Breaking down the (actual) cost of rebuilding a V8

[@Four_Eyes]

*See this Mustang race newer Mustangs, a Camaro, Corvette, and a Dodge Viper:* kzbin.info/www/bejne/nHPTmZaqp8afe80

[@TheFogLakeshore]

306 inches and 288 cfm@ .600 is never going to net 400whp. I calculated 469 on a 230 cam with 8:1 dcr and 7400 RPM. There are other ways to get higher NA power on 306 with known heads but they are impractical because all those ways are high rpm. I see you went straight rich with the Viper but this was a cool build. On the bright side if the motor is not near maximum effort somehow with some imbalanced choices, it should make 469 whp NA until the cows evolve into flying cows and fly home.

[@Four_Eyes]

*addendum* * my labor costs are very likely on the high side since the shop that rebuilt my motor specializes in LS (this was their first 3v) * with respect to power, i think i (accidentally) lowered my compression ratio with the non-OEM ported heads (bigger chamber size) * at 4,500 feet i don't think there's enough air pressure for the stock heads to act as a restriction, possibly no benefit from ported heads until boost * the yOu sHoUld HavE CoYotE sWapPed iT folks are annoying, but they're not wrong * i am going to get this thing to 400whp before boosting

[@craigc9181]

Wow first of all nice job sticking with the three valve I also have a three valve pro charge mustang stock internals for 485 RWHP .My question to you is did you consider buying a complete motor first that was already done versus having a shop do it

[@grimes6702]

You should be able to get over 400whp pretty easily from here. I know a guy putting down just over 430 with the ‘same’ build.

[@guillermosanchez2652]

Man I’m not sure if e85 would be a viable option but I’m running e85 on my 3v and it gave it a kick and I’m already FBO just had to buy some 47Ib injectors and get 450 Walbro pump lol. Once I slap the hot rod cams I’ll for sure get my car on the dyno and see what it makes lol.

[@guillermosanchez2652]

But I also forgot to say you should be able to turn up the RPM with the new cams that you plan on adding. I’m pretty sure the car should have a better top end as well since the motor is already stroked.

He mentions that his car has stock heads, stock cams, stock coil packs, stock cats, stock exhaust and tuned 60-70 lb injectors, dual 75 mm throttle body. Just wanted to mention this as an alternative to turbo charging. I believe the 3.2L LC Mammoth kit runs about $7K. Good Luck with your build and thanks for keeping everyone updated.

The point of return style fuel systems is to control pressure spikes and drops. The fuel pressure sensor is relative to your manifold pressure. If it reads 5psi of boost, the ecu will try to maintain 55 psi. When in actuality it is at 60 psi. This variability can cause pressure spikes because the pulse width that that fuel pump gets changed on the fly to control pressures.

I did this exact same rebuild for my 2007 mustang. This is a great video with good insight but do not waste the money unless you plan on installing forced induction also. Dont forget also that if you decide to do this for big HP you need a clutch, transmission, rear diff, axles, possibly a drive line. Luckily I did all my work myself so there was no labor costs except for the machine work, but I was into my build about $15k with EVERYTHING. I also recommend a return fuel system if you plan on the big HP numbers and especially if you want to run E85, E90, or E100, whatever your state has. I had twin 465 litre pumps and couldn't get over 700 whp with E85 because the fuel system could not support it. I did make 905whp on 110 race fuel. MMR is the place to go for modular motor parts.

Never had a problem with that one. I used the McLeod RXT twin disk clutch and that seemed to do fine, but I also sent it in and had them rebuild it every winter.

I am down here in Phoenix Arizona. The dyno shop that did mine is called dynocomp in Scottsdale Arizona. The owner Richard when I was looking for a dyno shop interviewing multiple that is. One of the things that I liked the most about him was this. If you are looking to see a particular number on the dyno go someplace else. If you want maximum power out of your engine but reliable and trustworthy I'll do it. Because I guarantee you go to any other dyno shop after I've done my tune on your car they will get a higher number by leaning out and jacking with the timing to unsafe conditions. The thing with your heads definitely can be a thing. A lot of people forget that engines are air pumps air in air out. When it comes to doing this kind of stuff that you and I are doing you got to figure up your volumetric efficiency in short how efficient is each cylinder pulling in air and utilizing it. But I would really like to potentially talk to you on the phone about this stuff if you're interested. I don't know enough about this KZbin communication because I know I don't want my contact information out for everybody and I'm sure you don't either but anyhow. If you don't want to because of too many weirdos out there. I get it. At the end of the day it's all good! And doing this kind of stuff is a lot of fun hell I just got done last weekend porting my throttle body. Which by the way collapsed my JLT air cleaner. Good luck In the regards to porting the heads I did port my heads I did a lot of research into it talking to guys that do porting that are willing to talk about it which is far and few between.

I have a few cars and I tend to spin if I attempt this with my Coyote. (My 1991 ZR-1 kills my 2013 Mustang GT on the track quite easily so far).

GREAT JOB. A lot of good info presented very well.

[@AGBULLIT]

Thank you so much for this series. I am also building a 2005 Mustang GT.

[@SlowSpeeds]

Good shit man! Super high video quality, and for sure something different! Sick mustang! Earned my sub!

[@sammarley347]

Thank you for returning!

[@kidsavvy660]

The roller at the outro is amazing

[@lucabrasi1486]

God damn buddy, I love your build, been watching for a while but damn 70 hrs for labor is ridiculous, it doesn't even take half that long

[@BlueSkiesVinny]

More videos PLEEEEEASE. I can only rewatch these so many times haha. Love your content!

[@Four_Eyes]

thanks brother, new stang video on sunday!

[@BlueSkiesVinny]

@@Four_Eyes hell yeah! Can't wait!

[@serge920]

Because of this channel my new edge is getting a 3v swap because the project is actually more fun than a basic coyote swap

[@Four_Eyes]

that's pretty awesome, you will get a lot of hate i reckon

[@serge920]

@@Four_Eyes yeah they will hate that a built 3valve can put some lengths on coyotes

[@OctaneStreet]

I could have sworn you got the car up and past 400rwhp in a previous video! $16.5k to have the car sitting where it is seems real intense, but hopefully it's at least at a point where it can start making the power with its forged internals. Can't wait to see what's to come!

[@kenstirling5348]

I spent a bunch of money on a Pontiac rotating assembly. I’m glad that I’m not the only one paying big money compared to a small block Chevy

[@robertswift6101]

i thought the price was right in line but i expected higher horsepower and performance for that amount of money.The sound of your car is amazing

[@400hpmustang]

For $18.5k you can get a Ford Performance 5.2L Aluminator XS Crate Engine, stuffed with all the goodies. Best of luck with your 3 valve going forward.

[@alexbustos7051]

Well thank you for answering my question, I'm about half way through buying parts for my build. I'm still missing ported heads and the random little stuff that would need to be upgraded.

[@Four_Eyes]

i would skip the ported heads, very expensive and unless you're shooting for like 1,000+ wheel horsepower, they're not necessary

[@christopheryniguez825]

Subscribed. Very cool. I'm more into modding the old 5.0L push rods but seriously appreciate the new(ish) builds.

[@nike12000haha]

I love your old cams can’t wait to see what you come up with next

[@clarencejones4488]

Dude your a beast ill be watching for now on, as i formulate my evil plan against all my uncle and cousin, my uncle has a 1985 Caballero 660+ horsepower my cousin just got a 2004 cadillac cts v moded has 550+ horsepower. I bought a 2004 mercury grand marquis ls as a project to keep up, but so far i have only gotten to the exhaust thank you for your informative videos your awsome!!!!

[@frbrbrgrblgrr7777]

So cheaper to Boost a 6 banger and get way more power. Cheaper to build an LS and get more power too. That really is a labor of love, good for this guy. I can respect this, that's love for what you own and that's admirable no matter what platform.

[@stateofdisarray679]

I got rid of my 2008 Mustang. It was a crappy V6 and I was .ore than happy to see it go.

[@thomasreeves6331]

Wow that’s interesting...I thought you’d be pushing a little higher hp...but it’s now built to handle it...can’t wait to see it again

[@shanestewart9505]

Thanks for the reality check. Some people don’t realize or believe what it takes $ wise and time wise to have the good stuff.

[@James-WM]

I want to see Engine Masters do a series on the mod motor, natural aspiration and boosted. I think it's a great platform for lightweight cars. I love the sound but the Coyote was desperately needed at least 5 years earlier.

[@rihasanatrofolo2472]

Could you do a cinematic overview of your mustang? These shots are stunning!

[@kainpope3550]

I assume you'll also be building a transmission for the car? Will you be making a video on what it takes to build a 1000hp trans? That would be super cool!!!
