You must be a good driver, cuz I've never miss shifted and over revved to 8000RPM.

My 02 was not stock. Just as my 351 i have is not stock.
But to give you an idea as what was there the Motor was a balanced and blueprinted motor. It had a Stock block. The bottem end was built as a drag boat bottom end.

I'm sure your 302 bottom end had all the best parts in it. I remember something about balanced stock rods with ARP rod bolts? Even if it had billet rods, steel crank, and ceramic coated pistons, a stock Ford 302 block couldnt handle the THD created by hitting 8000RPM. There are a lot of other factors in a SB Ford with a Vic Jr and "ported" E7TE heads that decide that it will not only not make power past 6000RPM but it will not survive far beyond 7000RPM much less 8500.

I have told people over and over that the builder was into building race car motors and hydo as well as drag motors.
What failed was roller setup and it spun a roller lifter that jamed the cam and snaped chain and well then bad things happen fast.
Zexhuffer helped push the car off the road that night.
After that car got a mostly stock 02 to get me by then i went 351's
As for E7 heads. This might help stang seller out. I ported the shit out of them.

Ohhh, you must be better than Paul Silva, Tommy Morana, Nick Agostino, and Sammy Davis Jr combined!!

You know the emisions hump in the Exhaust of E7s well i grined that off then taped the hole and put a cast stich in there.
|
|
Good job! How else would you get spent exhaust gases out of there at 8500RPM with that damn thermactor hump in there???

Now when you open them up and trust me i opended them up alot, I also did all around the vaulve stem and smothened it out as well asl doing sides botom and roof. I didn;t bother to rase the bottom and go that far.
|
|
Excellent, I'm glad you didnt "raise the roof". I thought that song died back in '97.

But i also did everything i can do to chamber then the builder put time in to them to do more tricks.
Note i would not sugest doing this much work to a set of heads but when money is tight and you have free time then hey it dont hurt to play. Nowthe intake was a Vic jr, Not a super Vic. they were not even made then. I got the Vic jr used and it had been ported out and worked over. I had to open heads up alot to get them portmatched to this intake so ended up doing more work to the heads on the intake side as well.

Excellent work Pinocchio, did the old Man lend you the magic die grinder? Those heads must have had bigger ports than a set of 1971 Cleveland 302 heads and great velocity too!!

Rest is easy i have told people time and time again i had 540 lift roller cam and not the X303 but its alot like it.
Stang seller if u want more info that easy to do.
If you want to know whats in my little 351 i can give you everything and you can go off and ponder that motor too.

Thanks, but I'll stick to motors that have actually been built.

There are 2 ways of doing things, Powerfull motor light car and you dont need to rev as high. Or heavy car with motor that dont make as much power but revs higher.
I took hard way. And 02 was a stone till it hit 3000rpm then it came to life
|

If I took your advice and built either a car with lots of HP and torque but heavy body weight, or a lightweight with no bottom end power but lots of top end grunt..... wouldn't they theoretically run similar times??
I go at you because the shit you say doesnt add up. Dont take it personal. But I do take it personal, because you are insulting my intelligence by trying and TRYING to pass this crap off as a reality. It's just make believe, Peter Pan.
