I got mine last week. Thanks, man!

[@MrAlsbrooks]

got a fbo 302 in my truck right now, that's hurtin. can't decide between coyote swap or forced induction pushrod

[@ryurc3033]

Anyone who has ever experienced anything close to 500 hp in a short bed pickup knows, that's going to be a riot. In a world of 1000-2500 hp KZbin builds, it's nice to see a build still based in reality. Not a ford guy, but I still appreciate someone who builds a motor and is brave enough to stick it right on a Dyno. This is how you break in a motor that you want to perform. Start, warm it up(vary rpm between 2and 3k). Then put a load on it and give it the beans. My friends dad used to put every ford/Chevy motor he built for a customer in a 1 ton truck to break it in hauling a 3500lb gooseneck trailer. Probably did 20 like that, as soon as it was warmed up, and the cam has time to break in, it was pulling 10,000 lbs down the road as hard as it could. The Camaro that got a small block done that way was frickin scary.

[@Thecraig909]

I appreciate that!

[@JM.Performance]

This is actually very impressive. A 91 octane safe timing SBF making 500hp. Why I love my Ford motors… small block or big block

[@dillyb0612]

This is why I love 302s/ SBF!!!!! Absolute screaming rpm outta that little guy, and 500hp!

[@moparjo_9753]

Just depends on how much money you put it in the motor

[@dennisrobinson8008]

​@@moparjo_9753The AFR heads made it happen.

[@dennisrobinson8008]

Its a low rpm for a 5.0 to make 500HP. Very nice.

[@1gatomon]

That is an accomplishment. I still remember putting my fresh balanced and tuned 421 HO from my 1963 Grand Prix on the Dyno.. I had heard of Power around 450. But when It did 650 I almost passed out. Those where the days of Street Racing.

[@bigc6310]

Congrats on surpassing 500HP naturally aspirated! Another testament of Ford 302 pushrod power. These are great little engines that have stood the test of time and continue to perform and serve!

[@eppyschopshop]

Brooooo my heart was racing watching that thing climb to 7k. Good shit. I guess I won't antagonize you on Instagram anymore and start working on my other engine. 302 life 🤘🤘

[@booncha1971]

Awesome ! My anxiety was shooting through the roof watching it climb to 7000 rpm ! That's an Incredible sbf right there !!

[@Ray56z]

You take care of the bottom end of a Ford and it'll take care of you. I had a 40 over, non-stroked 302 built in the mid 70s. Believing a 8K Motorola tach would be the limit I found out it wasn't, 9300K on another liquid Motorola. It was a big block stomper-those chevy and poncho owners hated me, literally hated me to the point of near fights. Then I dropped in the stroked 351/406.

[@dennisrobinson8008]

​@@Ray56zwhat were your heads and rest of combo?

[@Ray56z]

@@dennisrobinson8008 Both of those builds were done by a shop in Quincey Illinois, '73-'74. Since my last surgery I've big memory gaps, that sleep juice is a M'F'er. I just tried calling an old friend, think he's asleep. They were a big fan of the 302 Boss clevor style with their own version. They were better known for dirt track power than street/strip but had no problem doing them either. Some of the stuff I never even knew what it was, they had it, told me what it would do, hand over the cash. Tight lipped with info, several builders of circle track engines in that part of the country. I never knew the hp, I never expected those RPMs, but those needed the RPMs for torque. I left the lights at 4200. I actually had another local dirt track builder that built mostly MOPAR do my 340, stroked only, for my '64 Barracuda, he was as tight lipped too. If ol' John-Hollywood-can remember more than this I'll do a complete different reply instead of edit so ya get the nitice.

Hat’s off for that build!! I had goosebumps when you guys revved it to 7,300, what a sound - and those power figures are insane!

[@Thecraig909]

Much appreciated Rob!

[@pdrphil8159]

Oooofta ! 7g's on a stock crank . Not too shabby all around.

[@dsshowerpan]

I'm a VW guy, but the sound of a small block Ford past 5,000 rpm sounds so good. Nice job

[@dennisrobinson8008]

91 octane holy shit. E85 will give 40 more hp and 25 ft lb. Awesome build.

I love it! Sbf ftw! ♥️♥️♥️💪💪💪

[@red_fox_flareside]

SBF baby. Love it

[@C6Z_Bob]

Making peak power all the way up there, you should be shifting that thing close to 8000 rpm for the best acceleration. That thing is gonna sound sick through the X-pipe!

[@kennethbrown5784]

Absolutely amazing

[@jeffpbillings7698]

Awesome engine. I wonder what the fox is making. Love the new shirt by the way. How about one for the Galaxie.

[@scottburns4515]

Man its awesome your combo made that power but what sucks and is awesome at the sametime is its going in yiur truck. I've got almost the twin to your combo and a 74 f100 swb, 2wd so basically the same truck. It will be fun in your truck and I xant wait to see how you like it. But that engine would be a total different animal in your foxbody or a fairlane. Eitherway its going to be awesome to see it in your truck.

[@2nickles647]

I've been wrenching on my friend Ford 302. He is pretty happy with my tuning progress. I feel good to help him.

Heck yeah bro. It's alive! And now I'm ready to hear it with that Y pipe setup

[@marcusmaddenov2451]

Congratulations Craig!

[@trailerparkcryptoking5213]

Sounds great! Back in 1980 I had a 289 in a ‘62 Ranchero that I shifted at 7200 RPM. It ran 11.80’s. Never dyno’d but back then there was no aftermarket for SBF’s as the 5.0 wasn’t born yet. Old factory heads, rods, distributor, etc. with good heads/cam and more RPM I suspect it would run 10’s in today’s world....

[@DoesItTho]

Impressive. Those are definitely some numbers to tout. Kudos to 909 Speed, homework done and test aced.

Great job on the motor young man! Keep up the great work.

[@DanzigDemento]

Awesome! Hope this one holds together!

[@dennisrobinson8008]

How is this one doing today? Before your build for high rpm builds we'd seek 69-71 blocks or boss 302 blocks with thicker mains and thicker castings or an aftermarket block. The "thinwall casting" 79-94 "5.0" mustang block was not really desireable for that, we'd think you'd harmonics would crack the mains and they would crack or down the lifter valley which you know is super thin. Knowing we can get into a high rpm build at a lower cost point is attractive. Did you stay with that 270@.050" cam that you mentioned early in the series because later on I heard something about an Anderson cam or did i hear wrong?

[@awfulcoffelsonecargarage8215]

My old 1969 F1 hundred has a 302 mine was stock but it was a lot of fun to drive three on the tree shifter but what do you think of them quick fuel carburetors I run a quick fuel race Q750 and I have a 750 black diamond that I just bought ran the race Q on a little stroker motor I built all I had to do was set the idle screw a little bit but pretty much straight out of the box I was curious to see if he did anything to that Carburetor or did you just bolt it on and use it with factory settings sounds like now all you need to do is put some weight In the back of that truck have fun with your Truck later bye

[@sykwookiee]

Wazzup my brother? glad to hang out...

[@danielfrye7651]

In the future if you go 351 you get a cleaveland with the 4v heads just a suggestion to do something different if you’re wanna know more about the cleaveland check Richard holdners the other small block ford 351 cleaveland series. Either way that’s one nasty moon reving 302 can’t wait to see the truck get down.

[@Carado5150]

Sentences are hard. Cleveland.

[@dennisrobinson8008]

Sweet! It made all that power at a "low" 7200 rpm. I was curious how she is doing today? We were just talking about we don't see stock blocks much over 6500, that if you do it's usually a 69-71 that has the higher nickel content and stronger mains and thicker bores.

What cam are you running and what is the oil pressure at idle?

[@speedyg2577]

Just put a 6500 chip in it so you don't boat anchor another engine because the tach in your noggin is defective. Unless you plan on road racing it where the RPMs will live that high it is useless for the street. Would rather have more torque to get that truck moving. You will figure it out when you mature.
