Well, I learned something today. When I was in high school, I pulled the heads off a ‘72 351W for a valve job. When I reassembled the top end, it had a small external coolant leak between the block and head on the passenger side. The heads were milled and pressure tested, so I just assumed I had a bad gasket. I replaced the passenger side head gasket again, and it still had the exact same leak. I never figured out what the problem was and sold the engine to a friend. And yes, I told him about the leak. Now, 30+ years later, thanks to this video, I think I know what the problem was. Funny thing is, he never did anything with that engine. Still sitting in his garage. Thanks for the solid content.👌🏻

My 65 has a stroked 351w baddest meanest sounding thing I've ever owned 🐎🚗🔧👊💪🇺🇸

[@davidascended6968]

What have you use to upgrade the 351 w? Looking to do the same

[@jaydubb71]

Nice! I haven't done this type of stuff in years. Great technical info! This video ALONE is worth the price of membership!

[@Neomustangs]

Glad it was helpful!

[@robking9857]

I am not a serious Ford guy, but I don't hate them either. As long as it is American-made, and V-8, I am good. I have owned them all. But this is a wicked budget build and I have freaked out building engines that the valves did not locate inside the valve releifs. Thanks for the education and great build.

[@jimmymccormick142]

Love your new combo l have a 384 cubic inch wins awesome engine mine has the 375 stroke with 6 2 rod love to put it back together everything is so high now good luck l know yours is going to be a killer Ford powered forever baby keep on pulling the knot out of them boties and the horns off them mopars l love it

[@elementl1166]

Dave knows what he’s doing… been watching your vids with him for years and have done my fair share of builds and he’s a solid builder.

[@Neomustangs]

Thx!

[@brandonknight7240]

Had 2 do the exact same thing with my 331 stroker build, mine has trick flo twisted wedge 170 heads too but the pistons are ICON, this was my 1st build, most frustrating thing was waiting weeks and weeks on 2 different machine shops, 1st shop cleaned and bored and honed my 302 - 30 over but they didn't have a guy to balance my new scat crank so i had to pass the crank off to a different shop to do the balancing

[@scottbailey6085]

Hey that blue and black sn95 in the back ground is my cousin's... there rebuilding his 351 set up 😊

[@GrandPitoVic]

Hell yea brother. Reuse what you can. Why buy new when you don't have to. Those studs are great.

[@bps.1]

on the cometic gaskets theirs a way to fix that you have to use a paint roller and a really good black silicone like the right stuff you roll the roller in silicone and roll the roller over the gasket on both sides then install for final assy ,dont let head gasket dry installl right away

[@GrandPitoVic]

This is definitely need to know info.thank you brother.

[@jcnpresser]

I can’t wait to hear this engine! It’s gonna sound good with some compression!

[@FORDMAT77]

As always thanks for all your help, I'm thinking i have a 351W out of a 96 F250 and I have new .30 over pistons, so hopefully this winter I'll be building me a engine

[@lloydgreen4091]

Thank You Dan -- Very Good INFO

[@davescbradiorepair8195]

Always been a Cleveland guy but that is impressive.

[@mooklocklear1182]

Awesome content man you always get the thumbs up

[@Neomustangs]

Thanks for the visit

[@tracyamcneal9597]

Your content is really helpful and informative especially for the novice like myself. Thanks for sharing cost effective alternatives/options in the building of engines. We the viewers understand that the better the parts provided will generally yield the best results...but you better have a fat wallet with concern for buying all new parts. Thanks again for sharing your knowledge and experience to help us along the way in the world of high performance.

[@paulbalzarano]

Never caught the follow up, you'd mentioned one time there were some issues getting the pistons and rods together. Idk what issues that was. That made me think a set of dss pistons for under 4 bucks would be ideal for this type of build. I want to do one myself now.

[@sn95_capo32]

Great channel

Hi Dan, enjoyed it very much. Are you going carb or injection? Thanks, Brent

[@Neomustangs]

The carb intake with injectors yes

I joined the channel. Your videos and Project Infamous's channels are worth paying for. Its finally showed me the members only stuff this month. Now its gone. KZbin is taking my money every month. I dont mind because they are worth it but something is glitched here. I liked the members only stuff. My statement says yes. Channel says no. I think youtube may be robbing you.

[@Neomustangs]

Well, that’s not right submit a ticket to KZbin they’ll fix it

[@Neomustangs]

And thank you for following along much appreciated

[@COLDHRTDKILLA]

@@Neomustangs Ive already done it. He should be getting it. I hope he has been and I am just glitched.

I need a parts list, Im currently doing the same except I want to build an NA motor.

Whole playlist on the engine thus far in channel

[@MP-pz9oe]

So that means a Cometic head gasket will leak coolant in the middle ?

[@jamespurrazzo3086]

@neomustangs are you still going to deck the block and do .30 pistons? Or do you feel comfortable with the gaskets and clearance you have? Ever 351W I find has the same condition, I’m guessing from the stock gaskets?

[@shoptimewithshay]

what piston rings you go with?

[@marcoblair5476]

Listen to ol, an wise😂🎉

[@kasems1536]

Thank you from Bangkok,,,,,

[@el.big_conq4642]

Quick questions, can a stock 4R100 handle a decently built 351W? and how can i start to build a decent 351W i just bought a 93’ Lightning and i would like to know how i can make decent hp and and how to build the engine in order.

[@jamesd189]

Hope your lightning has a roller block. Some 93’s did and some didn’t. The 94 and 95 Lightnings had roller blocks. I had 3 lightnings and know a lot about them.

[@mooklocklear1182]

I'd have to fly cut and do solid rollers😊

[@Neomustangs]

Not in the budget.

[@cecilandrews7479]

Just curious with those Pistons the compression going to be around 14 to 1

[@Neomustangs]

It wont be 14-1 and we are running E85

[@cecilandrews7479]

@@Neomustangs another reason I asked I'm doing one myself. And with the flat top 302 piston zero deck. With 58cc heads and the 42 on the head gasket the number said static compression 14.8. Did the numbers with the corrected compression with the cam that I have compression was 12.1. To get it to 10, I had to order a set of Hypertech Pistons from Summit with 22 cc

[@DangerRanger89]

With that much clearance why not deck the block again and run MLS head gaskets? You can afford to take 10 thousand off

[@justinschmidt9180]

What video tells us what cam you are using

[@trtony-xe4cl]

Do you not torque the heads down when clay testing ,????

[@jameseastwood4984]

Where the block was corroded and may have leak - would brazing the block then decking flat have worked?

[@Neomustangs]

Nah you just deck it flat

[@VGHCX]

How long are 351W cylinder sleeves? They must be 6.5" to 7" to enable you to stroke it that much.

[@JG-kv4oi]

You can stroke a stock block Windsor 4" bore to 427 cu. i. Around that point you go with an aftermarket block, like Dart...4.125 bore and you can stroke larger than 427.

[@jameswallace7351]

I just found you on here and I can't find the rest of the videos on this build is there any way you could give me the parts list for the build I'd like to do one for my 65 Comet I would really appreciate it if you would do this for me so I can build one

Theres a playlist with the videos discusssing all of that.

that cam those heads, you're looking at some serious low end. id say mid 400s.

@@angry408w7 I hope to see 400 NA That’s a good start

[@angry408w7]

if you're talking about flywheel hp, that might be about the limit. depends on where you spin it to. i had a similar setup. I swapped in an b31 in my 408. afr 185 72cc heads, about 9:1. about 400+rwtrq and 350is rwhp. conservative tune. then i put on a v3. 585 12lbs

[@sexycummins]

Why b31 in a n/a? Should of put the mighty b303 with 1.7 rockers for the win. Oh yeah this is just a budget build and not an all race engine., makes sense now 😂

[@youtubesecurity5702]

You telling me that if you take a bone stock 351w and put bone stock 302 pistons in it, it changes the cubes to 387? I guess you saying "or get some .030 over pistons has me confused. Because that would make the stock motor 357ci not 387ci

[@Neomustangs]

Your missing the crankshaft. I put th stock 302 forged TRW pistons from foxbody 87-92 302 motor, matched them with the stock Windsor rods and added 3.85 aftermarket stroker crank. The 30 over version of this is a 393 .
