Farmers feed the world. They almost NEVER work alone, and they combine efforts and come together in co-operatives to secure their farms. They usually learn to do EVERTHTHING themselves and that's not just to be self-sufficient, but because everything costs a lot of money in farming. Respect for the farmers.

That is a FT motor not a FE. They added the one cubic inch to the displacement to differentiate the FT motors, there was also a 361. Some key differences are a port in the block for oil drain back from a air compressor for air brakes, and the exhaust crossover is in a different spot in the heads so you cant use FE intake manifolds. They typically had smaller valves and ports to increase low rpm velocity for improved low end torque. I's sure there are other things but that is what I can remember.

@MaxGiganteum

FT signifies "Ford Truck" and yes, there are differences between the engines though the exterior block dimensions are essentially the same. The FT engines were specifically built for low RPMs while operating with higher torque output and were never meant for speed. They were purpose built for heavy work and they were built to last which is why you'll find them in trucks over a rating of 1 ton along with buses or purpose built chassis which were sent to various coachworks for custom built vehicle platforms. The FT displacements were 330, 359 (supposedly), 361, 389 & 391 though you're most likely to find a 361 or a 391. So, can you use the FT parts with an FE engine? Yes and no. Some parts can be used without mods but others require machining. A few parts cannot be used at all. So, about those blocks. The blocks were supposedly cast using a higher quality iron and with wider internal journal webbing which makes many of them more desirable - though you should note that not all of the FT blocks were the same with what you could do with them - not all blocks could be safely bored out to be a 428 for example. Some of them had side bosses cast into the blocks making it easy to convert them into 4 bolt main blocks with the cross-bolt style. They also had steel versus iron crankshafts. The reality is that there are a slew of differences between the FE & FT engines when you look at ALL the parts that make up the complete engines so be warned. Be sure you know what you're getting if you scrounge for parts and know that many of the factory parts are inferior to aftermarket parts or even regular FE parts. The heads or exhaust manifolds would be a prime example. If you're serious about knowing the ins & outs of the FE/FT engines then the smart play would be to spend a lot of time on the WWW reading up on them or grab a few books covering them. Best wishes! - Max Giganteum

@TestECull
@TestECull Жыл бұрын
Underpowered is an easy fix, though, since they use FE based engines. Any FE will likely bolt right in, hotrod parts will likely bolt right on, and hell you could probably even get a 6.9 or 7.3 IDI diesel to just slide right into one if desired.- I would throw some gofast parts at the engine already in it, though.

The 391 The casting number on the side of the 105 block is shared with the 391 though. The reinforced main webbing is also shared along with the higher nickel content in the block material. Cylinder walls are usually thicker than the regular FE blocks but not always. The FE is considerably larger than the 302 or 351 The 391 with the original heads is almost impossible to get any type of performance out of them. They were cast with small ports and used small valves to promote high air velocity for efficiency and low end torque. Look for a "352" or a mirror "105" on the drivers side front of the block just below the head gasket area. Also look on the passenger side of the block for a casting number like D4TE-1 or something remotely similar. The spark plug arrangement on the FE looks like this: HEADSIDE \ \ / / BTW the valve cover covers both the head and a small part of the intake on the FE/FT 235 horse at 3800 rpm, and a bit shy on torque compared to the 390 but it's made at a lower rpm. I would say if it looks like a 302 or maybe 351 it is a bored and stroked 351 windsor block. The FE is unlike the rest not to be confused for them. The only one really close is the ford Y-Block. The popular ford V-8 engine before the FE. And it is really only the same in design not nessicarily apperance. Hope the information helps Kevin 2:30 @Junkyard Digs

I like the combine. We have the same one, but ours is a 94. Great machines. We also have an 86 IH 1640. The motor blew up 4 or 5 years ago in that one. We couldn't find another motor at the time, so we bought the 1660. As soon as we bought the 1660, we found a motor for the 1640. It came out of a tractor, so we need to change a bunch of stuff over to make it compatible with the combine. Then my wife's cousin sold me another motor that actually came out of an older 1660. They're pretty cool machines and fairly easy to work on. Great job on the videos and great job on the beans. They were better than mine are.

That's a man that knows how to dial in his 1660. We just went from a 1460 to a 2166. It's amazing how the internals of these machines have stayed relatively unchanged for 40 plus years.

Yeah, the new machines are all about sophisticated GPS and auto tracking systems for the best yield. They haven't changed much mechanically inside. Although they have gotten way more efficient over the years for sure. These days anyone can hold the wheel. Getting them dialed in is an artform though. I got to ride around in a Case IH 6150 a few weeks ago. It was a blast.

Kevin, Mook, you guys just solved a mystery that I had for years!! All the F-series trucks made in South-Africa had that same instrument panel in them, but in righthand drive form. Now I know where it came from!! We owned a 79 F100 with a 300cid motor for several years. Thank you!!!

Fun fact, Ford used 391FT blocks for the final run of 390FE's to use up the rest of inventory. My 76 F250 had an FT block. Unfortunately it still suffered from FE issues. Sunken valves, cracked oil galley in the block... really they are the same block, just different bore for distributor. FT had a bigger dist neck, so they used an adapter to run fe distributors in light duty applications. I ended up swapping the rotating assy into a good '75 block, flat top pistons, new-used rebuilt heads, FoMoCo "RV" cam, Carter 600CFM 4bbl and a Pertronix HEI distributor (thanks to your recommendations in previous videos). Truck hauls now.

These old gas powered grain trucks are literally everywhere in Texas and a great many can be found in good condition in the panhandle region. They all seemed to fall out of favor at the same time, once the diesel engine trucks became available. Diesels were more dependable, they could endure more abuse, do more work, and they used the same fuel as the tractors, because most gas powered tractors had already fallen out of use, long before the pickup trucks were upgraded to diesel. They would definitely make great restoration pieces and fabulous for parades, car shows, museums and addictions to private collections.
