Building a 347 Ford Small Block To Drop In A Mustang Track Car - Horsepower S13, E15

[@thomaslawry5238]

Vic, "...Look at the torque !.. " what a guy and real engineer. He will never be forgotten because American engines will roar to his improvements for scores of years to come!

[@beboboymann3823]

Great video guys! Loved seeing all the modified classic Mustangs running the track. Carrol Shelby is looking down with a big smile for sure. Way to go.

[@jjsbluz6081]

What fuel? Thx

[@BradThePitts]

7:13 looking at the direction of the vanes in the brake rotors, I am nearly certain they have them on the wrong sides.

[@jowens1126]

another awesome $100,000+ mustang build. Its going to be awesome.

[@OriginalMomo]

Always a good time when Uncle Vic shows up lol. Great numbers on that 347. 👍🏼👍🏼

[@tavianhorton281]

One of my favorite builds

[@TheBigred1781]

Somebody needs to come up with a front suspension like that for foxbodies

I'm fairly new...which one is vic and what happened?

[@wiktorjachyra1869]

Wait nevermind... figured it out💀💀

[@135taz]

Disappointed you guys didn't show the dyno curve. It helps those of us not interested in peak HP vs how the power band comes in and runs throughout. Can you post it? Also, why didn't you lube up the cam prior to install? Never seen one installed dry like that. I'm sure there is a reason, just I'm not aware of one. I know you pre lube with the oil pump before you rotate the assembly and fire it. Is that sufficient?

[@toddlussier3708]

P0😮😮😢l😢pop

[@glasserallen]

Damn that's pretty impressive only 12 ft lb shy of 500 ft lbs, the LS6 454 did 500 foot pounds but It had a hell of a lot more cubic inches than the 347 Ford did I'm actually very impressed.

[@johnnymontana2536]

They should have put a holley on it, that would have been hilarious.

[@ericfitzpatrick5319]

You used an aluminum bushing in a steel frame, aren't the two different metals going to eventually rot the other metal out?

[@joedirt9397]

probably but not before the camshaft eats the bearings from not having assembly lube.

[@markwallace5274]

Love this channel and build just glad I’m not a cam bearing in that shop lol

I know right?

Just what i was thinking.peace

[@ONTHEEDGEFRED]

Not the first time this idea had been pointed out. I'm not even a mechanic and noticed they are hard on the cam installs.

[@The.2.Minute-Man]

Hi from Australia great video really enjoyed

[@PANTYEATR1]

i thought the compression was 10.2:1 now he says it's 9.8:1?😕

[@ICONBADGTA]

@@cincinnatibob37 And that 500HP+ claim with edeljunk.. I don't think so! AFR (MAYBE), not with Edeljunk!

[@scottgordin9709]

And for just only $80k, u can have one of these parked in ur garage for about 4hrs of weekend fun (weather permitting).

[@bmstylee]

Definitely not cheap. The body shell is $18000. But the parts spend isn't prohibitive for a lot of people. The skill needed to build it is. Most folks just don't have the skill and will have to pay someone a lot of cash to build it.

[@michaelgiglio1571]

Hey love your work , for us guys in australia. Can you pls build and dyno the 351clevo with 2v closed chambers, best engine we have here in ozz. Michael giglio.

[@paulcochran5785]

3:29 13:11 it seems he said 10.2 compression earlier???

[@jaiquanboykins13]

Where is the suspension setup from

[@ASLDAVIS]

Curious on what cam was used ?

[@hunterquint8]

Pretty nice car body even though its not painted

[@davidblalock9945]

Something to think about. Gasoline is a hydrocarbon. A molecule made up of hydrogen and carbon. Most of the chemical composition consists of linked CH2 and CH3 molecules, with a few connecting single Carbons and CH molecules. Overall there's an average ratio of 2 hydrogens for every carbon. When the fuel is burned, the fuel is mixed with air. Air is 78% nitrogen, 20.9% oxygen, .9% Argon, .03% CO2, and .17% other gases. Most cars are tuned for a 12.5:1 air to fuel ratio. So under combustion, for every unit of gasoline (C16 H32), there is 125.4 oxygen atoms. To fully combust the fuel, we will need 48 oxygen atoms to fully reform the fuel; 32 combine with the Carbon atoms, and 16 to combine with the hydrogen atoms. This will result in equal amounts of H2O and CO2. This leaves another 77.4 free oxygen atoms floating around to interact with other chemical reactions. My point is this, if the exhaust gas has less CO2 in it, What did the Oxygen combine with during combustion? A low output of CO2 is a clear sign of poor combustion.

[@joedirt9397]

A lower air:fuel ratio reduces the oxygen in the reaction and leads to forming more carbon monoxide and less CO2, among other things. Oxygen also combines with other things in the reaction such as Nitrogen. More complete combustion is better for power as the fuel is turned into mechanical energy of the piston rather than being burned in the exhaust.

Explain to me how an engine pulls in more air when the bore and stroke stay the same??????

[@paulcochran5785]

Bigger heads

[@countryjoe3551]

And cam lift and duration.

[@racerd9669]

@@countryjoe3551 You need to lister to the part about compression ratio again. The engine cannot pull in more air, just because you raise the compression ratio. But these guys get away with this, and come off as experts.

[@countryjoe3551]

@@racerd9669 have you ever heard the term "volumetric efficiency "? I didn't hear them claim that raising the compression ratio alone will cause more air to be introduced into the engine. I guess I'll have to listen again.

[@racerd9669]

@@countryjoe3551 But the volumetric efficiency does not change just by changing the compression ratio. The engine needs to process more air to increase the VE.

So they made a business decision. Happens every day. HP left California for lower cost and to get away from their retarded politics. Eleiko USA left Chicago for Texas. Beretta left Maryland for Tennessee for political reasons among other things. Part of surviving in business.
