I’m going to say this again Brent, it’s absolutely a treat to watch a Craftsman with old world values ply his trade. You build engines Exactly the way my Pop did and the way he taught me to do everything that’s worth doing. Thank you.

I like the screwdriver wedge to torque the main caps......surely seats the thrust bearing.....will use in the near future on our 464" FE build.......i've used dif methods, and none have bitin me in the butt, but i like that as a method, and removes any question of thrust bearing seat........TY sir!!!.PEACE to you!!

Sometime back I asked for the fe bellhousing diagram which you did not have. I asked many more shops the same question and you sir were the only one to reply to me. I thank you for your time and trouble. My old boss (Russ Barfield) would have built this the same way.

109LSA you will be making a lot of power under the curve. The torque curve will certainly be incredible. It's going to sound really nice and once it gets rolling it will be dominant.

Very true" infact my 70 Torino came with Quench 4-V heads , flat tops , approx cam of 520 L, 282 dur, and yes 4 bolt main. So observation ;-)

When u figure the quench distance, I understand you have to simply for clearance. But those looked to be a dished piston?? Will there be any benefit from quench at all considering the type of dish they appear to be??

Thanks for taking us through the steps. It's been awhile since I've assembled a complete engine. I may be taking my Cleveland apart this fall due to vibration. One question I have, seems I remember back in 1973 Ford retarding the cam 6 degrees in these engines, for whatever reason. Was this done with the key slot in the crank, or in the timing set? If I pull mine down, I would prefer 5 degrees advanced, as you indicated. I do not have a degree wheel and indicator tools. Thanks.
@rancherodave7 ай бұрын
From what I remember I think it is achieved with a timing set that goes on the cam keyway -5degrees. Don’t quote me on it but I think that is the case.

Would you mind posting the whole cam specs. I’m building a 408 Cleveland striker with TFS 195cc heads, Edelbrock air gap intake that’s been fully ported, and a Holley EFI. Trying to figure out the right overlap for the cam. Ant help would be appreciated.

I don’t give full cam specs. Feel free to fill out the form on my site and I can get you one. You can’t get one like this without going full custom anyway.

G'day. You didn't reply to my last inquiry regarding you addressing your methodology for setting front cam bearing depth either to me or in this video for other followers. Would've taken little to no time to cover it as you were installing the cam. Disappointing for me as you said they had to be set at different depths dependent on construction and your install looked like 0.050" instead of Ford's specification of 0.005" - 0.020" but hey, it's your channel and you're free to include or omit onfo as you please. Cheers.

Being it’s Motor Sports block I’m surprised it doesn’t have 4 bolt main caps. The Boss 351 Cleveland came with 4 bolt mains.

It's not a motorsports block. Just a plain Jane 2 bolt main 351C.

Is the build time of this engine a big issue? As you did not want to wait a week to get the correct cam that you had ordered? Thanks for all the info and great videos.
@lykinsmotorsports Жыл бұрын
It would have taken 3-4 weeks to get a cam. Gotta have a cam before I can do a lot of preliminary checks, so a month would have set us back too far.

I’m sure you’ve built more engines and sold way more cams than I have, so thanks for the advice.
