I love my MK4 roadster with its 351w, Tw170 heads, F303 cam, TKO600 and double pump 650. I guess about 425hp/480+ft-lbs. I run 3.27 gears in my 8.8 3-link and the street manners are outstanding. 2000rpm in 5th and 70mph all day long. I have 315 Nitto NT05s on the back and have broken them free in 3rd gear with throttle only so the power is more than there. This car takes FOCUS to drive, but will make you smile EVERY time. Worth every penny spent and every second of the build. Only thing I may do is put a Holley Sniper FI system on it.

What is most important is knowing you're buying a car here that real experts can help you tailor in a practical way that suits your needs. not everyone knows that anything much over 300 horse in one of these cars can easily throw it off the road -if you're not very skilled with it. overpowering a car could limit your fun and ability to enjoy the experience, and it can be downright dangerous. 🏁

Just FYI...I've owned my '69 Corvette 427/435 for 52 years. Yes, it isn't a Cobra. The car has 180,000 miles on it and the engine has never been out of the car. It still has the original three Holley Model 2300 carbs. I removed the factory mag-pulse ignition five years ago and went with the GM HEI. Look guys, all this "talk, talk, talk" is for what? What are you planning to do with these cars? If you're going to race them, that's one thing. If you're going to just enjoy them on the street, big whoop! Sure, you can choose any engine and any combination of other parts but why? Wouldn't it just be better to keep it simple? Who the fu*k cares if you have 500 or 520 h.p.? That kind of stuff is for kids. Build a good, solid engine that will last and still give you decent performance. The more exotic you make it, the more likely it is you'll eventually be stranded by the side of the road waiting for a tow truck. To sum it up...complicated isn't necessarily a good thing.

Something not discussed in the video, but you need to consider when choosing an engine is the logistics of getting it into the car. The 302w block is best, size-wise, for fitting into an engine bay. After that, the 351w (I did some footbox mods to get better access to the DS plugs), then it's a toss-up between the mod motors and the FE. After that, you need to consider what transmission not only will bolt to your engine, but will fit and still have some driveshaft with whichever rear axle you use (solid 8.8 or 15+ IRS). And by the way, you can get a T5 rated to go behind your 500+hp engine. It just needs the right internals (Super Alloy/Astro). And for you Chevy nay-sayers, just remember that Carroll went to GM for engines first. Problem was they didn't want his cars competing with their Corvettes (and beating them). A GM engine is actually his original concept!

Yes, the reason for little cylinder wear of a 289 with 158K miles is because it’s a very over square engine design with long rods. This induces less rod stress and less angularity. However, If I were one of your customers, I’d be a puristI that means a Shelby 289, actually a 294 cid due to all Shelby American competition engines having a clean up overbore. Next, the Webber’s would stay! Also, the heads would have to be Crane super port flow heads just like the originals. Oh, by the way, I’m speaking from the experience of an original owner of an 1965 GT 350 competition version. I bought it new and raced it in SCCA amateur racing before joining the Marine Corps in mid 1965.

Mustangfords.com says, "Ford's 289 Hi-Po was also Shelbized, most notably with the addition of tubular Tri-Y headers and a Holley 715-cfm carburetor with aluminum high-rise intake manifold. These performance mods were over and above the already potent Hi-Po 289 version offered by the factory, taking the power rating from 271 hp for the Hi-Po to 306 hp for the Shelby Cobra version. " Additionally the Shelby got special cylinder heads. But mainly the Shelby motor was then considered to be more robust,for high performance work.
@arttafil67924 жыл бұрын
zakstev , Yes, I know all about the Shelbyized version. I owned an 1965 GT350 R I raced it in SCCA amateur competition. I had purchased a Shelby factory race 289 actually a 294 due to an .030 clean up overbore. It had Crane super port flow heads, a .480 high lift roller cam also from Crane with their roller rockers, a 12 quart Traco engineering oil pan and Mellings high pressure and volume oil pump. My engine ad four 48 IDA Webbers. Output was listed at 385 hp at 7,000 rpm. Cost of the engine in 1965 was $1.00 per horsepower or $3,850.00.

The formula for picking the correct carburetor is as follows: C.i.D. multiplied by Maximum RPM's = Answer then you take your answer and divide it by 3456. I'll do one example so you will understand how it works. 351 * 6500 = 2,281,500 divided by 3456 = 660.1. So this means that a Holley 670 Sreet Avenger Carburetor would be perfect for that engine and combined with an Edlebrock performer air gap manifold, it should be extremely reliable and start up just about everytime even in cold weather. Holley uses this very same formula to select carbs for their crate engines.

Does anybody know why the 302 isn't offered in FI from Blueprints anymore?

Contact Johnny at BluePrint! He can probably help you with your 302 questions.

Hay guy's great video, you guy's talked about all the Ford engines option and GM option and even Dodge options too, but there's a lot of hipe on the Mazda rotory engine's like the 2 rotor, and 3 rotor, and Rob Dahm's 4 rotor engine and he's also has a 6 rotor engine, Would there be any chance of these engine options available? Thank you for your graet video

I'd go with the 302 pushrod with aluminum heads and performance camshaft. 300 RWHP in a light body can hang with the big boys. To put that in context that is approx LT-4 Gen2 hp level.

Big block Fe's will impress everybody at the car shows, The Coyote will impress everybody at the road course open track days. and for all out road racing a 358CI Cup motor will kick everybody's ass. The question is do you want a cobra that looks fast or do you want one that is fast? Agree on the 363 Ford Dart or Ford Boss best power and HP and for sound will drown out everything else.

A HENDRICK POWERED CHEVROLET WOULD BE AWESOME WAY TO REALLY SET OFF THE FORD ONLY GUYS … ! ITS NOT THAT DIFFICULT OR EXPENSIVE TO HAVE 700- 800 PLUS HORSE POWER / PUMP GAS 440 CI LIKE MY STREET CAR… FORD DIDNT BUILD THE COBRA ANYWAYS , SO THEY WILL NEVER KNOW UNLESS THE CROWD IS REALLY IMPRESSED WITH THE POWER AND SOUND AND JUST HAVE SEE UNDER THE HOOD…! ❤🏁🇺🇸

I know this is an old video but have y'all thought about the 65 coupe with a 3.5eb/3.7 swap?

How about a budget/donor/junkyard build??? Drivetrain from a Ford/Chevy truck or a Mustang/Camaro/Corvette/Challenger Donor car can be: Mercury Gran Marquis Lincoln Town Car Ford Crown Vic Not to mention SB Chevy w/700r4 out of a suburban/pick-up from 80's-90's Or even a flathead ford v8 for the hot rod truck would be COOL!!!

BTW guys Southern Automotive is still building engines. Lyle is putting a 390 FE together for me now. Susan and company are great to work with.

I have a 390fe stroker Lyle built in 2012 for original owner of my Unique Cobra replica. Ms Susan and Lyle still keep records of the build and answer the phone to help me with questions. I didn’t even buy it from them! Southern Automotive = southern hospitality. Btw my engine is awesome.
