@@kingshawn1857 The only inline 6 I've driven is an AMC 258/4.2l in my uncle's 1990 Jeep Wrangler YJ Sahara with a stick shift, the engine is wearing out and it burns oil, but it has never stopped after 32 (almost 33) years! I hope to drive a Cummins or another inline 6 some day.
Hell ya! Old is new and actually better these days! I’d say the manual choke was a good idea, went with electric choke on a edelbrock 500 on my 300 and wish I’d just done manual choke

Everybody has their own opinion and to me it sounds like it needs a muffler. I have had some pretty loud cars but now that I am older I like a more refined power sound.
Honestly me too, it has a muffler but it also has an electric exhaust cutout which was open for this video. I don’t care for how the current flowmaster muffler sounds but changing it out isn’t high on my priority list right now. I actually kind of like the tinny sound of flowmasters, maybe I’ll put one on this summer.
Where'd you nab them gauges, man? Edit: nvm saw a different comment. That truck is bad as can be. You have inspired me to do a turbo 300 on my 73 Dentside. Godspeed you magnificent bastard

Stock internals and bottom end on this engine, aside from cam and valve train. Stock compression bumped up a little from having the head decked. Running 8psi
I bet that thing is a blast in the snow, all that torque and no weight.
O got a 93 single cab with the 300 and some 4.56 gears front and back, about the most fun you can
@@jaredherrera8664 my 95 can get them spinning at 50 easy in the snow with stock 2.73s

How's the performance with the ZF5 compared to the T19 (I think)?

@@TheTurnerFarm That's an awesome swap! I hope it's treating you well. :)
Those 78-79 front ends are just perfection
77💪 ugly square headlights.
@ I like em
I prefer about 76
Thing sounds like a damn tractor! Inline 6s are so underrated IMO, even now.
That gauge cluster is clean!
First and last truck you’ll ever need. Damn shame Ford stopped producing the 300
And here I was thinking I'd never get mine to sound good without a V8 swap. Very nice 👌
No wasted paycheck here bro lol had an 84 f150 i6 I'm a v8 lover to my core but I've never been more in love with a 6 cylinder engine pulled loads it had no business attempting with no fuss

@@myk1_sp sounds awesome those i6 engines I really don't understand why ford ever dropped it they should bring them back it's just a little monster
@kingshawn1857 Yeah, I guess they were "too reliable" and Americans love V8s like no tomorrow. Thankfully BMW and Mercedes still make inline 6s!
meanwhile i cant get my 300 to work lol but ur right best sounding one i have ever heard
You ever get it going?
@CaptainGoldbeered ya I swaped it 351w and zf5
@@jore551 Ah, nice
Sounds incredible!
Hell ya! Old is new and actually better these days! I’d say the manual choke was a good idea, went with electric choke on a edelbrock 500 on my 300 and wish I’d just done manual choke
Amazing sound right there, nothin runs or sounds as good a s a 300 6 cylinder
That rev limiter sounds so good 🥴
What a beast!
Love it, Love it, Love it - Great sound. I have been building early 80 - 86 Fords with 300's and never got that kind of sound.
He’s speaking the truth, men.
Great truck!
These older Fords are the only Fords I would buy...not like today's garbage.
That a bad ass ford there my friend !!!
What exhaust is it?
That is cool as can be!
Sounds awesome
When it went "frum frum frum hum frum frum frum hum" I felt that.
It does sound damn good. Almost diesel like!
Where'd ya get that gauge cluster
New Vintage USA
Do they usually sound like they have a slight missfire? like the bubbling exhuast
SO whats under there? headers and cutouts? what muffler brand type size etc?
What kind of fuel mileage are you getting with it.
Around 9.5, but my foot is to the floor most of the time

What type of distributor do you run for the efi? Looking for the proper distributor for my 300 I wanna upgrade it with a sniper efi

That is a nasty sounding 300. Approved content sir. Any plans of a turbo?
Dude… description
@@robthegobblerright didn’t read it didn’t wait till the end of the video either lol
@@Tripledoffroadbbq well, you know what to do from now on lol
I want a 300 like that for a project I have planned!
What is the exhaust setup
love it what year is she
alright I need to know where you got the gauge cluster and what cam youve got in there. clean ass truck bro
Thank you. The gauge setup is from New Vintage USA, the cam is a comp 268
@WastedPaycheckGarage what else is done to it, lol?
He cut the cats off and probably straight piped it. My 87 sounded the same but worse cus it had a misfire from bad plugs and plug wires. His actually runs good
Cool.. nice truck...
What exhaust setup u run
It's all made by me, 3" from turbo back with a Flowmaster FlowFX straight thru muffler
I heard 1 on here earlier today... didn't pay attention but it too was amazing and... sorry but it was even more radical than this but yours is awesome as well
gotta have a dirty cam on it ya? sounds the best, gonna do a factory rebuild on my 68 w straight pipe wondering if it will sound
Me like very much!
What's the combo? Compression? How much boost?....... thanks Man.
Stock internals and bottom end on this engine, aside from cam and valve train. Stock compression bumped up a little from having the head decked. Running 8psi
Very nice build how much hp ?
Guessing 300hp 400ft-lbs
BEST EVER Winner of TH-cam for sound clip. Best Ford 300. Do it better and post it yourself. Dareyah.
I bet you could pull a 18 wheeler out the ditch with that 👍👍👍
Wasn't that rig boosted at one point?
It still is, you can hear the turbo at the end when he revs it up
Awesome straight pipe sound ! Unfortunately not allowed here.....
What's that computer?
Have to agree 👍
What cam are you running
They sound camed even stock, kind of crazy although I’d bet it’s not a stock cam
What cam u running
Comp 268
more 2 step pls
Gonna go buy one of these beauts here soon
Comp 268?
Pretty sure
Yes
Yeah that's what I'm trying to do with my 78
Agreed!!!😅
Sounds like my fishing boat with a 9.5 horse evinrude outboard
The economy runs on inline engines. I make my paycheck getting 80,000.
Down the road.
Yaa
Just might be
This video is solely responsible for a 300 swap in a ‘47 half ton. The flathead V8 is a pain in the ass, out it will come.
I have a 69 f100 pickup
Sounds like a tractor
Don't know the 300l6 huh? Lol
Basically a tractor engine bud
Awwwe hell
They always sound great until you Rev it. Lol
