  • you have some specs on the parts used? i have the 429 in my 72 country squire but would love to boost the power a little by taking all the emission crap of and make it like 360/400 hp

    Greetings from Holland.

  • Why do I have a feeling you are more of a bike mechanic?

  • Lets see if we can spin a rod bearing to while were at it

  • beautiful mate, congrats on the build. looks and sounds sweet (coming from a Chev guy)

  • If you need any specs for that motor I have the books 67-75 Hopping up the ford.

  • that is dangerous to do with that beard buddy lol but great sounding motor!

  • WOW I have the exact same truck, and also have a 70 tbird drivetrain. what are the chances, any pics or vid of it complete? I am using a ranger frame though. just have to clean and do a gasket swap on the motor and tranny. cant wait to see it complete.

  • @wayradscreenname that's my grandpa

  • I remember that first start after a rebuild, when the engine is on the floor, and you start it up and the rush you get to think "I built that", only to realise what you have built is now burning a hole in your trousers.... :P

  • really nice sound man

  • high lifts

  • was everything broken in befor this vid??

  • youll burn a valve

  • ur not gonna burn a damn valve if u runopen headers im tired of people saying that ive got a 302 derby car i run no exhaust wats so ever on it no headers becuz its in a civic and wont fit i drive almost 3 or 4 hours every other day for the last 2 years

  • I would give anything to put one of those in my 95 Stang :)

  • I had a 429 thunderjet that I pulled from a 70 t bird. Complete with the C6. was going to use it for a project but ended up selling it. Wish I would have held on to it!

  • nice r u puttin in that truck in the background

  • Sounds like it's got a nice lumpy cam in it... that's for sure!

  • I do hope you didn't stick it in there with that failmatic and those iron exhaust manifolds...Would be a waste of a perfectly good 429 if you did.

  • ....just need a car to stuff it in now! - oh and maybe a shave!!!

  • If you would read the description of the video, it notes where the motor is going..As far as the shave-not all of us are into looking pretty!

  • @martine737 If he gets any closer to that carb he won't have to worry about the shave..

  • Dang that is one cool motor, and its 560hp wow.. I got the same motor but its about somewhere 370 hp... But thats cool keep up with the project your going though.

    I dont know how your is 560hp...

    Good luck

  • a real beard burner!
