I have a 1995 F-150 300 and looking to get a few more ponies out of her for hauling scrap metal! And eventually might restore the truck! Very nice build my man

I'd kill for a Vintage Inlines cylinder head. Nice one mate.

[@stephenandloriyoung5716]

Wow, that's nice. There seems to be a rising appreciation for the inline sixes, which I share, after going through my "tear it out and put in a V8" phase. Your work won't hurt that a bit. Exemplary.

The 300 C.I. FOMOCO straight 6 is literally BULLETPROOF!

@@100Aces And, particularly in this case, really nice to look at. I'll have to take your word on bulletproof, though. My appreciation for them is such that I have never taken a shot at one, even with a pellet gun. Sometime it seems that when car companies come out with something really good, they discontinue it.

Thanks! Still have it and am drag racing it again

[@JosephCowen-fz8vj]

Nah , ring an Australian wrecking yard , Ford Australia built factory 2V heads like this with bolt on alloy intakes , only $250 Aussie and $150 Aussie freight to US , or you can bolt the later Aussie Cleveland style head on , cross flow head , will bolt on any 144.170 , 188, 221, 200 or 250 , all the valves and moving parts are Cleveland 2V so parts in US easy to get , they came in alloy and had factory multi point injection, same cantered valves as Cleveland V8

Nice build!!! I've got a similar build minus the aluminum intake setup. One thing you scared me with... Please don't stand Infront of the car when revving it!!! I'd hate for anything to happen to you! Thanks for keeping it a six, it's a super cool car.

[@zapwatt]

Standing in front while revving is a safe place to be. Standing off to the SIDE is far more dangerous. Remember, a connecting rod never exits through the water pump.

[@Bull53]

That's probably cranking out about 200 Horse.

THANKS!! It has Pacemaker dual out headers, X pipe 2.25" pipes running into dual Flowmaster 40s and it dumps out by the axle.

[@lophloph07]

Sounds like a beast

[@jetski657]

Love the build mate, planning a very similar one myself. What diameter exhaust are you running? Did you have any trouble with piston/valve clearance with that much lift and duration?

[@MustangGeezer]

The exhaust is dual 2.25" out into a x pipe which exits into dual Flowmaster 40 series mufflers. We clayed the pistons for clearance and there was just enough. I want to say it was in the .050-.060 range but I don't remember what it is now?

[@jeffc8591]

Which 40 series flowmasters did you use. " Sounds killer " Thanks

[@MustangGeezer]

I think it was the original 40 series. I installed them back in the late 90's . I like them a lot better than the turbo mufflers I used to run on it.

[@glennredwine289]

Don't you want some splash guards in those wheel wells? That is a beautiful blue paint job and you must spent a pretty penny on it so don't you want to protect it? Really nice build other wise, now are you running an O/D transmission? I live in SoCal and in summer time gas goes up to $4/gallon.

is that a ford 200 six? the 200's have the intake cast as part of the Head

[@holdover8199]

As did the 144 and 170. What you are referring to is known as the "Log Head". This particular 200 has an aluminum head and matching intake manifold from Classic Inlines. WAY better breathing.

[@JosephCowen-fz8vj]

Ford Australia made factory 2V heads exactly the same as this, on the 250 ci six , bolt on alloy intake , easy to get in this day and age of internet , email Aussie wrecking yard .

[@kyledivine2822]

Where did you find the raised breather caps for the valve cover? I have short ones and oil seeps out through the rear one onto the valve cover. Thanks.

[@MustangGeezer]

Kyle, IIRC the breather extension tubes were part of a Moroso breather kit and the breather itself is a K&N clamp on breather. I glued the tubes onto the valve cover grommets and so far they are staying on just fine.

You're looking at thousands of dollars just in machine work to get close to 300 from a 300. Nobody realizes just how insanely tiny the head ports are compared to the cylinder capacity.
