    Absolutely awesome content brother!!! This channel will take off 100% just keep the content coming!! There's a massive fan base for this kind of stuff on TH-cam but you seem to add that extra something which is what people will gravitate to!! I found your channel today and I've been binge watching since. Lol.
    If you get that truck running and idling on its own (without the aid of starter spray) I'll eat my shorts!!

    I'm amazed the truck isn't covered in rot considering how much time it spent under water. The wood in the box even looked fine too! I'd say turn it into a camper or sell the box and turn it into a cool rig, I'm sure someone would want an old truck box. Awesome vid tho!

    I was anxiously awaiting the largest ether backfire in recorded history. Glad you missed that one. For future reference, a less volatile option is a soda bottle full of gasoline with a nail hole through the cap. A steady drip keeps most things running while you bumblefuck around.

    Definitely an old FE Ford engine. If the engine can survive that, I'm sure the trans probably did too. Not to mention the rear tires were turning so it's not locked up. As long as the clutch functions she should shift. The front wheel bearing could be fun, but probably will turn out just fine. I would keep it mechanical on the fuel pump, and freshen up the carb. Maybe put a Edelbrock intake and a 4 barrel carb on it just to squeak out a little more horse power. All things considered she sounded healthy. That old Ford just said fix me I still have a lot or work yet to do. And it would be a bad ass camper. Parts aren't that hard to come by once you have which FE she has in her. Summit Racing will have almost everything if not everything to completely overhaul and tune the engine.

    That's either a 360 or 390. You can find specs on those engines. Parts are very easy to find also and cheap. Look up the numbers on the bottom of the block. Also sometimes you can find information stamped near the valve cover.

    • @theoldmanoftech4039
      @theoldmanoftech4039 ปีที่แล้ว

      I was thinking of the Ford 351 Cleveland motor as opposed to those 351 Windsor models. Worked on both back in the day. The Cleveland would kick major ass.

    • @GorillaCookies
      @GorillaCookies ปีที่แล้ว +3

      It's neither a 360 or a 390. Those are Ford FE engines. That's a Ford FT engine. The FT is the same basic architecture as the FE but has a steel crank , large snout, low compression and some other significant differences. They are low revving, run all day for years industrial truck engines.

    • @GorillaCookies
      @GorillaCookies ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@theoldmanoftech4039 No Cleveland was ever used in a truck from the factory. A 351 M and the 400 had similar heads and block architecture. But they are low compression emissions oriented engines. Cleveland were only produces for 4 years for good reason. They did produce good power depending upon what Cleveland model used but they all suffered from oiling problems that cause premature bearing failure . The Windsor series sbf engines are significantly better but suffer from poorly designed heads from a performance perspective. Too small ports and valves . Hard to beat the FE or 385 series Ford's
