When I bought my first house 15 years ago I needed a truck to remodel my home. Trucks were kinda expensive so I found a 1995 extended econoline van with 5.8L 351W motor. Paid $1800 for it. Thought to myself that as soon as I’m done with remodeling I’ll sell it. Well, I still use it to this day. All these years it served me well and we used it for many trips along California coast and many trips to Lake Tahoe and Nevada. When I got the van it was under 200K and now it’s at 247K. Still runs strong. Even though it has some electrical gremlins, it’s not bad for $1800. Maybe one of these days I’ll do a complete overhaul of the engine. Cheers 🍻

I got a 88 351W from my friends father. It came out of a tug (airport vehicle) where we worked. It was tired, had a tough life. I'd built a few mild 302's in my day. But my uncle talked me into the extra cubic inches. The swap to get it into my foxbody wasn't even difficult. Motor mounts, headers, etc. Went 30 over, 195 CC Trick flow heads, fresh rebuild. Stock rotating assembly with forged pistons. Lunati hydraulic flat tappet cam, forget what grind and lift. But it was very very streetable. Made power about 1500-6500. I'll never build another 302. 351W Is very much underrated. And the 94 Plus 351w was the hydraulic roller setup, too like he mentioned.

Every Ford has horrible exh ports. When I ran clevelands back in the day I couldn't figure out why thos big sewer ports wouldn't flow. Raised the floor and increased velocity and bam! But windsors, clevelands, fe's even 385 series's exh ports suck with that tight turn. Wish Ford would of made the exh come out the side of the engine instead of pointing down. The only reason it was a 200hp jump is because it started from such a low number. Most fords are .52-.58 hp per cube from the factory, lots of room for improvement.

[@tomnekuda3818]

@@jimmiller4667 Great comment......this is exactly what I experienced on the Ford engines. I've built several 429-460's with the stock heads and saw the same results. As soon as I ported the exhausts to lead the gas flow to the top of the port and filled the "dead" part of the port with Devcon F, the flow rate picked up and the engine made more power. The reason for the 'U-turn' exhaust ports was the shock towers on the Mustangs jutting in and squeezing the port into that miserable configuration. Throw on a good aluminum head with 'D' ports and, ZAP!, the power appears. I like all engines but would like to see more Ford stuff because we are inundated with Chevy small block and LS motors all the time and there's a lot of info already out there on those mills.

[@albertgaspar627]

When Ford invented the Windsor low deck (221-260-289-302) it was destined for the Falcon chassis, which had the famous shock towers in the way. That is why the exhaust port was so bad, and even the mighty Cleveland had issues--racers would just cut the exhaust port right off the side of the head and weld on a pipe to be the port coming out at a better angle, back in the 1970's (look up the old magazines if you don't believe it). What also hurt the flow was, compared to a same displacement Chevy, was smaller valves and port size. It helped low RPM torque production, but if you wanted flow, Ford expected you to buy a Tunnel Port 289 head over the counter(predecessor to the Boss 302 in 1967), a Boss 302, or a Cleveland. Or just go to a 427 big block. And check out the carb sizes--the 289 K code Challenger had what, a 585 cfm carb or something? As soon as Shelby gave it a bigger carb, intake, and Tri Y headers, it went over 1hp/inch.

[@deanstevenson6527]

In 1987, International Fisa Group 2 and 5 liter Quadrajet Holden V8 Group A racer Larry Perkins stated the endurance equity equation, which is very much the same as Ford deciding to run a carbed Big Block 427 in Le Mans rather than a 289 quad Weber engine. "460 hp at 6700 rpm beats 462 at 6900 rpm". It is exactly the same here. If an engine has to carry another 500 rpm to make 28 hp more than 432 hp @ 5600 rpm then it is technically "More" efficient than 460 hp @ 6100 rpm. The economics majors and statisticians know that by proportion, lower Hp Carb is actually more efficient. The sums are : 351.88 cubes x 5600 rpm / 432 hp = an Ai constant of 4561. Verses 351.88 cubes x 6100 rpm / 460 hp = an Ai constant of 4666. Hence for every rev per minute, the carb makes more power. Granted, this is not an EFi win you have to carry a lot more revs to access that extra power. In a drag race, power like than is an indisputable "yes" that you cannot say no to. In an endurance racing setting you access power through your gearing. An extra 28 hp could be another 15 mph top speed in a Fox Mustang if you could acess it. The old rule of taking a horsepower win anyway you can get it is not true if the engine has to be extended more in an edurance race. Any time I see a lower Ai ratio like 4561 verses 4666, I ask...what if I can rev it to 6100. Will it make 471 hp if I do other changes to the carb intake manifold combination so it revs and makes power at 6100 rpm? If 471, what about 475 hp. I'm convinced that the carb is able to eclipse the EFi power and torque curve. Being aspirational is about having a hard packed, hard nosed look at stealing more power to the dyno by seeing where the efficiency gains are. More power for less revs should be a goal, nit just extra power at any rpm cost.

I learned about the 351 in 1969 as a kid of 14 and found they had much more potential than the 289-302.

Fox bodies should have came with a 351 stock. I am a ford head and love 8.2 deck engines. But I have a special place for the 9.5 deck Windsor.

[@bradaycock1505]

I would like to see this engine run with stock e7te heads and comp 35-255-5 speed density cam. Then I like to see it run with the comp 35-255-5 speed density cam and gt40 iron heads.

[@mikesp1]

i did a 351w at R&E years ago I dont remember all the details but in the end stock short block aftermarket cam heads intake 5.0 computer and a vortech and it made 600hp it was ridiculous on the street

[@therobb5738]

I'm a 302 fan, the one in my 1995 ford f150 4x4 had it and took untold levels of teenage abuse.

[@monikhushalpuri]

TheRobb573 I can attest to this...had a 94 mustang, stock engine other than a stage 2 clutch, 3.73’s and a cold air intake, owned it for 3 years, first manual car I owned, survived hundreds of clutch drops, numerous trips from Toronto to Detroit where I had a weekend job as a roadie and drummer for a wedding event company and driving in Detroit was literally just drive how you want as long as you aren’t in downtown which meant cruising at 100 mph on the highways, drifting in the hoods with abandoned houses, clutch drops and burnouts, only had to replace parts that were original to the car like the radiator, and cooling fan, met my now wife and she loved that car when I drove it like I stole it...had a gf before her who was scared shitless of that car lmao I need to get another and it sounded mean with straight pipes

[@monikhushalpuri]

Would also like to add...the engine was still running fine and the clutch still had plenty of life when I sold it, and the t5 trans held up well,and never gave me issues, just don’t slam shift them and they’ll hold up to 500-600hp from what I’ve seen in a buddies vortech supercharged notchback

[@trillrifaxegrindor4411]

@@monikhushalpuri why sell it?

[@monikhushalpuri]

trillrif axegrindor needed a newer car for work and here in Canada insurance companies will only allow you to have a car 20-24 years old under you insurance as a secondary car...or you get classic car insurance...I couldn’t afford both and classic car insurance requires me to be 26 years old which I’m not...plus the trunk was getting rusty along with the subframe ...in a year I’ll buy another one but In brand new condition since I can Get classic car insurance starting April 2021 and money is getting a lot better now

[@akavene]

Thank you!!! You have helped me make a decision on the intake manifold dilema. Now I’m not taking anything away from the eldebrock intake manifold but I always wonder if the GT40 intake manifold were better but thank you anyways in doing a 351W

[@chocodiledundee1]

Awesome stuff , I’ve got a 351 C with 750 Holley in my ‘79 F-100 Ranger XLT ...yes I will definitely go with edelbrock , I was going to E.F.i it but wow this video changed my mind , thank you , I would like to see a video with a 351 Cleveland, this engine is legendary in Australia 🇦🇺 the tooling got send to Australia back in late 60’s we love it .

[@docholliday9791]

My f250 has a 351w its stock and is slow as hell but its really reliable

[@waynebollentin989]

I had a 88 Bronco I pick up cheap but very clean. I added headers, exhaust, pulleys, etc and for little extra fun 200 shot.This was years ago but it was fun to spank just about every kid with a mustang or Camaro at the time. I had the solenoids hidden in the air box and a 15lb nitrous bottle hidden in my speaker box. Used the cruise control to control it. People would look and see the stock motor and ask how is it so fast. I'd say it was built on a Wednesday I guess. It did have 33s with 4.56 gears also. Now that I think about it. I probably had more fun in that truck than the notch I had that would run low 7s and this was early 2000s. I'll tell you though. The headers, exhaust, pulleys, air filter, 180 thermostat and some timing would really wake up your trucking. More power and got better gas mileage. Either that or just add a 100 shot for when you want that little extra lol. I ran that truck from 98 to 2004 like that with no problems. I shouldn't have sold it. Wasn't driven all the time but at least once a week and little more in the summer. Sorry I rambled on so long if you even read down this far lol. This just brought back some really good memories. Take care.

[@gsppuffer]

Throw heads,cam and intake on it

[@docholliday9791]

@@waynebollentin989 hey man that's super rad, you should get another one. Ya I'm gonna do bolt ons to it just like that for now and when I run 35s on it ima go with 4:88s and swap to a dana60 front. I plan on heads cam and intake when i get the money but then i gotta figure out how to tune it cause there is not much options for the truck ecu. I domt think it's the same as a mustang ecu my half to save up and run a holley. My truck is the one in my profile pic i call it big red and it was my fathers

Thats some serious gains from a cam and heads. Jesus h.

[@shovel80z]

I like these videos but you should definitely add in the dyno pulls

[@13badbrad1]

I vote for boost thru the carb set up, no need for engine management that way and into an early falcon it goes, gasser style!

[@youtubeisbroken241]

It’s shocking that you even have to explain the original dyno number. But I guess people complain about the numbers because that’s not the first time you’ve explained it.

[@richardholdener1727]

I get that comment a lot-why does it make more than the factory hp rating

[@youtubeisbroken241]

Richard Holdener you should do a video of a stock (stock stock) with power steering, alternator, ac compressor, mechanical water pump and oe exhaust manifolds on a 5.3. Then strip it down and do all timing and af stuff and long tubes and show the difference.

[@wainfiggitty]

Woulda been cool to see boost with the carb

[@gregrogers3030]

wainfiggitt. Maybe the engine had some issues lol, he did say at the end of his dyno session that he probably should have gapped the rings a little bit before adding boost lol

[@dam4274]

That boosted motor could easily power a Class A motor home with an F53 chassis. Scrap the measily V10.

I know this is an old video but I'm pondering a low-dollar 351 build. Almost $7,000 for the Edelbrock top-end package, not counting the carb. Ouch!

I run a 351 based 408 stroker with mildly ported blueprint muscle series heads, a reground f303 11:1 Cr in my mercury and that thing runs hard when I sort the suspension out I'll take it to the track

[@alltheboost5363]

I wish that you would add at least a bar of Boost to every engine that you test... I've always been told that you can generally double the power. Also then you could see more widely how engines stack up against each other in a general way. I always thought the 5.8 Ford motor were junk but it did pretty good. I'm surprised you didn't slap a turbo on this one.

Richard, how did you avoid piston to valve clearance issues with stock pistons and a healthy sized cam like that? Were the heads 1.90 instead of 2.02?

Can timing?
