1600hp Twin Turbo Small Block Ford

John Grigas' Twin Turbo 427 SBF Factory 5 Truck!
Pump Gas tune for a 1000 HP and race gas almost 1600 Hp
Update : John wanted to make over 1600 after I did the video so we put 2 more PSI of boost and made 1608HP!

[@bradpittman5075]

Those mirrors turbos and that Intake looks great.

[@tomhamilton9140]

Great to see a Ford build these days. Thank you for sharing the build.

[@callofgeorge]

this is exactly what I'm after for my next engine.. i'd love to see a parts breakdown of this build as well as a rough estimate of cost.

[@hungry4knowledge208]

I assume 20k for the engine

[@darrenreed1148]

@@hungry4knowledge208 at least

[@shadetreetrades.jackofall2188]

Most likely for a build like this. With turbos, try 36. At least.

SBF Power! Love the SBF stuff. Do more of them.

[@ericcarr1648]

What an amazing engine. Ford power!!! I would love to put that engine in my 95 gt mustang!!

[@badass6.0powerstroke10]

Loving the FORD Stuff. Keep em coming. Would love to see a BBF Stroker with a Large Single Turbo, 102mm-106mm. On a 4.30 or 4.50 Stroke BBF.

[@jasonritter2492]

Ford race engines are real far and very few between at the track and he rarely ever does ford stuff is why you don't see.

[@user-rx5tx2ko8n]

My dad used to race a small block Ford in a 1993 fox body that made 2100hp with a 106mm single turbo. I don’t know exactly what second passes he made.

[@benjamins9121]

@@jasonritter2492 The ls stuff is just so cheap and good, not to mention a lot of aftermarket support because of that. Although more and more coyotes are showing up. Gen 2s and 3s long blocks can handle 1k or more HP, not bad for a 5 liter. At the end of the day I put Fords in my Fords, I know it costs extra but that's how I do it. It's not a Ford superiority thing, if it was the other way I'd still do the same thing. Just keeps the character

[@christanhartley434]

Steve morris is a Genius, doesn’t matter what he builds it’s gonna run better than anything else.

[@danmyers9372]

I have always had a soft spot for the Ford Windsor as my first car back in 1973 was a used 1970 Mach 1 with the 351 Windsor. Never dreamed back then that a Windsor could make this kind of power. It was an entry level engine (250 gross HP) and was considered by hot rodders to be a ‘truck engine’ not worthy of modifying.

[@sorshiaemms5959]

one of the best engineered motor s ever

[@marklowe7431]

Aussie Ford Barra 6. Stock block and head, 1000hp easy done. Cheap core, single turbo. Here in Aus we have at least one I know of floating around with 2200hp on the street. 7.9 sec car in full trim street reg.

[@bigredracer7848]

First 👍's up Steve thanks again for taking the time for us all

[@jamiemuncy2219]

I’m FORD TO THE CORE!!! Love that little setup. I’ve got a 9.5 Dart Iron Eagle block stuffed with a 4.185 bore 468ci rotating assembly, made real good power on spray but I’ve changed the heads to a set of SBF Hemi heads from Hammer Heads and putting a set of 78/76 twins on it. What kind of intake is that Steve?? I like that better than the Super Vic with a Elbow. Love seeing Ford stuff, awesome build💯💪🏻💪🏻💯

[@badass6.0powerstroke10]

Hell Yeah, FORD POWER !!! I'm all FORD too. Raced Clevelands for years, moved up to a 521 Stroked BBF about 10 Years Ago in my 86 Mustang. The Clevelands are awesome up over 7000 rpm, but that Low End Torque of the BBF is hard to beat. I just got a thing for Canted Valve Ford Heads.

[@badass6.0powerstroke10]

Never heard of Hammer Heads, gonna look them up. Had some CHI Cleveland heads few years ago, worked very good on my Cleveland.

[@turbomustang8417]

jamie muncy It looks like one of Hogan’s. He did say it was billet. It’s probably about $6500 though.

[@jamiemuncy2219]

Bad Ass 6.0 Powerstroke youst to be into CLEVELAND engines to, Hell, Ernie Elliot NASCARS Bill Elliots brother opened the secrets to the CLEVELAND and showed the world what real power is lol I just don’t like the thin cylinder walls, can’t bore the stock blocks much but you sure can’t beat a CLEVELAND head, that’s a fact💯 go to google type in Hemi heads SBF & you’ll find them. See I was in to BBF stuff because of Bob Glidden and Jon Kaase. My dad is friends with an old IHRA prostock champion from the 80s and he put us in direct contact with Kaase and we did well with his P51 heads but I got into Turbos and big cubic inch Small blocks so Kaase hooked me up with a x-employee who happened to design his own head and that’s the Hammer Head. Check out the pump gas 427 sbf.

[@badass6.0powerstroke10]

@@jamiemuncy2219 Yes i agree about the Cleveland Blocks. One reason why i went to a 460 Stroked Engine, Blocks alot stronger, along with a Good Forged Rotating Assy. I'm a Big Time Bob Glidden fan, #1 Drag Racer in my Book. And Jon Kaase is a genius, I'm running Trickflow Heads now but I'm really liking the Kaase SR-71 Heads. Jon is a Ford Mastermind. I'm planning in the near future to do a Large Single Turbo on my 521 really liking the Garrett GTX5544R Turbos, just deciding either 102mm and 106mm I was raised in a big FORD Family, believe i was conceived in a 65 Mustang Fast Back, my father had a few 65-66 Fast Backs growing up. Actually got a 67 Fast Back with a 1969 351 Windsor Engine, AFR 185,s and a few other mild stuff, mainly a cruiser. Yeah i totally agree with you on Glidden and Kaase being Ford Legends, Two of the best ever. Saw those Hemi Hammer Heads, look pretty impressive, as soon as i saw the valve covers, first thing that popped in my head was the Boss 429. Kaase got some nice Boss Heads he's doing. Good Luck with your Engine, sounds like you got some serious stuff. I remember when the P-51 heads were first coming out, was gonna buy them but they were little behind on producing them and i went with Trickflow Heads. Really wanted his tho, but now he got the SR-71 Heads, and thats what i really want now. Either gonna have some work done to my Trickflow Heads when i do the Single Turbo, or would really like to get his SR-71 Heads.

[@ysitrim88]

Dang love your content!! Thanks for sharing.

[@eddiespagetti8395]

Sweet. 50 grand I built one Simalar , only 1 turbo was on mine. Sweet beautifull motors the ford small block 289 bored and stroked with trick block work and heads . All made for high Rev power. Rollerized and gear driven mine sounded sweet too.

[@faststang5897]

This is Art , OUTSTANDING BUILT !!! What is the price for something like this

[@brettkelly1436]

I like how he ramps the boost in almost like a centrifugal supercharger, bet this makes life easier on the rotating assembly not dealing with all that mid range torque.

[@bear10bearessenticals26]

impressive numbers for cruising and racing, great work

[@Mgezee]

Steve, this is by far the best video you’ve made that I can relate to. Man, I would want that same exact setup in my 90 LX. How much does this exact setup cost?

[@dominickchiofolo5579]

Hey Steve, what headers are on that motor? My uncle has a 66 Mustang with a 302 he’s going to turbo charge. Those headers would fit perfect.

@Jeff Schwartz- Better get used to disappointment. Ford is reportedly coming out with the S650 Mustang platform in 2023 and reports are that the Coyote may be gone. Top dog GT may be an Ecoboost hybrid. Don’t know if Ford will continue the engine in the F150.

[@buddywilliams5650]

If a bearing blow's out in one of the turbo's. You would drop 75-90 horsepower easy. How much does the engine run naturally aspirated 750 horsepower? It's a 351 cid or 390 cid? Nice set-up man.
