Don’t hate, soon it will be the internal combustion guys vs EV guys. The k24 is a killer engine but you know you’re stirring up a hornets nest saying it casually in the comments section of a big block build with nitrous. Everybody has their preferences, don’t create reasons to exclude/hate. Be stoked that there are people motivated to continue pushing this awesome hobby further everyday. Get out there and work on that project!
@@datraktorman69 facts! I would never build a engine with cheap Ebay parts. I've known way too many people that engine went BOOM with that Chinese junk. You'll get your 1,000 rwhp but it won't last long🤣
That's a no 💩er. It used to be a real job getting just over one horse per cube. Now that's about where you start if you're going to build a real hot rod. This is the stuff that only dreams and science fiction were made of.
@@bigboreracing356 how sad, another fool blinded by brand loyalty. Doesn't matter in the end, a boosted LS, coyote, or new hemi is far more efficient than any big block from decades past.
Hey guys do you know street racer has a 468 Chevy? It'll out run all the fords ever made. He will tell you if you don't believe me. Jon Kasse is apparently afraid of street racers 468 too. Here I thought Kasse made some bad ass bbf's but they are no match for street racer. The guy is a legend just ask him about his 468.
@@jeremystrickland7767 always a hater from Chevrolet. Never with facts. You need to watch more unbiased shows. There is a reason you see more old Ford's running. And listen to the 1st part of this build.
Hell yeah! Blue oval all the way.The factory 385 BBF can be maxed out all the way to 598ci, BBC stops at 572. Or Look at the modern V8s, Ford makes more hp with the 5.0 coyote than GM does with a 6.2 ls3.
About time we see some Ford engines. Great job guys. I have a couple friends who run BBF's and they do very well at the track. To many people ask if they are the other brand. These video's are clear on the potential of these amazing motors. Do you see a Godzilla in your future?
Chevy 572, dual quads, tunnel ram, 750 h.p., ford 557, single quad, 750 h.p., how about the same tunnel ram and carbs as the chevy?, oh yea, they didn't have one " laying around the shop".
@@thomasdavis3998 This build seems to suggest otherwise, the BBC made 4 less HP with only 15 more cubic inches. Its a solid comparable build. They both make good engines, and are both capable of the same power levels.
God damnnnnn that out performed my expectations and I'm a big ford guy that's the most power I think you guys ever made in the dyno room! Nice freakin work
I had a 69 Lincoln mk lll and it had a 460 and it was a good highway speeder. But nothing like that! And a magic carpet ride. Better than many. Newer cars.
I like how they made the build with somewhat of an actual home builders budget. Not punching MAJOR name brands for oil, ignition, filters, etc. with a price point. The MAJOR guys I’m sure make great products, but people that have already spent a ton for their toy don’t necessarily need to spend a ton right off the bat for everything.
LOL, I recall watching that twin turbo GTO run at Famoso 10+ years ago. It was actually the first twin turbo V8 race car I had ever seen race in person.
Do Not bottom your head studs in the block like these guys did with a impact tool. It states in the ARP instructions to put them in hand tight only. With heat expansion you can damage your block or stud threads. On the engines I build I measure the thread depth then ensure that my studs go in far enough and aren’t being held up by a tight thread burr. I personally leave them a 1/4 loose and have had no issues with that in 30 plus years of building the specific engines I build.
Nice drag times, but in my opinion I prefer all aluminum low sitting small block v8s or even a twin turbo v6. a lower geared final drive stiff roll bars and fat tires
@@falconpowerful2362 it would fit in your falcon but you would need a stiffer suspension all around and the car would need lowered, much of that powe could be wasted as the falcon on very light and would have a heck of a time transferring power to the ground, the wheels would constantly spin, and the massively offset weight distribution would make the car very unstable and unsafe, it's like putting a putting a rocket engine on a tree leaf.
@@dj4monie LOL!!!!!!!!! Put that engine into a Foxbody Mustang or a Foxbody Fairmont or even swap it into old Fairlane or Comet and it'll demolish anything you drive mate.
I love it when you guys do the blue oval I can tell you the hemi is going to have a hard time producing that same amount of horsepower and torque with that cubic inch All things being equal great job
The Trick Flow 325 Power Port heads are very nice pieces, but for this size of displacement, I think they are a bit on the small side. This combo with some P-51 heads will pull over 800 horses on motor alone, and very likely be over 1100 on the bottle. And with the new SR-71 heads, I think power would be substantially more still.
Damn i was thinking that my 351 build was doing exactly what that big block was doing dyno test showed 806 hp on pump 93 i was so excited my head swelled and i was gunna get on here and brag added a hundred shot of nos and 1043 hp i was geeked my small block is a bad mfer then they showed the torque number my numbers were well short of that mine 806 hp/ 602 torque the 1043 hp /898.5 torque i mean those arent shabby numbers but that big block is a straight torque monster for sure
I off-road with a 1979 Ford Bronco running the original 400M I have been thinking of upgrading to a 460 cu. in. But i don't a 5900 rpm engine, off-roading I need low rpm torque 1800- 3500 controllable for trail driving and rock crawling. I would love to see a build for a similar rig as my own.
Ford people know what they have! Every time I go to a race event you will see 20 Chevy's 10 Dodge, an 5 Fords, an somehow Ford ends up on top, or at least on the podium! I would love to drop that in a smart car! lol
Dammit boy! 754 NA fresh off the stand...wow! I would LOVE to drop that thing into an early 90s Ford Lightning with a 6 speed manual. It'd be even better in a mid 90s Ranger. You'd have to cut the firewall and lose the inner fenders, but it can happen with enough determination. I've seen people dropping LSs into Rangers.
Hey Mike and Pat, did either of you know that the foot in foot pounds never changes? It should be foot pounds because of how torque is measured. At the time it was first used, which was possibly in the late 1800, the dominant beast of burden was the horse. They had a contraption that allowed an animal or engine to lift a weight. At one end of a thick rod was another one rod that was a foot in length. This was elevated from the ground. At the end of that was possibly a chain that would be attached to the weight. Do either of you know what a yoke is for an animal? It's what goes around the neck of the animal. It would be a different arrangement for an engine or an electric motor. That horizontal bar possibly had two or more bearing, which could be placed in what could be a framing for a swing. When that horse was attached to those straps and started moving forward, it would twist the horizontal tube and will additionally twist the one foot rod at the other end of it. This would allow the weight to come off the ground. That weight will determine how much twist or torque that animal had. How would they be doing that with an engine? Most of them had standard transmissions. They wouldn't use it, though. They would use the clutch instead. What would it be attached to? A flange that would act as the friction disk of the clutch. That flange would be bolted to the other flange, which would be at one end of the horizontal tube, which would have tge one foot rod at the other end of it, with the chain attached to it for the weight. That's how they, at that time, determine how much torque or twist that engine had. As you exceedingly well know, people use a dynamometer to test for horsepower and torque. Don't ask me, don't know that answer. Perhaps you could ask Google that question. It would possibly have an answer for that question. That's the reason why it should be called foot pounds of torque instead of pounds feet. No, that foot will never change.
Only thing I would use for toeing is a 468 Chevy right street racer. They are so much more powerful and reliable than a ford. Let's post it all over Facebook so everyone can be impressed with the 468 Chevy
This engine would be a Phenomenal donation to my 87 F350 big block mud truck, especially because I blew my 73 385 series up last season! Let me put her to good use lol
Valve springs are gonna be troublesome on the street with that much lift, keep it under .700" gross lift and things will stay a lot happier for much longer not much noticeable difference in power for the added durability and cost of maintenance an addition of a Stud girdle would make a noticeable gain in power and less rocker stud breakage.
Kinda wild how 700hp used to take a big block with lots of cam and heads but now we have LS and Coyote motors making that with bolt on parts and cams and maybe head work.
Even more interesting is how much power you can get from the OE's these days. I remember watching an interview Jay Leno did where he mentioned buying his Viper. Dealer assured him you'll never see a car with this much HP from the factory again. Yeah times have changed, and I like it!
@@sparkplug1018 Totally agreeing. Makes me wonder how long big thumping cams in a large displacement V8 will stick around. I love them, don't get me wrong but I feel like carbed engines are coming to an end now that we have standalone engine management that's more efficient and equally priced to a good carb nowadays. Heck, even 5-6 cylinders are making north of 500 now.
@@sparkplug1018 more or less I agree. I've seen large cfm carbs going for 3-900 bucks and most don't really understand tuning them and don't want to risk spending 5 hours changing jets, adjusting timing and then blowing it up because it's wrong. With things like megasquirt you can run efi off of basically any engine from 4 to 8 cylinders for about 3-400 bucks and have someone data log and tune remotely.
@@alpha2gproject783 If the person can learn the system MS is a great deal. Im thinking more of an out of the box system though. Figure a 1000+ cfm carb, single plain intake and distributor will set you back 1000-1200 or so. I think thats the mark to hit, when an out of the box system (intake, TB, ECU, dist, wiring and fuel pump, etc) can match or beat that, then yeah carbs are done for good. Figure with how popular LS swaps have become people are becoming much more comfortable with it, so its probably not to far off id imagine.
I know so much about a vehicle now , I'm prepared to breakdown , have a Code Scanner now , ready for an engine light to pop up , Know how to change my brakes A whole lot of stuff ..... Vocabulary , and measurements and mathematics are really important !
My Chevy is so fast and strong it'll out run and out pull anything. My Chevy helps me pick up so many cousins st family reunions. I hate fords cause my uncle dad said they are junk.
Yeah street racer I mean my uncle and your uncle are the same guy that's why we hate fords and chevys are the best. I can't wait to see you at the family reunion this summer we are gonna pick up so many cousins. With are big block chevys. They are so much better than anything. I say we go watch every Ford video on you tube. And then comment how much better chevys are. That'll show them. After that we will swap sisters and Copenhagen. Oh man it's gonna be a epic Christmas. Just make sure everyone knows that our chevys are faster than fords in the meantime.
Fords suck so bad. Just ask street racer if you don't believe me. I mean jeez it had lees cubic inches than the 572 Chevy and only made 4 more hp. What a junket right street racer. Let's get are chevys out and show these Ford guys how it's done.
street racer you have a 468 too? Man my 468 Chevy makes 1700hp on 91 octane. It's all motor no nitruous or turbos. Fords are such garbage though right. I mean my 572 big block Chevy makes 3000hp on 93 octane and has all stock internals. I'd like to see a ford do that. Man I can wait till our family reunion cuz. We are gonna tear up our cousins like Chevys tear up Fords.

Thank you for the BB Ford build. Talk about low RPM torque and HP this is a simple and effective combo. Great work.

would be nice to see an engine that big run thru 2 1/4" headers
Very impressive numbers!!!!
This engine would be a Phenomenal donation to my 87 F350 big block mud truck, especially because I blew my 73 385 series up last season! Let me put her to good use lol
This makes me want to be a auto mechanic so badd this my dream job
Pat without pens, a milestone!
Nice build for sure!
Valve springs are gonna be troublesome on the street with that much lift, keep it under .700" gross lift and things will stay a lot happier for much longer not much noticeable difference in power for the added durability and cost of maintenance an addition of a Stud girdle would make a noticeable gain in power and less rocker stud breakage.
Kinda wild how 700hp used to take a big block with lots of cam and heads but now we have LS and Coyote motors making that with bolt on parts and cams and maybe head work.
Even more interesting is how much power you can get from the OE's these days. I remember watching an interview Jay Leno did where he mentioned buying his Viper. Dealer assured him you'll never see a car with this much HP from the factory again. Yeah times have changed, and I like it!
@@sparkplug1018 Totally agreeing. Makes me wonder how long big thumping cams in a large displacement V8 will stick around. I love them, don't get me wrong but I feel like carbed engines are coming to an end now that we have standalone engine management that's more efficient and equally priced to a good carb nowadays. Heck, even 5-6 cylinders are making north of 500 now.
Bob Sagget I think when EFI gets to be on even grounds with a carb setup for the entire package it will happen. And we’re getting there.
@@sparkplug1018 more or less I agree. I've seen large cfm carbs going for 3-900 bucks and most don't really understand tuning them and don't want to risk spending 5 hours changing jets, adjusting timing and then blowing it up because it's wrong. With things like megasquirt you can run efi off of basically any engine from 4 to 8 cylinders for about 3-400 bucks and have someone data log and tune remotely.
@@alpha2gproject783 If the person can learn the system MS is a great deal. Im thinking more of an out of the box system though. Figure a 1000+ cfm carb, single plain intake and distributor will set you back 1000-1200 or so. I think thats the mark to hit, when an out of the box system (intake, TB, ECU, dist, wiring and fuel pump, etc) can match or beat that, then yeah carbs are done for good.
Figure with how popular LS swaps have become people are becoming much more comfortable with it, so its probably not to far off id imagine.
I know so much about a vehicle now , I'm prepared to breakdown , have a Code Scanner now , ready for an engine light to pop up , Know how to change my brakes A whole lot of stuff ..... Vocabulary , and measurements and mathematics are really important !
Ford Engines are so awesome 😎
great job guys looks like a good combo
What ever happened to Pats Galaxy with the turbo charged SBF??? What did it run in the 1/4 mile???
Loviong your videos your my new Engine-masters! 😁👍
Go compare this to that 572 Chevy they built... You'll find the Ford more than held it's own.
Them junkolet crybabies are like liberals they are terrified of of the All Mighty Ford .
My Chevy is so fast and strong it'll out run and out pull anything. My Chevy helps me pick up so many cousins st family reunions. I hate fords cause my uncle dad said they are junk.
Yeah street racer I mean my uncle and your uncle are the same guy that's why we hate fords and chevys are the best. I can't wait to see you at the family reunion this summer we are gonna pick up so many cousins. With are big block chevys. They are so much better than anything. I say we go watch every Ford video on you tube. And then comment how much better chevys are. That'll show them. After that we will swap sisters and Copenhagen. Oh man it's gonna be a epic Christmas. Just make sure everyone knows that our chevys are faster than fords in the meantime.
Fords suck so bad. Just ask street racer if you don't believe me. I mean jeez it had lees cubic inches than the 572 Chevy and only made 4 more hp. What a junket right street racer. Let's get are chevys out and show these Ford guys how it's done.
street racer you have a 468 too? Man my 468 Chevy makes 1700hp on 91 octane. It's all motor no nitruous or turbos. Fords are such garbage though right. I mean my 572 big block Chevy makes 3000hp on 93 octane and has all stock internals. I'd like to see a ford do that. Man I can wait till our family reunion cuz. We are gonna tear up our cousins like Chevys tear up Fords.
Wow.. big numbers baby!! Wooo
These are way better motors than my old FE.
Those heads done better than i thought i hope you used a d9 block with those 6.7 rods
spark bolts, bump sticks, what next pistons getting changed to flame actuators?
