I cannot wait till you get her going! This is one of the most off the wall engine builds I've ever seen! Total props to you for making it all happen, most would say it's impossible and your killing it!
The amount of time, dedication, care, and amazing ingenuity you are putting into this project is crazy man, I can't wait to see where it goes and how the power is going to come in. It's gonna sound better than the barra, and I can't wait to hear it make boost!!!
I like how the down pipe turned out, cool detail. The charge pipes and headlights, that might be another challenge. Maybe some sort of pedestal? Let the tube go under the lights? Looking good, life should always come first.
I was torn between a 350 and Nv3500 5 speed or a stock fuel injected 300 and 5 speed out of a 94 f150 in my 29. After watching this the 300 is looking a bit more appealing. I just wonder what I'd ha e to do to make the fuel injection and ignition system work as a stand alone and if I could somehow use the f150 instruments. I haven't found any info on making the stock harness standalone. I've found a little on doing it with a 302 harness but not enough and I haven't found any aftermarket harnesses at all.
I’ve been looking into similar projects for fun and I discovered that a Chevy 250/292 inline 6 shares the exact same bore spacing as an SBC and an LS, meaning that putting an LS head on one of those could be even easier than on one of those than doing it on a Ford 300. Sounds like it would be a similarly interesting project to this one, with potentially a bit less work going into it! Edit: I forgot to mention, this is something that circle track racers way back when did with SBC heads which means it’s definitely possible, so that’ll be cool.
Your right the bore space is the same on that engine, would probably be a bit easier. Really making the head isn’t the hardest part, it’s making all the intake, exhaust, and supporting equipment. In my case the fuel management and intake were the hardest to make
@@Pistonranch I would love to find a shop in my in my erea that can make me a head like this but cut it with a water jet. Wonder of I could use cathedral port 5.3 LS heads for this. I can't do this work but I want a head like this.
@markatkinson4043 I question why everyone cuts them square. Makes way more work. If you step cut you don’t have to mess with welding up bolt holes and redrilling. Then have to worry about leaks
Hey man we want more!! So freaking cool

subbing to hear this thing go down the road.

Building my dream rat rod, I've always wanted to put a turbo 300 in an old hot rod and you are doing it! Awesome progress!
I really want to see this thing running and driving. Very underrated project.
Thanks! Trying to get to that point soon
Awesome. Going to sound wicked with that huge turbo
That thing is badass man.
Thanks! I appreciate it!
Its looking great.
Very proud of you, Jaron
I dig the front "bumper." That's pretty cool!
Just a bunch of leftover parts!
Looks great. Good work!
Looking amazing can't wait to see it running!
That makes two of us!
Looks like you are going to need some shine juice to make the rust pop. Looking good 👍

That is a sweet build👍
Thank you!
I would love to see it on a dyno!~♡
There’s plans for that!
That's impossible, you can't do that! 😆 kidding, can't wait to see it running!
What an "absolut" unit of a catch can
Don't know if you've thought of it a intercooler would fit nice between frame rails and help Hp
May do that eventually, this is going to be an e85 car

Heck yeah can't wait!
This thing is going to be awesome! What are your plans with the car?
Just street car stuff, drive to work, cars and coffee, maybe a rat rod show or two, car will see a dyno at some point
@@Pistonranch nice. Where are you located?
Southeast Nebraska
Very cool build you got lots of talent brother curious to know what cylinder head you used is it a 243 or 799?
Used a pair of 241 Camaro heads
Good heads often overlooked

@@Pistonranch yeah, I can imagine. It would definitely be cool to see though, and almost as unique as the your Ford 300 build lol
Go for it! Normal is boring.
gnarly
It's a beast😅
fuck yea
When do we get to properly hear this thang?
If everything goes well, hopefully this week or next week
Live Dyno stream in the future?
That will be the plan!
Need to weld a bead on the pipes to make it look like a 6 bearl shot 🔫
Do all Rat Rods have to be rusted with no paint?
No, rat rods can be about anything really. Just depends on what the builder is going for
You should make this a business if it isn’t already
Who built that head
I did
Got a part number for the bulk head?
Yes I will get it tonight
214-4208 is the female part.
I am going to be doing this to my truck do you know how much money it roughly took
Probably $1500-2000 but everything was done myself
How much power does it make naturally aspirated with that head you fabbed?
Don’t know it will probably never know life without boost

Other part is it doesn’t take special tools. I cut my heads with a sawzall
Today is my birthday. This is one of the best presents I could have asked for.
Happy birthday!
@@Pistonranch thank you.
What's that 70 pin bulkhead connector you're using?
Deutsch. I work for a Caterpillar dealer as a day job, they are used on lots of heavy equipment.
