1969 F100 Dyno Run and Sprayed with Nitrous on the Original Motor

[@iamrichrocker]

love the grin when you showed the Nitrous..you weren't kidding about a fun video..

[@shartne]

The rating on the door jam is for brake hp or at the crank. Your testing hp at the back wheel. Big difference. It did pretty good for a old wore out motor.

[@330_garage3]

Yeah I was actually really surprised to see over 100hp at the wheels.

[@shartne]

@@330_garage3 I use to own a 76 ford f100 with a 360 it ran good. I out ran a chevy 350 with it one day at work.

[@jakemichael8586]

THE STICKER STATED NET NOT GROSS SO 175 WAS AT THE WHEEL BUT 1972 WAS WHEN HP WAS AT THE WHEELS DO TO FEDERAL REG. MIGHT BE A 1972 DOOR OR FORD WAS GEARING UP FOR 1972 REGS.

[@reckonitions321]

Seeing that old Ford throw flames gives me the tinglies.

[@n5ifi]

I had a 68 360 in 74 that my dad bought brand new and it would do a 1 tire fire as long you kept the throttle pushed.

[@bowense]

i wish i could smell that fog! beautiful f100 model! best from FoMoCo! cheers from Argentina!

[@hankfink]

I was just down in Buenos Aires and surprised the Super Duty tucks have Cummins from the factory! Up here usually in the bigger medium duty Fords have the Cummins in industrial form.

[@bowense]

@@hankfink yes here trucks are made with diesel.. Cause gas is expensive!

[@pjhenderson3912]

Your 70-100 underscore was orange originally too. The low numbers were wheel spin. I saw the smoke. That’s how I’m telling it.

[@davidcarrell9313]

I have a 1966 Ford f 250 with a 352 with a full racing cam with headers. I have spend a lot of money. Getting it ready to run.

[@apiaryandy2478]

I typically hit those plastic posts like on the dash cluster with a small dab of thin super clue. Clean out any excess with air or a Q-tip. It helps fix any cracks you don't see before you run gently a screw back in.

[@Terminxman]

Loving your channel so far, I like how you don't over act or try to play a character for youtube.

[@williamcollins4082]

Graft a chevy coil top distrubter onto your ford bottom add a chevy 1 wire alternator . An upside down 2x to 4x carb adapter and a good carb I used a cheap Eldebrock with tiny primarys an it ran cheaper with 3x the power !!! This was in a converted school bus . Mileage was 7 and went to 14 !!!

[@nomad74777]

I love this! Who dyno's an old stock Ford...You do!

[@330_garage3]

Hahaha it makes me laugh... I also think its neat to be able to measure things see real results

[@seanwalsh2889]

Love the series keep it up!!

[@morgansword]

Funny but the public doesn't know all FE blocks have same bore and crank journals. Just toss in the rods that you desire and tag it. Definitely do a timing chain asa I have seen them running and you could make the chain nearly walk over the teeth cause the plastic come off the cam gear. Plus those chains stretch for miles/LOL I would roll bearings, rings and scuff the cylinder walls with a recreational cam and they wake right up. Try and find the biggest valves that you can and plain the heads on the piston side as well as the intake side then the intake too. It really makes a difference when you up the compression and the timing is tight... go electronic timing and put the points in the glove box and forget them. don't go fancy coil and cap, not worth it good video, new subscriber tonight

[@VTiredIron]

If I’m not mistaken, the 390 has about a 1/4” more stroke on it than the 360. Not sure if longer rods/shorter pistons would make any difference in displacement (I suck at math lol) but those old FE’s are great engines. I especially love the sound of the 360’s.

[@killeroffroadhobbyz]

Dude you are awesome, thank you for taking the time to show us everything. I want to get a truck just like that and make a Pre-Runner out of it and take it to the dunes. Great channel

[@goodluckcult3157]

Nice!!! Quick little shot makes for some Fun!

[@330_garage3]

Agreed!

[@matthewmann8951]

Dude I have used radiator hose clamps and smashed those rubber bushings right back into place. It actually worked untill I could fix it proper. Thanks bro bumpsides rule! Have 4 of these ol girls love em to death.

[@Ty-tie_FTW]

Subscribed. I love your videos man. Hopefully you continue to keep us posted! I have a 67 f100 long bed i got for 900$. Its in good shape but needs an engine. I would like a 390 to throw into it. Keep up the good work!

[@330_garage3]

Thanks! I'll keep the camera rolling as I work on this thing if you guys are enjoying it

[@Ty-tie_FTW]

I know I am, for sure. There isn't alot of in depth videos like yours that I have seen and actually want to continue watching on youtube about the bump side fords. Keep up the good work.

[@kelvinhill9874]

The HP rating was crank HP, not wheel HP. You lose 50-80hp through your driveline from friction and viscous drag. So there was no way that it was ever going to make 175hp on the chassis dyno. It wouldn’t have done so, even when brand new.

[@tennesfank]

I guess I'm just a little curious how the unicycle and the bow saw ended up hanging up in the same place on the wall together

[@330_garage3]

hahahaha "well I only worked my way up to juggling bow saws while riding it.. I never figured out how to juggle chain saws"

[@jgott1745]

I didn’t see the video of you pulling it out of the field, I’m assuming there is one. But is there new plugs, wires, and all that? Or would that even make a difference?

[@Blacklight8001]

I can hear Jeremy Clarkson saying "How do you get so few horse power out of a big V8 *modor* "

[@rokkebill]

DarkLinkAD Ok. Yesterday I drove my 318 Lifted Ramcharger in the snow up to my workshop and broke in my home rebuilt FE390 in my F100. The chevelle’s both have a V8 one 502 the other a 283 but the 283 doesn’t fit your rulebook so we can’t count that one. My friend which I share workshop with has four running mopars with V8, and one of my closest friend is just wrapping up his old school flathead build as we speak. Which according to your rules neither can be counted. You are welcome to Norway, you clearly haven’t been here much.

[@ceetwarrior]

That's pretty sweet!

[@yeboscrebo4451]

Excited to see this project progress! I’m curious, what does running with nitrous tell you? What info are you gleaning with the nitrous? I’m working on a 69 F250 myself right now (currently working on some drip rail rust holes) so your project has me glued. Keep up the good work

[@330_garage3]

I'm just entertained by nitrous. I kinda wanted to see it make 175hp at the wheels... I should have driven the truck afterwards, used nitrous and seen if it would do a burnout... just for a fun butt dyno baseline. Cool that we basically have the same truck!

[@Pedrofitbulls]

I’m doing my 1974 super cab same 360 in jt

[@sppjr]

Give that poor old girl a proper rebuild with a race cam, turbos, and nitrous.

[@TheWolverine-rm2kr]

No rebuild just a 4 barrel carb, high rise intake, race cam, and nitrous. 280hp easy

[@TheWolverine-rm2kr]

But then the second you touch the gas it will throw a rod

[@Weldingprobably]

Love it

[@fordnut4914]

When your done on the dyno with the truck. I wana see the unicycle next on it to see the horse power numbers on it. 😂

[@dandunning4409]

That drive shaft should have a midshift bearing shouldn't it? Never seen a shaft that long.

[@wpcampbell491]

Hey, bro, please tell us why you're not even considering restomodding this great find? I mean, hell - were I to have found a reasonably restorable truck such as this, I'd still have the same amount of fun your having, but, afterward, turning it into a restomod project with a junkyard salvaged 427, 428, or even a 429 SCJ, which I'm certain you could find on the internet, (Obviously, you'll need a new motor for it after this one BLOWS UP because you fed it nitros!

lucky you shorten the bed , cause i don't think it would have fit on that dyno otherwise haha, Cheers

That flame 🔥😂

[@brentunderwood7600]

yep time to build the motor lol

[@TheWolverine-rm2kr]

I with a 4 barrel it should make 200 all motor

[@330_garage3]

we're going to find out over the next couple videos, what I can actually make by rebuilding it as a 390, 4 barrel, cam and headers.. then back to the dyno for proof

Wtf only 128????

[@danieljonhson6367]

I can't understand why you only got 200 hp out of that motor I had a 1970 Ford F100 with a 360 in it I did a Dyno test once and it showed around 550 HP

[@johnwagliardo3640]

Smart of you to show the radius arm out of focus before you demonstrated the erotic thrusting.

[@TylersNeighborhoodGarage]

The only good thing about a 360 is that it can be rebuilt into a 390. I briefly drove a '69 F100 years ago with a 390 and remember it being a very torquey engine.

[@330_garage3]

Thats what i'm working on for the next video! "Turn the 360 into a 390"

[@dh9728]

[@Amy-wh3dt]

What gear was it in

[@330_garage3]

2nd gear. We were a little worried 3rd would put too much stress on the engine and spin the drivetrain faster than we were comfortable with. Luckily the Dynocom dyno will let you adjust for that

[@Amy-wh3dt]
