If you are going to do a part 2 to this. You could put a Coyote 5.0ltr engine and a Crown Victoria front end. This will give you disc breaks and coil over socks. Plus the Coyote is an Aluminum block to reduce weight in the front end over the iron block and 380hp 425hp in stock form. Then another plus is a 6r80 transmission or 10r80. This would make it a totally different truck. The main advantage of this is to put the numbers matching engine and transmission in a safe place. So you can drive and play with out chancing the oem parts. Just an ideal to try.
My stock 351 Windsor 1996 F-150 can do 0- 60 in 8.4 seconds with some small tires. I can't believe how much of a speed improvement they made over the years! Nothing makes me feel broke like somebody saying "It was next to no money"....... $7,000.... 😬 I'm here thinking that would pay for a turbo kit......
That short-block was worn out and had a ridge at the top of the cylinders. It needed a complete rebuild. That same top-end kit makes well over 400hp (crank) on a fresh short-block.
Not only they didn't add headers to the 351 Windsor V8 but they also didn't port and polish the Aftermarket Aluminium heads and intake manifold they got from Eldbrock.
@@bobbyliendo7406my 351w has around that hp stock. I could get way more power than they did for less than 7 grand even in Canada. The numbers they got for the price doesn't even make sense.
Everyone hating on the numbers but if you look at the dyno graph the numbers were still climbing. They stopped at 5,300rpm like wtf. Take it to 6,400rpm next time.
I enjoyed this build and the truck turned out really nice. But man why did they reuse the exhaust manifolds? Were they purposely trying to make the 351w look bad?
Yes, they have always been bias, Chevy fan boys. For example when they built a 4.9l 300 straight six, one of the knobs drops the block and cracks it. Then says “if it was a Chevy this wouldn’t have happened”. really? He dropped the block down stairs and blamed the manufacturer 🤦🏽♂️
Exactly my thoughts why bother with the top end kit getting air and fuel in if your gonna choke off it off on the exhaust a stock 302 with the same top end kit and 150k miles would at least make 290 to the wheel. Either there bowtie bias or dont know what there doing? Which is it boys? Prove me wrong with episode 3.
Not only they didn't put headers on the 351 Windsor V8 but they also didn't port and polished the Eldbrock Aluminium heads and intake manifold and thats 30 HP right there its missing along with 20 HP right there for not putting headers on.
Most of the goosenecks I see people put safety chain hooks on the front holes keeping the trailer from going as far and tearing more shit up on the truck
@@erictickler9320 seems to me there are lots of other ground return paths through the hookup and I'm pretty sure there's a ground connection in the electrical connection itself. No grease on the ball seems to me to introduce serious wear on a critical component
@@RobertArthur007 I used to think that also untill I Iifted my utility trailer off my ball hitch with the electical still connected to the truck with the lights on and received a small shock. Its always better to be safer than sorry... In all my years of pulling trailers, the ball hitches have never worn to the point of being a problem..
Well had they ported and polished the Eldbrock Aluminium heads and intake manifold as well as add headers to the 351 Windsor V8 then man that Windsor V8 would've gain 50 HP which with those mods that old 351 Windsor would make around 430 HP at the crank and about 390 HP at the rear wheels (which would be more than you're stock NA Honda LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!)
A bored out Windsor can get 450 horsepower with some more modifications. Practically speaking, just the bolt on stuff they have on this build makes for a very fun truck. I know because that's what mine has on it right now.
$7K in just drop shackles, a ring gear, a Cam, heads and a carb and no headers? WOW 😳 guess 🤔 parts have tripled in $$$ this past year .. or does this include $300/hr labor? Impressive 0-60 gain though.
What happened to the custom paint job? What happened to the 400 HP? It’s like the production company just wanted the content and short changed the project. Especially after all the work involved. Kinda lame.
Love the build but the hoarsepower seems low its not even a hoarsepower per cubic inch any 302 or 351 would make at least 290 to the wheel with the same top end kit. seems lazy even with 389 gears

These guys are definitely pro GM. Where was the 400HP ? Should have installed headers/exhaust!
Hey guys, Incase you didnt know LT has his own channel here on the u tubes. He's got some fresh projects just finishing up, you should check him out!
LT does a lot of cool shit on his channel @Lawrence LT Tolman
Enjoyed the video, it's a great looking truck! Thanks for keeping the Ford engine under the hood!
I cannot believe it only made 2XX hp, with that top end. I'd be very disappointed with anything under 300 at the tires in any V8.. even an old Ford 💯
For real
I thought they were expecting 400??

Torque and horsepower seems a bit low for those mods to a 351w. Specifically the torque
no headers...

Yea, I agree. Heads/cam/intake should get you well past 400 crank hp regardless. Even at only 9.3:1 compression.
Not only they didn't add headers to the 351 Windsor V8 but they also didn't port and polish the Aftermarket Aluminium heads and intake manifold they got from Eldbrock.
Thank you both great video to view with plenty of Laughter ...... :)
7g, lol....budget minded. That 7g in my 01 Vic would be noice
You can do the same thing to a chevy for $3000 of that $7000 or for $800 do an ls junkyard swap
Right

Frickin cool!!! Bravissimi!!!
That horsepower you got from a 351 is embarrassing. Even figuring for driverrain loss those are late 80s 302 numbers.
They didn't add headers nor port and polished the aluminum heads.
I thought the same thing
@@CJColvin the heads they used were way too small for a 351.
@@andycampbell6032 Right

It's because they typical Chevy guys and don't know the real potential of the small block Ford.

@@dbonwheels episode 3 doesn’t exist. Not sure if the truck was unpopular or what but it never returned after this
They make a kit to lock out the cam phasers and remove that point of failure.
I hope you'd do a compact truck the next time, so Jeremy looks like a normal-size adult. Maybe a LUV or Courier?
….or a Suzuki Mighty Boy 🤣
Stock exhaust manifolds???
Yeah this made me cringe when I first saw it. That was at least 20hp right there. Who puts aluminum heads on a sbf and not put headers on it 🤦♂️

Nice job. What about a dodge Dakota in the 87 to 96 years.
Nice build
I love old school.
The lesson I learned from this is upgrade the entire front to back. Intake needs to match exhaust. Big improvement but only half way there.
agreed, i hope they end up adding some longtube headers and an offroad mid pipe.
What size tires did y'all use
How come you didn't put grease on hitch ball?
Never do that. the connection at the ball is part of how the trailer is grounded..

When a giant v8 makes less horsepower than my naturally aspirated Honda. Lol. Still a beautiful truck, but geez.

Didnt get anywhere near the 400hp rhey said it would have
I hear you brother
Wow real low on power. Bottom end needs a rebuild for sure.
I enjoy the builds and tips in your vids, but man, seems like 2/3 of the runtime is just commercials
You guys spelled ‘Judgment’ wrong

Better wheels and tires would have cut off far more time, for much cheaper.

Good luck 👍
7 Grande from 160 to 240 HP is crap.
Just buy a one ton truck and Don't worry about it.
Looks and sounds much better than all these ratball Subarus the young folks are ripping around in nowadays!
If you're lucky enough to have 7k as your budget for the build that's great, but calling a 7k build a budget build is not practical.
$7k is nothing for a street truck build. This is 100% a practical budget.
Not a budget for me
a ford in its natural habitat . . . being towed by a Dodge.
How old are you?
👍👍🇺🇲
7k is now budget.🤦🏼♂️
