This video cracked me up when Izzy and I were making it. Its the blooper in the beginning. This video documents DragBoss, and the Bossettes pulling down the bottom end of the 769 hp 409ci Ford 351 Cleveland. I give my opinion on modifying my current oil system, Dry/External wet sump, bracing new oil pick up, and keeping the same combo, My oiling mods work, proven on dyno, and track, only failing point was pick up. At this point, I am sending my oil pan to Stefs, and get a much better designed Aluminum oil pan/pick up, made for my application, with baffles, trap doors. We remove the Doug Garifo, Precision Oil Pumps, HV Melling unit. They also supplied the oil pump stud kit, and billet oil pump drive shaft. We remove the windage tray, and will not be replacing it. Darin Morgan told me he felt they loose HP. It may have contributed, may not have enough clearance between them. Next off is the main girdle. And then the main caps, overall you can see crank and rods are cooked, Coated Calico main, and Rod Bearings however were not that bad overall, Box up oil pan, and pump, and get these shipped to Stef's. Heard today from Bob, Beach, we are going to get this back together, at 82, he is coming out of retirement to help me get the 409 Cleveland back together. I will get crank out, and it evaluated, we will film the rebuild series at Beach Performance. This will be epic, can it come out and run 9.20s in the fall? What do you think
