One of the most informative motor channels I’ve ever come across on YT. There’s plenty out there, but these guys really do the experimenting for you so you don’t have to do it yourself. The amount of money I’ve saved through just watching these guys experiment with different diff ratios and different turbos and superchargers
I remember when MM&FF tried that...they ran out of wastegate springs just over 1000hp and tried to modulate boost with the throttle...which ended up with big swings in the boost coming on and off and eventually scattering the bottom end. I have to think Holdener, at the least, knew about the test...even if he wants to deny it to distance himself from that train wreck! 😆
We split a 302 block on the dyno right at 800hp. It split right down the middle. It was at 15lbs of boost. Then we made some braces in the lifter valley and a better girdle and it lived after that boost level and it went in a customer’s fox body and ran 9.0’s and 8.90’s for about 2 years before he changed the set up.
Thank you sir.... I'm building an 88 mustang GT and due to family and kids. It's somewhat a budget build. I was already thinking about buying a cheap eBay kit (if I can find a single turbo setup) but this made up my mind. The motor has the basic stuff. Gt40P heads, Edelbrock upper and lower intake, 70mm throttle body, mild cam (was in it when I bought the car) full exhaust that won't matter with the turbo. But I'm realistic with what I've got. If I could sniff the 500hp range I'd be really happy in that light car. Just worried about the whole block splitting thing. But I figured with an eBay kit if the turbo itself ends up not lasting, it's alot cheaper to replace a turbo once the rest of the kit is already in place. Thank you for your videos
Awesome to see some 5.0 turbo love. I have the same turbo on mine and also using a Holley computer I'm already at 6.3psi and wanting 10-12 keeping the rpm down and the timing low let see how far this 302 can go
302 Chevy VS 302 Ford!! I know any motor of a given displacement will make about the same power but I would love to see a junk yard 302 Chevy build. Vortec 5.7L 4.00” bore block, pistons, & heads with the L99 3.00” stroke crank and 5.94” rods!! LT4 hot cam kit or better! -does the 4.9L 302 SBC kill the 5.0L 305 SBC? -does the 4.9L 302 SBC loose out to the 5.0L HO Ford?? -carb VS TPI + boost
Love to see you test a remote turbo test. Then see how much exhaust length and intercooler pipe effects boost and lag ect. Love the videos! Iv been learning a ton!
The man of the year Richard Holdener thank you for the turbo content we are waiting on cam test just like you ls guys get on a built stock botton motor..... put a boss block in the my 94 but It has same top end as this except it has an fcam
Im glad you used the same manifolds that most of use would be using, cheap long tube, incompatible with your build, beat to shit manifolds! Thanks! Loving the content just subbed.
Man you need your own online shop. You make all these awesome videos imagine how many people would buy from you. Cheap eBay turbos, good turbos, turbo kits that fit certain cars with certain engines, cams, intakes. If you can get them directly from the manufacturer then come with competitive pricing you'd make good money. People trust you. Need a partner?! Lol
This dude is literally a saint. I don’t think everyone understands how valuable his non mythical advice is to the car community. So much bullshit, and idiot youtubers giving out misinformation, and creating stigmas about platforms that really have a lot of potential. You can make anything fast if you build it and run it correctly for its design strengths and weaknesses. Shit, you can throw ring gap in a Prius, and throw a K03 on it and probably make it toot and scoot. Often it’s human error, but we live in a society where it’s somehow better to open your mouth at all, even if nothing but shit comes out. I often notice guys talk about shit they have absolutely no idea about. Remember kids, it’s cooler to admit you don’t know shit about something, rather than dig a grave down to dumbassville and embarrass yourself trying to sound cool or smart. The car community is riddled with this mindset.
I really want to see an intake manifold test for the 5.0 ford motor. I want to see the new Holley hi ram as well as the truck flow edelbrock ones, there is no tests like that I can find anywhere and want to make a more informed choice to buy one.
Could you try doing a comparison between blow through carb vs tbi (such as fitech or sniper) and a multiport system on a turbo or centrifugal supercharger?
Keep the Ford Videos coming Richard!!!!!!!! Love to see some 351w Videos .... Ford big Bangs .... Maybe even some after market block test. Thanks for all the great content you have been putting out !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lil late here hehe, I'm from outside of USA and in my country there is no easy way of fabricating this as the culture here isn't as diy and really there aren't much Sport cars or at least sub 2000 there are quite exotic, for some reason mustangs are quite the easy find but almost all are 2.3l o que 3.8 not 5.0 so aftermarket and classic car people here see them as a 🦄 and prices are super high but anyway back to the point You could actually sell a kit with all of the components for building this kit and people in the us or outside the us as me that just want the complete pack bought and shipped directly to your house through Amazon or eBay, and most importantly in this cases, to get things that works and have been done by a guy that has all well documented and is experimented so can give grate instructions and visual guide as this video. Could be some packages like light NA Bolton's, full NA Bolton's, Full NA and turbo, and for the guys out there that look for the nitrous or methanol injection a stand alone pack, ash the fox body and 93-95 sn95 engine bay is the same it can be cross gen and would get a lot of support in the international community as you seem of what you're talking about (let's not forget tuning you could give a file with the turbo kit or as a separate) So people can build as they have the money or enjoy the process, have a trusted source and you make some bucks in the process (please don't try to get rich with the kit the exchange rate for dollars in my country is very high and a fully prepared car costs an eye, don make it an eye, a kidney, the other eye and the other kidney 🥺) Love your content sorry for my English, hope to hear what you think 👍🏽
I know this is an older video, but thanks for doing it. Love the other guys vids, they are AWESOME!!! Don't run yourself into the ground dude. Get some rest. I think most of us won't mind too much if the pace of vids falls off a little. The content is great! Thanks again.
I did something very similar on a 2001 Jeep Cherokee 4.0. It has a 3 to 1, 3 to 1 stainless steel header, custom y pipe/up pipe, heavily modified 96-98 intake, Edelbrock head, small Comp Cam that is bigger than stock and a single turbo. It's running 9psi of boost. The power from 2k to 5k is amazing. Haven't had it on a dyno to know exactly what the power is. It easily out accelerates my 15 Silverado that has smaller tires and better gear splits in the transmission.
Finally a ford 5.0 do-it-yourself garage turbo build. Just my recommendation but could you touch more on the tuning and specification side. What kind of eBay Turbo? What timing and air/fuel ratio do you recommend? Subscribed!
These stock block , stock bottom 5.0's HATE RPM. Harmonics will literally snap the crankshaft in half at the #2 main if you rev above 6k regularly. Rev to 6500+ and it's lifespan is 5-15 hours of race use. And it will leave you scratching your head because harmonics don't leave any evidence behind. Happened 3 times in 2 years racing in 24 hours of Lemons. Only way around it is aftermarket block and forged rotating assembly that is INTERNALLY neutral balanced instead of 50oz external.... which costs around $3500 when you could just get a 5.3L for $600. The guys that made theirs last were long time fox body tuners with a rev limit at 5500rpm. Powerwise , they'll handle 550rwhp +/- 30hp before breaking the block, every time.
There is a big difference between between the early 28.2 and later 50oz inch 302/5.0 crankshafts. Obviously. You can physically feel the difference in the balance in the damper by the difference in the cut. The earlier crankshafts are reputed to be stronger as well and I don't know if this true but I can imagine that the early cranks that have a lower balance won't have as many issues if you want to Rev them over 6k regularly.
Good to see you here I'm a subscribe and loved all your exhaust experiments with e46 swapped 5.0!!! .That being said I agreey buddy had a stock bottom end on a turbo for upwards of 15 years he mad a best of 409 hp to the wheels and 468 torque and it ran like a champ but he shifted at 5400 no higher . Believe or not it survived many years ona stock t5 . He mad a home made jig to add bigger valve reliefs and was almost done and gouged a big nick in the cylinder wall so it wasnt worth spending the money money to repair . He built a dart 363 kept turbo and it made with same turbo 650 hp 754 torque at 5200 rpm lol he couldn't go higher as he re an out of fuel with 120lb injectors.
Just think what the 60's could have been like. If turbos were so commonly available! A factory BB Chevelle, with twin turbos, 700 hp derated , the population should probably be much lower !
What 60’s car can hang with a modern muscle car stock for stock? A stock mustang GT would destroy a Boss 429. We are living in the biggest performance age! I love old muscle cars, but no comparison in performance.
I would like to know the same thing. Was looking at different ones last night. With H/C/I, which Ebay GT45 is the best trim choice? More wisdom please Rich, great work.
I bet it would make a little more power in each form (N/A, NOS, and PSI) with a better flowing exhaust system. Those factory shorty's look like they are punished! LOL, but overall, I liked the test because you used common salvage yard stuff.
Can we please get the details on exactly which trim GT-45 turbo you used or recommend for this type of package? Which heads were used in this test. Great videos......I even enjoy all the LS videos and I'm TRUE BLUE. Always love your content.
I don’t know I found I was doing the no helmet thing when I started. Now experienced, I always find myself just putting the helmet on from start to finish. And obviously lifting between welding
Unless I'm welding upside down directly underneath something I usually omit the helmet. Most of the bench stuff I end up using gloves and a 4" glass lol.
Ok, so we talked about splitting blocks in your last Ford video. Now I'm curious, we know torque is the enemy, especially at lower RPMs, can you make *more* power NA by winding the motor high? Can you, or have you, made 600HP NA with a 302? That's 120HP/l, which I would have thought is unobtanium with a pushrod motor until recently, but I think with the right combo you could do that.
Richard in your opinion, what is the maximum of boost you can run on engine. Before you need to open it and gap the rings? Or what boost pressure would you recommend for a untouched bottom end daily driver?
Seems like he mentioned that in another video. Safely 7-8psi is what's been mentioned in some circles. Kinda like the turbo kits for totally stock vehicles. Some of those are 5lbs max.
Its not a boost level, its ring temperature. Things that change ring temp include boost, inlet air temp (intercooler or not), fuel used (E85 is better), timing, amount of time under boost and load (WOT for 1-30 minutes even at low boost can be bad) just gap them for long term use
@@Turbo_Todd thank u. 5-7 psi seems to be the norm around GM supercharged vehicles. Not sure about the Buick grand national or the later cobalt SS psi.
Richard, Great video as always. Quick Question. You refer to the XE274HR Cam and say it's one of your favorites for the SBF. I'm looking to rebuild my tired old 254K mile 302 in my 90 Fox Convertible. I like the stock cam drivability when compared to my other cars running various Ford alphabet cams. Even the mild E303 tends to be unhappy at anything below 1500rpm and causes the car to buck at low speeds. We have tracked every vacume line and seal on the motor to ensure all is correct and we just can't get rid of the bucking. Would the XE274HR have the same bucking issues as the E303? If so, what cam have you seen out there that would give near stock drivability and idle while making a little more power?
Richard, I have a question for you. I am running 8.5-1 compression. How does that effect the timing when running a Turbo @ 5.5psi in regards to detonation?
Hey Richard, can you do a test on the Windsor block with standard head, tds or after market option heads and put Cleveland aftermarket heads, with this turbo setup?
Yes! Finally more Ford videos, thank you

The amount of money I’ve saved through just watching these guys experiment with different diff ratios and different turbos and superchargers
Thing ran pretty good NA - 350-375 lb/ft from 3300-5700.
That's not a torque curve; that's a torque tabletop
Pretty impressive for a 5.0
plateau
I agree that engine N/A set up would be so much fun to drive on the street. Endless torque is so much better than a huge turbo spike IMHO.
@@bill2178 stock 5.0 runs pretty good if you give it some more air, fuel and timing
good heads and good intake plus good duration on the cam to take advantage of it all. 224 and 232
Please try a BigBang on a 351w.
Keep them coming 👍🏻
I remember when MM&FF tried that...they ran out of wastegate springs just over 1000hp and tried to modulate boost with the throttle...which ended up with big swings in the boost coming on and off and eventually scattering the bottom end.

@@carportshenanigans5918 that was also him testing that i believe lol
That test was our hero of the dynos, none other than Richard Holdener himself
Yeah! I'd love to see the limits of a F4TE 351W!
Why would I deny doing something so awesome? There is more left in a 351W
Perfect!! Just the 5.0 ford stuff I was looking for prior to jumping into our 302 turbo build
Thanks!!!
Do a big bang on a 302. I wanna know of the blocks rly do split down the middle
I know why it's in the playlist, but it's still funny that the first video in the SBF NA power playlist is "DIY EBAY TURBO 5.0L-BUILDING BOOST!"
Knowledge for the ages! You have saved us so much time and money testing setups!!
We split a 302 block on the dyno right at 800hp. It split right down the middle. It was at 15lbs of boost. Then we made some braces in the lifter valley and a better girdle and it lived after that boost level and it went in a customer’s fox body and ran 9.0’s and 8.90’s for about 2 years before he changed the set up.

I really feel like the average hot rod guys and girls could do a lot of damage with a 550 hp small block! Good job Richard as always.
I was watching the video and thinking that LS looks funny
Pass the weed
Awesome to see some 5.0 turbo love.
I have the same turbo on mine and also using a Holley computer I'm already at 6.3psi and wanting 10-12 keeping the rpm down and the timing low let see how far this 302 can go
How’s the car doing? I just picked up a vs racing 7875 and looking for the same result
302 Chevy VS 302 Ford!! I know any motor of a given displacement will make about the same power but I would love to see a junk yard 302 Chevy build. Vortec 5.7L 4.00” bore block, pistons, & heads with the L99 3.00” stroke crank and 5.94” rods!! LT4 hot cam kit or better!
-does the 4.9L 302 SBC kill the 5.0L 305 SBC?
-does the 4.9L 302 SBC loose out to the 5.0L HO Ford??
-carb VS TPI + boost
Thanks for the great videos. Request a test of all the Ford racing cams for the SBF in the future.

I did that test way back-one of my first at Westech,
Looks like a backyard build. I love backyard builds.

It gets lonely at 1 am on the dyno
This video perfectly illustrates why many of us old Ford guys are LS guys now.
way back in the 80's my friend split his block right down the lifter valley, he was running quite a bit of NOS.
Love the open ports while welding 😂😂
Rich, can you do a video where you purposely split the block? Just like when you ran that SBC with no oil.
should be easy, just put the timing back in at the bottom and itll split in half at current hp/torque levels. lol
You could even score the block and it will peel away from the internals nice and clean.
I vote a test on stock blocks with arp studs, sbf, And sbc. Hell I’ll donate the sbc block.
Hell I'll donate the 318 SBM and GT45
She was really happy at 7.8 psi lol thinking about doing a twin turbo kit on my foxbody just for my daily driver lol
Could you try doing a comparison between blow through carb vs tbi (such as fitech or sniper) and a multiport system on a turbo or centrifugal supercharger?

11.8:1 AF, timing as 22 at power peak, Ebay turbo was GT45 clone fro DNA
These stock block , stock bottom 5.0's HATE RPM. Harmonics will literally snap the crankshaft in half at the #2 main if you rev above 6k regularly. Rev to 6500+ and it's lifespan is 5-15 hours of race use. And it will leave you scratching your head because harmonics don't leave any evidence behind. Happened 3 times in 2 years racing in 24 hours of Lemons. Only way around it is aftermarket block and forged rotating assembly that is INTERNALLY neutral balanced instead of 50oz external.... which costs around $3500 when you could just get a 5.3L for $600. The guys that made theirs last were long time fox body tuners with a rev limit at 5500rpm. Powerwise , they'll handle 550rwhp +/- 30hp before breaking the block, every time.
There is a big difference between between the early 28.2 and later 50oz inch 302/5.0 crankshafts. Obviously. You can physically feel the difference in the balance in the damper by the difference in the cut. The earlier crankshafts are reputed to be stronger as well and I don't know if this true but I can imagine that the early cranks that have a lower balance won't have as many issues if you want to Rev them over 6k regularly.

Canton main girdle, eagle steel rods , crank , and forged diamond pistons . Then your good to go .

Try that with downs ford upper intake manifold! Made just under 900 hp with intake change out 720 hp well know upper and lower
have tested the downs Ford box upper-it (like all the others) loses power through much of the curve from short runners

Richard in your opinion, what is the maximum of boost you can run on engine. Before you need to open it and gap the rings? Or what boost pressure would you recommend for a untouched bottom end daily driver?
Great question
Seems like he mentioned that in another video. Safely 7-8psi is what's been mentioned in some circles. Kinda like the turbo kits for totally stock vehicles. Some of those are 5lbs max.
Its not a boost level, its ring temperature. Things that change ring temp include boost, inlet air temp (intercooler or not), fuel used (E85 is better), timing, amount of time under boost and load (WOT for 1-30 minutes even at low boost can be bad) just gap them for long term use
@@Turbo_Todd thank u. 5-7 psi seems to be the norm around GM supercharged vehicles. Not sure about the Buick grand national or the later cobalt SS psi.
@@richardholdener1727 thank you Richard for replying. Not the specific answer I was looking for, but knowledge is power.
Great video - thanks
I love it!!! I'm doing something similar for my vw
Early birds get the worms
Can you do some testing on a Magnum 318 ?
Seriously thinking about boosting my OBS Bronco/5.0 w/Explorer intake?
Richard, Great video as always. Quick Question. You refer to the XE274HR Cam and say it's one of your favorites for the SBF. I'm looking to rebuild my tired old 254K mile 302 in my 90 Fox Convertible. I like the stock cam drivability when compared to my other cars running various Ford alphabet cams. Even the mild E303 tends to be unhappy at anything below 1500rpm and causes the car to buck at low speeds. We have tracked every vacume line and seal on the motor to ensure all is correct and we just can't get rid of the bucking.
Would the XE274HR have the same bucking issues as the E303? If so, what cam have you seen out there that would give near stock drivability and idle while making a little more power?
try the smaller 258, or 264 cams-there are 2 258 cams-one is high lift
Nice work
Great Channel!
Great video.....gets the wheels turning.
Richard, I have a question for you. I am running 8.5-1 compression. How does that effect the timing when running a Turbo @ 5.5psi in regards to detonation?
allows bigger safe tuning window
With that cam.. would have been a nasty street motor
Would like to see SBF 363 and SBF 408 Stroker, hp and weight comparison.
Very informative, on LS platform, I know SBF can throw some big punches
I've done over 1000 hp with a Dart 363 SHP
I'm undecisive if I should go with Dart 363 supercharged or 408 NA setup for my 70 ford maverick. Very informative with all your cams profiles
Hey richard, you ever play with the nissan vg30 or vq35 engines? Plenty of junkyard potential there
Do this with a 383 sbc or something like that. Ivd been wanting to do it to my car
Hey Richard, can you do a test on the Windsor block with standard head, tds or after market option heads and put Cleveland aftermarket heads, with this turbo setup?
The was meant to say tfs not tds
The trouble with TDS is, they burn your city down and defund the police. I hope they find a cure.
What would you say a “safe” amount of boost would be along with pushing it and then guaranteed catastrophe
7 psi
I subscribed just because of this video!
Hello, What is the blueprint head model number. Thank you
