it should! The only thing to watch out for is getting a cluster from the same generation truck that you have, and if you have a gas Truck use a cluster from a gas truck… and if you have a diesel use one from a diesel! They will not interchange
Follow Brew2L
I’ve watched some of his videos, cool guy 👍
Tap the gas, just a little bit. ????
It’s just a habit I have from working on carbureted cars 🤣, I can’t shake it off! I know it does nothing on an EFI car
How long did it take to wreck it after adding power?
Lol it took like a solid year
How did it run after you got it back together?
That’s what I am running on the T-top that I put together on my channel, Im being 💯 honest, these heads run harder than as cast Gt40 heads. Exhaust flow is the real downfall of the SBF heads and that’s what I focused on mainly here in this video
First off thank you for the reply. I’m planning on doing this to the truck I have on my Channel here on UA-cam. How many hours do you think you put into these? I’ve never done a set but I’m a machinist and I have access to carbide burrs and anything I’ll need, thank you.
@@jacobmoore6236 Im not sure on the hours, because I didn’t do the whole job in one sitting, it is a little time consuming for sure. I did one mod at a time to every port to stay consistent.
Very cool man thank you, I will be doing this in the future
@@jacobmoore6236 I just subscribed to your channel bro, Im interested in seeing what you do with that truck! I have a 91 bricknose as well 🤣
No, no! The lapping band should be more to the front of the valve - not in the middle as You say.
Sure 👍
Thanks for the vid! I just traded my nice Honda Foreman Rubicon for a 97 F250 with a 460 and 301k on the clock. Truck is worn down but that engine sounds great other than the passenger exhaust manifold leaking! This is very helpful as ive never owned a 460 before!
Hello, I appreciate you watching and leaving a comment! I honestly think all 460s have leaking exhaust manifolds at this point 🤣, mine is leaking too and I think it is because one of the bolts is broken. Good luck in your journey of driving and sorting out your truck, I absolutely love mine still, even after 4 years of owning it 😄👍
@MrBlitzkrieg1987 I was going to ask if you've ever pulled the manifolds off. I'm sure it's going to be an absolute bear. Might leave that one to a shop with a proper torch lol
@@frontporchpickin289 I haven’t done it yet, but I will have to soon… I know at least one of the bolts is broken so I will need to extract it somehow. I really would like to get some headers but they’re so expensive that I may have to wait on that too
Better mpg than my 2wd '04 5.4 Navigator 🤦. I guess I can tell the wife with a straight face now that I'm buying an old 460 truck for fuel economy.
In this particular truck, its the combination of low gearing, 5 speed manual transmission and no factory options that help with the mpg. Honestly I would trade a few mpg for air conditioning, power doors and some 4:10 gear 🤣👍
does the fitment and placement of the injectors in the injector holes get affected when you did the port matching? Just curious.
On this particular intake it doesn’t. The injectors boss sits on top of the port and the injector bottoms before reaching the port. You can also just match everything around the injector and leave that section alone if you are nervous about that. In my opinion the roof of the port never gets pushed high enough to make a difference on how the injector sits
@@MrBlitzkrieg1987 Thanks for the info!
Does this thinning cause the valve guide to loose strenght?
I don’t believe it has an effect when you just thin them… there are folks out there the remove them completely, specifically from the exhaust side, but Ive never felt comfortable doing that
