Trey_Dog650 Posted April 28, 2019 Report Share Posted April 28, 2019 Hola folks, long time no see. i wonder who is still around from a few years ago. Anyways i am building up carb'd 302 v8 in a 65 ford f100. i just got this thing and low and behold it has a blown head gasket.... so i have it torn down and have the heads removed, but i was curious what it would take to possibly super charge this thing. I'm always on a budget lol. so if a super charge is too much then would there be any internal upgrades that i would benefit greatly from? im looking to build a reliable daily beast. i would like it to turn heads but i dont need to win races with it. i think i will take it to the track like once just to see what she can do and thats about it. anyways i look forward to some responses and ideas hopefully 13 Kia Forte Build! 07 Hyundai Accent Build ***Super Seller*** N8ball2013 And then he gets to say ok all you guys were right. im sorry for being a dummy poo poo head.

Ron36 Posted April 29, 2019 Report Share Posted April 29, 2019 Great truck might be cheaper to find a built motor and trans combo with a pro charger on it . If U don’t want that U need a bottom end rebuild plus maybe sleeves and it can be ongoing, I would just beef up that motor it’s got a lot of options for a daily and parts for days , super chargers and turbos are tuff on any daily driver. I want pics that’s a badass truck. 2022 Ford Maverick on 22’s Skar SK1500.1 on 4 Skar VD-8’s Mids Sundown Super tweeters, Skar TX 6.5 components on Skar SKM400.4 LC2 for audio control , XS Power D680 XS Series Extra Battery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wishuponasub Posted April 29, 2019 Report Share Posted April 29, 2019 If it were me I would look for a stroke kit. I think you can go up to a 347 without too much hassle. Throw a top end kit on with some good headers out to your exhaust of choice(if any) and call it a day.

Trey_Dog650 Posted May 3, 2019 Author Report Share Posted May 3, 2019 Ok so after a little research I’m just going to upgrade the cam, and get roller rockers and lifters. Gonna port and polish my heads and see how that goes. I underestimated the cost of supercharging lol i think I’m gonna turbo it in a few months pending how this rebuild goes. 13 Kia Forte Build! 07 Hyundai Accent Build ***Super Seller*** N8ball2013 And then he gets to say ok all you guys were right. im sorry for being a dummy poo poo head.

Miguels Posted June 6, 2019 Report Share Posted June 6, 2019 If I remember correctly you have to brace that block or it will split in half. Don’t remember if that’s the engine you have or not but I know that was the issue on some ford. You’re gonna want to stud the heads as well if you want to boost it my logshttp://www.stevemead...-my-new-set-up/my blow through loghttp://www.stevemead...future-updates/ 96 ss http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/164094-96-impala-ss-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miguels Posted June 6, 2019 Report Share Posted June 6, 2019 More pictures of damages I found online. It’s been so long I read up on it but there is something you can do to it so it can be a little stronger my logshttp://www.stevemead...-my-new-set-up/my blow through loghttp://www.stevemead...future-updates/ 96 ss http://www.stevemeadedesigns.com/board/topic/164094-96-impala-ss-build/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
