On a stock replacement 5qt pan would you run 5qts or 6qts? I've heard both ways.

FE Technical Forum / Engine oil dipstick and tube.
« on: February 02, 2021, 08:49:39 AM »
What are you guys doing for new engine oil dipstick and tube? I have a 67 390 going in a 55 Ford f100 and the original dipstick tube is garbage.

I just remembered he has a 66 Impala SS that has a ZZ427 crate motor which runs about 480hp/490ftlbs so he knows what to expect. I will talk to him soon on budget and expectations.

FE Technical Forum / 390 Build
« on: August 26, 2020, 09:47:45 AM »
I'm working on a guys 54 f100 that someone swapped in a 390. I got a 67 390 out of a car that he wants me to get rebuilt and wants to have a "strong 400hp" out of it. What would you guys suggest for parts to get me to that point? Please no negative comments I've tried asking on facebook and they just suggested going to a windsor but obviously I'm not doing that.
Thanks for the help!
It does have block hugger headers on it already. I do know he wants it to sound healthy but I know that doesn't mean a whole lot. It will be more of a toy than a daily driver.
With out porting what can 67 heads handle?

I was using about a 125hp shot of nitrous when I ran that 11.96. My truck weights about 3450lbs. I would like to run in the upper 11s.
A buddy of mine run a 600hp 460 in a 66 f-100 lwb that weighs 4300lbs and he runs a 12.07. So I figure if I can get around 500hp I should run upper 11s.

I would like to be around the 500hp mark if possible. I believe with my heads I will be around 11:1 for compression. I should be able to run premium fuel yet I hope.

This is far from a daily driver! I need help from you guys that have done this a time or two. The last cam was a well that looks neat lets go with that. I need more direction this time.
I have one of the few fe's in my area and want to put on a good show!

Thanks Jay!!I am up for suggestions on camshaft. I would like to stick with a hydraulic flat tappet. I do drag race a few times during the summer but mainly it is just for fun on the street.

I have a set of off the shelf assembled edelbrock 72cc heads that I have ran for 4 or 5years now. Is there anything I need to worry about or look for? The motor (428) is disassembled right now getting ready for a 462 stroker kit. any help will be great
