The Fate of the Ford 387 Stroker - The Poorman's 351w Stroker REBuild

The ford 387 stroker has been one of the most cost efficient and fun builds we have ever built. It exceeded many expectations. To get it back to where it was at may take some serious work...

So thankful there's no LS swapping going on here

[@sorshiaemms5959]

AGREED 100%

[@mister313rd2]

I would love to see that 427w build. With Boss heads…beast

[@vrm86gt]

Yeah that should make power pretty easy

[@Neomustangs]

Hell ya

[@hotrodray6802]

Boss heads are big, but not the best.... But you already have them, so the price is right. 😁

[@Neomustangs]

@@hotrodray6802 100% and we will make them work on this!

[@NotchFox]

If memory serves me correct, the 1969 and 1970 Mustang Boss 302 had cleveland heads, and worked very well in trans am racing!

[@Neomustangs]

This whole engine is an inspiration from trans am

[@jameswallace7351]

No it didn't have Cleveland heads these heads were made for the Boss 302 and Ford adopted them onto the Cleveland a lot of people think that they used the Cleveland heads on the Boss but it was actually the opposite

[@tonydjr.8593]

Thank you a machinist knows what he’s talking about !! We kick ass with ours!!!

[@Neomustangs]

Yep

[@sorshiaemms5959]

Cant wait to see these builds completed and running

[@Neomustangs]

Ya we got a lot to build but 387 first then we do the alum 351 and clevor same time line

[@KnKsGarage]

Glad to see you’re putting it back together that’s awesome.

[@Neomustangs]

It worked too good not to

[@paulhudgins5120]

Very cool, would be awesome for a 427W build with boss heads.

[@Neomustangs]

Ya different and powerful

[@MikeJones-ri1le]

Build the 427 clevor and put it in the early f100 with a stick like you talked about Sunday. That would be badass!!!

[@Neomustangs]

Stay tuned !

[@WhipperSnapper51]

I pulled “football” rods out of an old oil bath 330 from a 69 f600. Currently using them as shelves for my F100 diecast trucks.

[@BigYahrell916]

I need to get a few hot motors in my garage. This stock 87 5.0 302 isn’t cutting it. 😂

[@StLMikie]

Thanks for the video Dano!

[@Neomustangs]

Hell ya !

[@jesseworkman4418]

A 427 would be awesome 😎

[@justinschmidt9180]

Awsome . I'd like to see the finer points no one will tell you when build a clevor

[@JUST_SOLE81]

Im about to dabble in the Yote swaps now. Dominating everything. You keep making me wanna stay old school though.🤔

[@Neomustangs]

There’s HP in pushrod. Yote is a good engine to drop In too

[@brollins1976]

Absolutely do the boss heads on top of the 427 and use a big solid roller

[@BrentFrancis-h8o]

Awesome factory heads for when they came out. Still work great!

[@Neomustangs]

Yep

@@Neomustangs Seems like a good deal for someone wanting to build a race car

[@rubblemadden]

Looking forward to the boss build.

[@Neomustangs]

i told dave no reason we cant make 650-700+ crank on a pretty simple build with that. One of the few engines builds id actually put on a the engine dyno.

[@rubblemadden]

@Neomustangs just a ideal maybe do the cost difference between the 351 vs 427 before you start the build. That way it will give guys at home like myself a choice. Because I'm trying to follow this build but my car is a 89 sc I got for $50.

[@brokentoolgarage]

Sounds about like what I hear when I go to the machine shop lol. 6 351w rods eh? Sounds familiar. I ran a comp 230@50 in my 360 Mopar on street and it was snappy. That 240 with the extra cubes and good heads should do great.

[@williamrose8944]

Lykin Motorsports built a 434 Clevor, he was on with Drag Boss Garage a few weeks ago

[@colinwatson3654]

427! 427! 427!

[@sbf_fox2434]

If you need to hone the cylinders and flycut the pistons, perhaps consider boring it and put in some new budget pistons in it.

[@Neomustangs]

Nah no need. It worked well before. Why spend the $400 on boring and another $500 on budget pistons

[@rickeydriskill1096]

The Boss heads would be good on top of a 427. Plenty of air for the big cubs.

[@Neomustangs]

Yep it’s what we thought too

[@kennyp4967]

Put some reverse dished piston in that motor

[@79beans347]

Can't wait for the clevor build, I was hoping to see them on the 387 to see how much power they would make but 427 dart block is gonna be a bad boy as well with those heads. Are you going to put the tongues in the ports with the raised exhaust port plates that they make for them or are u running them as is ?

[@Neomustangs]

I don’t think they will need it

[@79beans347]

@@Neomustangs prob not with that many cubes, it's going to have really good compression with the closed chambers and make some serious hp

[@TheEpmd40]

Dan, Do the Dart block with the Boss heads! Make it a monster!!!!!!!!

[@Neomustangs]

Thats what i was saying in the video. With as big as those heads are... 427 will air flow that in any RPM

[@scottglaister158]

always like the mad scientist videos ! is that a 73 thunderbird i see ?

[@billfioretti3013]

Cleavor! Big Boss 302. The best of both worlds. 7000rpm heads on a 7000rpm block. The engine Ford SHOULD HAVE produced and installed into their factory Musclecars. Mouse-motor cars would not be as popular today. Ford missed the boat on that one.

[@JesseRMartin67]

Flow those Boss heads and see if it’s worth it. Might not be enough for a 427, might be good on a budget 392..

[@Neomustangs]

It will def be plenty for a 427 or even a 408. Might be a nice match the the engine build

[@jasonherrick2368]

I'm doing a 408. Is it wise to use stock main caps and bolts?

[@Neomustangs]

Not a problem NA. Put a girdle on

[@lpvintage]

What would the CR be with a 62cc head and the 302 pistons?

[@stanleykendziorski7964]

Turbo clevor build, be the test subject so I don't have to lol

[@BrentFrancis-h8o]

Have you ever raced at KD?

[@Neomustangs]

Not yet

[@pimpovic2]

So what was the final answer on what killed the 387. I must not have paid enough attention in the previous videos.

[@Neomustangs]

Lack of oil - The oil pan - low on oil?
