Damned nice, no two ways about it, BUT the ULTIMATE stock block small block is the 351W stroked to 427 cu in. Big block power in a small block package, and small block weight.
Increasing the stroke limits the max rpm potential because pistons speed increases.. personally I prefer high rpm medium displacement 302 to 358 cubic inches. Big displacement and high hp are easy compared to high rpm and high hp per cubic inch.. just my 2c they are all cool in my book.
@marktse8732 personally if I had the budget I would go for 9000rpm IMO that is the minimum rpm for a v8 to be considered a high rpm motor. Torque 400 to 500 would be enough because my classic car (capri perana)is a light European car. I think my power goals are a bit expensive to reach but they are achievable. I have seen yates headed fords that have the numbers I am after..700hp 9000rpm 302 to 358 cubic inch.. as for the 2jz, great engines but I am obsesed with old sbf, here in Europe they are rarity and sound amazing.

This would not be a good engine for a heavy F-150, especially on the street. With a different intake and cam putting more power down lower it would be better.
That's a pretty cool build, but I feel like we're missing out on about 1000rpm of potential. I bet you could squeeze 600hp out of that thing in the future.
I saw a video a few days ago where the builder used what essentially was a couple bridges that ties the two banks together in the lifter valley so the block didn't crack when power went over 500. I just wonder how effective those things really are.

You can make the older 302 blocks strong. I know several guys running 5.0 8th mile et with stock blocks. One is a turbo car the other nitrous but he is going turbo as well.
true but this block and cast steel crank will be fine for short bursts like a 1/4 mile street strip. circuit racing as the the guy puts it? no, you need a forged rotating assembly and a dart block or yes you WILL crack it
@Raymond Denno what were doing with it? Because big blocks can survive 700hp na on a stock bottom end. They do all the time in pure stock and super stock classes. they are strong as hell
Look at these heads, then look at the Blueprint HP9009 head, then look at the Skip White NKB head...Look familiar? Skip White is the only one who advertises these heads as being made in China and if you go to Alibaba, you can see which Chinese company makes them. I live in Thailand and built a few SBF with these exact heads, straight from China. I use American made Erson valves and springs on these heads and they run good right out of the box. I've used the Pro comps out of Australia, also cast in China, and these new heads are better than Pro comp.
Nick B cost effective yes. More reliable. Maybe. Depending on how you use it and if you’re trying to make more power than the notoriously weak block can handle. Power wise. We’ve all seen sbe and stock head coyotes make over 1,000 hp. Reliably probably handle 800 without sneezing. So I’d say the coyote wins in that dept. now a dart blocks 8.2 Windsor vs a stock coyote would be a good comparison. The coyote is expensive but so is a dart block...
Karl Hopkins reliability as far as a daily driver engine that’s bone stock and well maintained yes. But making over 500 horse the main webs will crack.
Missed it, what was compression and fuel used? My 347 did practically the same numbers, with mechanical water pump, carb, pump 93, custom cam, 9.5:1, @ 7000rpm max hp. I have a trick flow box R intake waiting for it with fuel injection, as well as a turbo. One of these days when this covid-19 is over and I get my job back ill drive the car, lol. At least I could hear it run for now, sick. Any ideas what I can make on pump 93 with a turbo? The Machine Shop said mid 700s to the wheel. But of course I was hoping for 8 to 850 😂 I would love to see a comparison between this and take and the trick flow box r
Awesome build and all, but the block just doesn't come close to allowing the rest of the build live up to its full potential. When a good aftermarket block is available for not a hole lot more than a stock block with all the machine work done, seems like a small percentage of the project price for a lot of insurance and piece of mind. Hate to crack that block and ruin all the other parts you just spent all that money on. Plus, I mean, come on. Who can hold themselves to a self imposed redline when your engine still is building power?
Read a lot of people putting out more than 500 hp with the stock block so I think that's BS. I wouldn't trust the block at 700 hp but I think anything under 600 is just fine. I'm also talking strip machines as well which puts a hell of a lot more stress on the block than a street machine which isn't going to see that top HP all that often unlike the strip engines which live most of their life at peak power.
Stock Block record is 5.07 in the 1/8 right now and they're on the hunt for 4s.. and than there's the likes of cris Watson making 800+ on a stock short block for OVER 2yrs.. and everybody else making 600+ at the tire.. shitty tuners and lack of knowledge/ commen sense is the main hindrance.
And a pre-1980 stock block is even more perfectly fine, as '80-'81 is when they wimped out the little Fords. Even Ford rated the earlier blocks good for 600+, and I've seen 'em live with it. I'd be happy to shove the guts and induction into my '74 block.
@@xmo552 It sure is. You would probably end up using "retro-fit" roller lifters, but all of the rest is good. I have a '68 block in my F100, and it is running EFI for a foxbody (BBK SSI), hydraulic roller cam and so on. I am running v-belts instead of serpentine, but I'm guessing a foxbody or similar timing cover and related stuff would let you stay with a serpentine belt, if that's what you wanted.

This build would make a good vs coyote swap video. Is it as reliable? Is it as fast? Is it more cost effective?
Nick B cost effective yes. More reliable. Maybe. Depending on how you use it and if you’re trying to make more power than the notoriously weak block can handle. Power wise. We’ve all seen sbe and stock head coyotes make over 1,000 hp. Reliably probably handle 800 without sneezing. So I’d say the coyote wins in that dept. now a dart blocks 8.2 Windsor vs a stock coyote would be a good comparison. The coyote is expensive but so is a dart block...
Idk about this one, but old pushrod 302s have done 1 million miles without being opened.
Karl Hopkins reliability as far as a daily driver engine that’s bone stock and well maintained yes. But making over 500 horse the main webs will crack.
Missed it, what was compression and fuel used? My 347 did practically the same numbers, with mechanical water pump, carb, pump 93, custom cam, 9.5:1, @ 7000rpm max hp. I have a trick flow box R intake waiting for it with fuel injection, as well as a turbo. One of these days when this covid-19 is over and I get my job back ill drive the car, lol. At least I could hear it run for now, sick. Any ideas what I can make on pump 93 with a turbo? The Machine Shop said mid 700s to the wheel. But of course I was hoping for 8 to 850 😂
I would love to see a comparison between this and take and the trick flow box r
Your videos are really high quality content.
Greetings from Poland.
Hey, thanks very much! It's always nice to hear a kind word. And thanks for watching!
Awesome build and all, but the block just doesn't come close to allowing the rest of the build live up to its full potential. When a good aftermarket block is available for not a hole lot more than a stock block with all the machine work done, seems like a small percentage of the project price for a lot of insurance and piece of mind. Hate to crack that block and ruin all the other parts you just spent all that money on. Plus, I mean, come on. Who can hold themselves to a self imposed redline when your engine still is building power?
Should have used a main girdle in it and then take to Max rpm!
sweepstakes specifies you only have till November 30th to enter not December 2nd that is when the winner will be announced
"this motor will fit in alot of different vehicles" puts a high ram intake on it
would of been nice if you gave a parts list for this! Not just brand names
BEcause most of us could not afford it.
very impressive power!
I got a 67 mustang this would be perfect for!
I'd love to own one of those.
What lifters were those? I have swapped many a stock roller cam out while the heads were still on.
I was saying the same thing never had to remove the head on any 302 roller motor I've messed with
It made me cringe to see them not soak the lifters in oil
Nice !!!
Read a lot of people putting out more than 500 hp with the stock block so I think that's BS. I wouldn't trust the block at 700 hp but I think anything under 600 is just fine. I'm also talking strip machines as well which puts a hell of a lot more stress on the block than a street machine which isn't going to see that top HP all that often unlike the strip engines which live most of their life at peak power.
Stock Block record is 5.07 in the 1/8 right now and they're on the hunt for 4s.. and than there's the likes of cris Watson making 800+ on a stock short block for OVER 2yrs.. and everybody else making 600+ at the tire.. shitty tuners and lack of knowledge/ commen sense is the main hindrance.
thats a 69 bloc
Which is thicker. It can handle 700hp or so.
Would really love to see a gen2 LT1 build!
Stock block is perfectly fine just dont go over 549 hp 😎
And a pre-1980 stock block is even more perfectly fine, as '80-'81 is when they wimped out the little Fords. Even Ford rated the earlier blocks good for 600+, and I've seen 'em live with it. I'd be happy to shove the guts and induction into my '74 block.

Is it possible to run an old/early block dressed with a roller and efi fox body stuff?
@@xmo552 It sure is. You would probably end up using "retro-fit" roller lifters, but all of the rest is good. I have a '68 block in my F100, and it is running EFI for a foxbody (BBK SSI), hydraulic roller cam and so on. I am running v-belts instead of serpentine, but I'm guessing a foxbody or similar timing cover and related stuff would let you stay with a serpentine belt, if that's what you wanted.

Thanks for the reply. I'm thinking of using an old block for my '88. I can live with a 2 piece rear main seal. Maybe I can have someone go south of the border and find me a heavy block. I appreciate you sharing that info.
I have a 95 f150 waiting for a face lift......
I'd like to put this engine in my 04 Mach 1.
Why not install aftermarket main caps . They aren't that expensive and add strength.
This would go into a 63 Falcon Sprint
What about doing this to the 5.8 ?
God I wanna build a strong 302 for my sn95
