Hi Alex! Your videos have helped me out so much to date. Again, thank you for all you do for us weekend hotrod warriors! You are very much appreciated sir. and also, thank you for returning questions we ask. Very rare to get a reply from most. Blessings and cheers from Michigan.
Yes indeed. It will have to wait for my next rebuild. Part 9 is degreeing the camshaft. Unfortunately when I degreed this camshaft, the footage was so bad that I can't bring myself to post it.
Awesome videos and very informative. I’m planning on starting a 347 stroker build soon with a roller cam kit and I was wondering if all the procedures are the same. Valve adjustment , and so on. Iv watched everything learning as much as possible for when it’s time for me to put it together, Great content and straight forward I just subscribed
Thank you. The procedures will be similar but not the same. Building a stroker takes a bit more than a stock 289/302. I would recommend buying some books, talking to your machine shop, and trying to learn as much as possible.
Hi Stupid question here lol How can you have 351 heads on a 66 mustang 289 stock ?? as 351 heads are 60.4 cc combustion chamber and 289 1966 are 49.2 or 54.5 cc ? I know bigger valve but any chance to drop in compression ratio ?
Well I know they bolt to 302 blocks but there is a certain amount of work that needs to be done for oil and cooling passages. This is something you wouldn't want to do without doing proper research.

Hey Robert! Thank you very much as always for the support. Your time to comment and show appreciation is never unnoticed!
Please keep these videos posted I plan on using them when I rebuild my 289!
I will. Keep in mind, these videos will only get you so far. I would recommend a good rebuild book to follow and learn as much as possible.
Thank you.
Still enjoying this series! Looking forward to more! Thanks! 👍
Awesome, thank you very much!
Love watching this come together!
Thank you! We are going to start it next week 👍
That will be exciting! I look forward to it!
👍
I hear some nice sounds of fighter jets in the background.
Oh ya, we are pretty close to Hill Air Force Base. The sounds of freedom!
Is there a part 9? Thanks for the content!

great stuff Alf. Is using thread sealant a must for the 289 headbolts?
It is not. None of the bolt holes go into coolant passages. Gotta watch out for that on the 200 inline 6 Fords though.
Why did you go with the 351 heads? Did Jensen's do any flow work on them?
Because that is what came off this engine. No flow work was done.

Hey Alex... is there a left (driver side) and right ( passenger side ) cylinder head or are they the same?
They are the same.
Does anyone know if the 351C heads 2 or 4V will bolt onto the 289 blocks.-Thanks very much.-Joe K.-
