Just wanted to say thank you, I recently purchased a 1986 Ford Mustang LX that was set up for DRAG but the guy lost his motor to a friend (long story but I was able to purchase it - cheap) and now I am in the process or learning process of rebuilding a used 302 with a bout 60K on it and I have gotten a few add-ons with it. Edlebrbock Performance Intake, Cam, matching lifters and new timing chain and gears. I am SUPER excited to start and finish this project and your videos will be very helpful. I have a few relatives that are the back bone of most of the stuff I do when it comes down to engines. They have done it their whole lives and when I found these videos it really got me excited to see the light at the end of the tunnel to get this car completed. I just started to pull the heads off the engine and I am going to port and polish them as well once I get the new gaskets etc. I hope to keep you up to speed on my progress maybe with my own videos WILL SEE!
I would never tighten one bolt to the max and then the other. I do one bolt until I feel resistance and then the other. Then back and forth adding more pressure evenly applied across the plate until fully torqued.
I have the same motor in my 72 Grande. I worked a school year and a summer to buy it from the shop I was working at the time. I'm currently restoring it but I am lucky I found you this is all a real help in the process I looked at your interior videos. That is as far as i am right now the motor luckily has only 33k miles but it definitely needs a clean up as poor as it runs at times. Keep posting this stuff i love it
Permatex discontinued the ultra slick. A good alternative I have heard but haven't tried it is the Lucas Assembly Lube. In Autozone it can be found over on the area where they keep their diesel stuff. I don't see any problem with the ultra slick. All seems like is some really heavy weight oil. The best lube is the stuff that comes in a tub because as you can see even though the ultra slick is extremely thick you can see it run off the cam. I could see it running off and thinning out on the lobes if it takes longer than around 3 days to put the engine back together. The stuff in the tub don't run and resembles grease more. Also packing behind the face plate with vasoline is acceptable similar to how you would pack an oil pump's gears. Although I think your engine will be OK with this lube but it kind of fall in the category as old type lube since there has been better strides in the tech of assembly lube. It's kind of similar to using Indian head gasket sealer when there are better options. It works just fine but is considered old tech.
@@Archifx LMAO. That’s the funniest and most ridiculous statement I’ve ever heard of. You’ve obviously never worked in an environment where toes can get crushed by falling objects. How about a flywheel, ring gear side down on your toes. Or a MaDuce falling on your foot? Or a cylinder head falling over and hitting your little baby toes? Big time pain and probable long term damage. I could go on, but why waste my time arguing with you and your diminished ability to see.
If you installing on a stand, roll the engine upside down so any of the dragging the cam along the bearings (and it happens) is done to the top of the bearing where the cam doesn't seat.
cheater trick, long 3/8-NC bolt, or a side handle for a drill that uses a 3/8 thread. Works great as a cam handle. Handle is better, but more people have bolts laying around.
I’ve been wanting to do a cam on my 94 gt... my question is, do the heads have to be done or can I just do the cam? I don’t want to go to far on the motor, just want a little more throaty sound
Might be to late for you I did my 94 but I got a 347 put comp hr236 I think is what it was lift is 565/576 duration 230/232 I like comp I have used comp before in small block chevy with good results split duration is always good ford stuff like the e cam is straight across the board comp makes a better cam than this cam you should give them a call or even call jegs or summit racing and ask them I think they will tell you the same thing just trying to help out another gearhead like me and someone told me this same thing that iam telling you bud just want to see you make horsepower and your car sound good everybody wants the hotrod sound too
I talked to a guy from Summit Racing. He said the comp cam will wok in my stock 302 motor without changing anything else in the motor. I also looks at the Edelbrock Performer Intake Manifold as well.
I am doin a E303 right now in a semi budget Semi Street / Daily build 1985 5.0 H.O. Roller Motor "M-Code" .... lookin for some more power Anyone know what I can expect? lol...

Goin thru the motors bottom end but not replacing shit unless bad stuff... Only Rings and bearings for sure... Comp Cams Double Roller Timing Chain of course... Car also had when i bought it 3:73 Gears in 8.8 Rear, Frame Connectors and Torque Boxes and that Dura- mat under the carpets back into the trunk.......The previous built and restored the entire car spent a fortune on resto including 3,500. paint and prep job Regatta Blue but left the motor stock... I'm gonna finish it lol...
Absolutely buddy. Thanks for following me. I have a TON of videos and photos coming up on this ol' 302. Check out 302budgetbuild(dot)com and mach1restoration(dot)com for all the photos and videos. I run both of those websites and I posted a lot of great content on there. Good luck with your build.
Howards makes a far better cam, 219 @.50 on both intake and exhaust, but with 1.7 rocker arms lift gets to .578 just under .600 that is supported by most aftermarket heads.
Hey do you know if I can put a 1995 5.0 mustang engine in a Ford F-150 1995 with the 5.0 EFI do you know what changes or parts I need to replace to fit this in my truck ?
I know I may come across a little ignorant on the subject but I am selling a 74 bronco project to a friend as he is more into them and practically bullied me into it. He is taking the engine of another one of his projects to replace it though so I am going to still have the motor. I was going to put it into an 84 rx7 and was wondering if there was anything I would need to change in order for it to be more for speed rather than for torque? Basically I am looking to make a car I can drive in normally but could say take to a local drag strip and still have some fun there. Thanks for your help, Alex
My son and I are wanting to rebuild the original motor 302 5.0 Back ground Original 5.0 142,000 miles Runs good Question shop wants to rebuild it for $3500 and I'm wondering if I should ask about giving it a little more power not much. What should I ask for in hp? 100 200? Not looking for a drag car but just a little bit more. Thanks
Hey just got an 88 foxbody GT with GT40 heads and intake and it has a cam in it already but it’s not a very big one because it barely lopes or chops. I bought a 90 fox 2 years ago that I know had an E303 cam because it chopped HARD and sounded amazing! I really want to throw an E cam in my 88 but not sure what all I need for it besides the cam itself. Lifters? Pushrods? Springs? Valves? Please help me out!
ok now I'm ready to go. thanks a million, now to get my frozen distributor out I can get started. can you help in the timing and valve lash. got a magnum 270h comp cam
Good job, nice explanation too=) Question for you: replacing different can into my Mustang 3.8 litre V6, putting XTreme Energy in with stiffer springs, of course. Do I need to replace cam bearings, or can I just replace cam? Car has 180000 miles on it? Thanks=)
ok boys need some help, I have a flat tappet 351w in my bronco and I want to use the comp cam extreme 4x4 low end cam in it, do I need to remove lifters and need new springs for a cam like this or can I just remove my dizzy and old cam and slide the new one in and way to go
Hello very good video. I have a stock used ford 302 roller motor and I want convert it to 302 ho to drop it in a 1986 Ford F-150, I am looking for torque and horsepower at low rpm but with a bit of rough idle I am going to purchase aluminum heads 190cc runner 2.02 intake with 1.6 exhaust and stainless steel roller rockers with 1.6 ratio. I already have a edelbrock dual plain intake with a 500 cfm edelbrock carb. What type of camshaft do you recommend me to install ? according to the parts I have. Thanks in advance
I have a lot of bolt on upgrades on my 5.0 exhaust long tube headers ,tb , intake and so on but I have not upgraded my top end can I use this with the stock heads?
cool i always go to the hardware store and get as long a bolt as possible and screw it in the end of the cam it gives more leverage at the end it's way easier than the stock bolt lenghth
Can anybody tell me what the advantage if an "overhead" cam? I'm thinking about the 1950's era classics, like the '57 Chevy, such as was popular in drag races. As I recall, there was a big performance advantage, but they were against the rules.
+Mary Tudor Overhead cam engines have better volumetric efficiency. Back then with flat head engines (L-head engines) they had the cams and the valves in the block rather than in the head and with this design the air/fuel mixture didn't burn as well. F-head engines came later which were a little better because it was a cross-flow design which had a valve in the block and also in the head, but V.E. was still not so great; although it did improve it still wasn't the best. So later OHV and OHC (Single Overhead Cam and Dual Overhead Cam) engines were developed which greatly increased V.E. because the cams were right above the valves which resulted in less moving parts and less friction which result in more power. They were probable banned because it was so good and not many people had them.
Need some help with getting oil pressure in a 72 302. It has been hot tanked and has a new oil pump and has the shaft in it to drive the oil pump. can hear the oil moving in the block but nothing is coming up to the head. any Ideas? I have been using a drill to try and build up the pressure.
Just found your video while researching what to do on a 92 f150 flareside I have with a 302. I've already bought a donor it's in a 93 f150 I picked up cheap. I went to your website and will be using it to reference a lot of the build but I probably won't be switching to carburetor. One question I have is how much horsepower did you end up with after the build? Lastly I wanted to thank you for making and posting the videos and creating the website, I have a feeling they're going to be very helpful for my build.
7:00 mark- That "Thrust Plate bearing assembly" is a whopping 130. bux. hahha better clean it up...Must be very important ..I Bought a new one... How much HP did you end up with ya think????
*assembly lube* is it used so that when the engine first starts, the components are not running dry one versus another? is it for those few moments before engine oil comes onto the components and lubricates them? anyone please?
Okay geta bolt that is about 6 to 8 Long screw the bolts on the end of the cam.. Then lube the entire cam with that lube that you're you are using..Then stick the whole came in all at once.. Don't make the job any harder than it has to be..
Check the engine bay. There should be a Vehicle Emmision Control Information label, looks kind of like a sticker. Just skim through it to find the displacement. If you dont find it or is unreadable check your driver side door, low chance the engine displacement might be there but worth a shot.
Sorta of a random question. But I have a 95 f150 302 all stock . I am going to swap the heads to a gt40 and swap the cam (thanks for the awesome video) for a e303 cam . Do I need to flash my ecm or flash anything before I tear something up?
I've been wondering the same question. I have a 1989 302 in my Bronco and been wondering how the OBD-I Speed Velocity system will react to the e303 cam.
Skitter302 e303 idle like a shit on speed density or sn95 computer, they had a couple of cam which are compatible with speed density or sn95 computer like comp cam xe270hr-14, steeda 19, afm b-21 and more. Just a tip dont go with a 110 lsa, go with 112 lsa or more.
Ok i finally swapped the heads and cam. Everything runs great (didnt need to flash)except didn't quite get the power i was expecting and im only getting 6-7mpg

Very precision job; excellent video; thanks for all the tips and warnings to avoid mistakes !!!!!! Looks like you have done a few of these !!!!
this video helped by the way i do appreciate it, i just installed my E303 cam in my 1994 Mustang GT 5.0L V8...
last leg on a 302? no way lol those little buggers are tough :p
What's the biggest cam I can go with on a 302 without changing heads or anything
You just gave me the confidence to do my own cam
Good work. Can't wait to see that motor purr and work in the truck.
Thanks! I appreciate the positive feedback!
Fix It Now. Hello how can tell if the engine have a hydraulic cam or a roller cam
If you installing on a stand, roll the engine upside down so any of the dragging the cam along the bearings (and it happens) is done to the top of the bearing where the cam doesn't seat.
You know what would make installing that cam even easier? Just stick a screwdriver in the end.. little bit more leverage than that tiny cam bolt 👍
Can't believe you only have 1900 subscribers. Great videos man, I subbed. I'll try to spread the word!
cheater trick, long 3/8-NC bolt, or a side handle for a drill that uses a 3/8 thread. Works great as a cam handle. Handle is better, but more people have bolts laying around.

Ever thought about using a longer bolt.
Awesome thank you
Great job man!!! Great video. I love learning new things and you are great at teaching and doing video.💪👍
There's a tool for cam installation. Or use a longer bolt, or a set of Vice Grips on stock cam gear bolt.
If you use a long bolt you can hold the cam up all the way back into motor

Ugh I just dealt with them. 114 inch/lbs. NOT ft/lbs. in my unprofessional opinion those two bolts are undersized.
Thanks for good video information, helps much.

What should I ask for in hp?
100
200?

225 is reasonable. Check out my website 302budgetbuild.com it may give you some ideas

great video series. after the swap. what carb did you use? Original roller distributors with coil, msd or HEI type to match up with E303 cam ?
Thanks. Great video
ok now I'm ready to go. thanks a million, now to get my frozen distributor out I can get started. can you help in the timing and valve lash. got a magnum 270h comp cam
Settings on the heads?
Good job, nice explanation too=) Question for you: replacing different can into my Mustang 3.8 litre V6, putting XTreme Energy in with stiffer springs, of course. Do I need to replace cam bearings, or can I just replace cam? Car has 180000 miles on it? Thanks=)
these motors hard to blow up
I notice you didn't tighten the camshaft to factory spec... are you gonna do so? great vid btw!
also can you show us how to increase the idle on the 302 with the IAC?
ok boys need some help, I have a flat tappet 351w in my bronco and I want to use the comp cam extreme 4x4 low end cam in it, do I need to remove lifters and need new springs for a cam like this or can I just remove my dizzy and old cam and slide the new one in and way to go

great video! helped alot!
Did you replace the cam bearings? If so what replacement did you use?
theres no gasket for that cam cover?
You said this cam is mainly for torque but how much added hp is it giving you?
Some say e303 cam is best installed up
If I install a f303 on my 5.0 mustang wat else would I need
What is the torque requirement on the cam retainer bolts?
What is the best cam for all around performance
Do u have to get da number 1piston down to put ur cam in I have a good runin 283 what to put a 280 in it let me no
Would you recommend locktite on cam bolt?
Where do you but the also grease?
cool i always go to the hardware store and get as long a bolt as possible and screw it in the end of the cam it gives more leverage at the end it's way easier than the stock bolt lenghth
would like to see the degree wheel in action...
what would be an equivalent cam to this for a 289?
what are you torquing your bolts at ?
How much is this build costing you??? And is the bottom end all new too???
What block do u recommend for the build. A 302w
On timing chain replacement is there a certain rotation for the camshaft to be in for top dead center of crank
Yes, theres timing marks. Easiest would be lined up at 12 oclock or “dot to dot”.
what transmission were you going to use for this build?
Can anybody tell me what the advantage if an "overhead" cam? I'm thinking about the 1950's era classics, like the '57 Chevy, such as was popular in drag races. As I recall, there was a big performance advantage, but they were against the rules.

Ya can prob find ya a longer bolt that would fit on the cam
why you dont use a longer bolt and not that short one.. get one of these long waterpump bolts and no Problem to get the cam in...

Just found your video while researching what to do on a 92 f150 flareside I have with a 302. I've already bought a donor it's in a 93 f150 I picked up cheap.

Lastly I wanted to thank you for making and posting the videos and creating the website, I have a feeling they're going to be very helpful for my build.
No problem man. It was turning right at 325hp when finished
Pretty healthy increase hope I can get the same (my 92 is rated at 190 hp stock)
Friction is where power is lost. Do the roller lifters and rockers, port and polish the heads as much as possible and be clean with your build.
Can u use these on a 302 with stock heads? Also does cam need new springs and lifters?
The engine has stock heads. You need new springs, rods and rockers.

Ii4m yes
thank you
Do you have to degree the cam ?
Only if you want it to go to college.
I wasn’t trying to be a dick lol. I was just messin with you. I didn’t degree this one or the previous build and they both run strong. No issues.
Nah your all good bro I thought it as funny 😂. Thanks for the info! Gonna install my E-cam tomorrow.
Kick ass man. Good luck.
No reason to apologize for comfort
Okay geta bolt that is about 6 to 8 Long screw the bolts on the end of the cam.. Then lube the entire cam with that lube that you're you are using..Then stick the whole came in all at once.. Don't make the job any harder than it has to be..
Did u degree this cam I'm wanting to install a b303 but not sure if i need to degree it.
Lui David you dont have to with ford it is simply line the dots up
i have a 1985 v8 crown vic ltd how do i knw if it is a 5.0 or a 5.8
Check the engine bay. There should be a Vehicle Emmision Control Information label, looks kind of like a sticker. Just skim through it to find the displacement. If you dont find it or is unreadable check your driver side door, low chance the engine displacement might be there but worth a shot.
Sorta of a random question. But I have a 95 f150 302 all stock . I am going to swap the heads to a gt40 and swap the cam (thanks for the awesome video) for a e303 cam . Do I need to flash my ecm or flash anything before I tear something up?
I've been wondering the same question. I have a 1989 302 in my Bronco and been wondering how the OBD-I Speed Velocity system will react to the e303 cam.
Skitter302 e303 idle like a shit on speed density or sn95 computer, they had a couple of cam which are compatible with speed density or sn95 computer like comp cam xe270hr-14, steeda 19, afm b-21 and more.
Just a tip dont go with a 110 lsa, go with 112 lsa or more.
Ok i finally swapped the heads and cam. Everything runs great (didnt need to flash)except didn't quite get the power i was expecting and im only getting 6-7mpg

You have a video of it running?
did you have to change out lifters/pushrods to different length? if so which measurements were they?
