My only experience with this family of engines was a '66F100 with the 240 with a weak oiling system. It failed a crank at 85k miles in about 1980 and we turned the rusty truck into a trailer. I would never ever have thought of one of these as a candidate for boost. However, based on all of these positive comments about the big block sixes , I must have just been unlucky. So maybe in the future if a truck with one of these becomes available I won't automatically write it off. I used to love the sound of the rocker arms in these rumbling under the hood of my '66 F100.

On the 300 if older models if you don't change the pistons out some of the original pistons only have only a little distance in the amount of aluminum material between the top and 2nd ring so if you push it too hard and ts got a little mileage on them it will stress the material in places in that very small and then material and break it out if you try and run a high rpm I know because I drove one home after winding it too tight and breaking that lip between them like taking a pop-top on the can and lifting it up and down till it snaps off and damages the rings it ran like crap and people were blowing their horn because of the smoke it created trying to get it home, needless to say, had to have t bored 30 over to get the damage out of the cylinders replaced piston with ones that have a lot more meat between the rings so about 850 later it's running great lol but its a 1971 model best truck I ever owned that was 20 years ago still going strong I gave 1200.00 for it back about 25 years ago only thing wrong today is the manual trans roars in 1st and 2 gear its a 3 speed nwith 4th which is over drive with the side mount shift which has the aluminun housing i plan on pulling it his summerand replace the bad bearing or bearings since this transmittion is not out there anymore or hard to find they were used it in some mustangs also and few other cars (PS the pistions i put in back then were Baggers .30 over

I too would love to hear how you connected the megasquirt to the 300 I6. As a fellow man with long hair and several Prince shirts I have to support this channel on custom of our people. 18:20 you also cannot use an MLS gasket because there's no way you can clean the surface of the block well enough for proper adhesion without removing it from the truck; that sucker gotta be FLAT. Besides, having a head gasket that lets go early can save the block anyway as insurance, as Matt Happel said with LS engines and why he uses the paper gaskets so much. For a rebuild, you might want to look into relocating the coolant inlet to the engine; the Ford 300s got all the cooling to the first piston and they tend to have issues with fuel burn because they literally never get warm enough (I8s had this problem too). the HAMB I know, has had a few threads on relocating it to a midpoint in the block.

Are you going to be updating this as time goes on ? Because I'm trying to do this same project with a 91
@samseals83603 жыл бұрын
Same here, ive got a 93 but im thinking about building a custom "tool" box in my bed that a turbo would be mounted there then piped up front to help with some of the headaches theses guys had.

Compression of 155-160 lbs across all 6 cylinders dry is a good engine

Horrible unforgiving allergies. A whack in the nose would be almost preferred!

hyper-eutectic are "harder" but not stronger, in many cases they are actually weaker than cast as they they are much more likely to crack or shatter

Go with forged pistons with a decent top ring gap when turboing..

Older ford 302 engine broke piston skirts all the time. You never knew it until the engine was worn completely out and taken apart

It's definitely possible to change your starter without moving headers. Did it on my 1991 f150 inline 6 a couple weeks ago.
@TheRedneckStig Жыл бұрын
Not possible with certain aftermarket headers in my experience.
@mannypvd2296 Жыл бұрын
@@TheRedneckStig mine are stock headers... this makes sense then.

add a thermostat and housing to the back of the head, for an even water cooling flow. if you noticed how the wear in the cylinders changed from front to back

How about an Update? Plans to monitor & adjust Ignition Timing, AFR, install a rising rate fuel pressure regulator perhaps? I cringed when it started detonating, knowing the risk of damage was high. Have you read the turbo systems book "Maximum Boost" by engineer Corky Bell? It's still available at my local Barnes & Noble & Amazon too, I think. I have read 5 books on turbocharging & Corky's is the clearest, most detailed plan that guides you thru each part of a turbo engine System design. If you follow each step, you will have a powerful engine that will live a long life. He has his own shop near San Antonio, Tx., & does what he says in that book, "Maximum Boost". Buy that book! Knowledge is power (If it's followed!). You don't need luck, you need a smart & comprehensive plan so you don't waste your hard earned money & time. Best Regards, Paul.

Going to read the book as soon as I find time! Next videos will be failure analysis, what went wrong with the timing, and rebuilding the engine properly and tuning it correctly for boost
