Yeah, 90° not 180° or backwards, he can just move the wires, it will get there. I hope it is just timing and not a real valve problem. The pumps on that carb could nead a different cam. Is this the first crank up? He has no load on that engine, just the flywheel, I would just let it Idol, no revving at all.
@@420PeterGriffinyou're wrong man. I have an entire junkyard full of square body's from the mid to late 70s that came with factory "GM Corporate Blue" painted engines. My best friend in high school got his grandpa's 77 c10 pickup that was bought new off the lot...he got it when he turned 16, it had 36k miles and the engine looked brand new....it was painted gm blue from the factory. He still has it and I actually rebuilt the factory Q jet last summer and it still has most of the factory blue paint on the block. It still only has 76k miles.
600 Is ok for you cruising your 302 mustang but it's been proven time and time again on the dyno 350s like 750s and the 400 makes it's best power with 830 cfm to 900. Ford may do fine but they don't make power and he painted it ford blue so I understand the mistake
For those of you freaking out about the distributor: Do you see the engine in the car? NO! You have to remove it anyway when you install it or you will crack the cap!
I love how everybody likes to act like they know what they’re talking about, like dude just put the motor together let him fine-tune it and stuff before you dog on em. He’s probably just excited to have it together and running at this point.
I have the same . Set up until I came across this motor. Vacuum advance on the opposite. Side . I was wondering crazy. Yes brand new enjine . Build up.
What goes into something like this? I wanna make my 97 Tahoe have more power but I have no idea where to begin and I don’t want to blow it up at the same? Please help
Something I have learnt that might help you Drag racers don't use the vacuum advance on Distributors its for economy. Hope this helps. Nice engine instant throttle response is that a double pumper carburettor ?? 😅😅😅🎉🎉🎉😅😅
I’ll check both, oil pressure is fine and I’ll check the valve lash. I’ve heard on these models too the dipstick can catch the crank and make a noise too.
To each their own. Its a motor, yep gets loud when you jam throttle. Could sound better, could sound worse. Can i really decipher anything from that, no. Seems low compression based on how slow idle settles down..
Put a convertor on it and see if you can get your quik bursts of revs out of it, not even run in, i can see some main bearing failures coming up hahahaha
Stock cam and distributor is a tooth off and the thing is way over carbed see it shoot the raw fuel out that didn't get burned besides if that POS Holley keeps over feeding you will wash the cylinders and the rings will never seat that is no way to get the rings to seat and do a proper 500 mile break in anyway when it smokes like a train and runs like a dog remember this comment and the break in for not just the cam but the rest of it as well the old guys say to break it in like your gonna run it so there ya go are you gonna run it in short blips like that I assume not don't baby it but also have the right size carb on it as well that looks like monster on there take it off
The cam is slightly bigger than stock but more or less is, yes it’s not timed properly yet just waiting for a pointer so it can be done exactly. Would it not shoot out flames anyways with it being such short headers ? I agree on the carb it needs to be swapped, the double pumper carb came off of a drag car and we only used it to start it up for a minute and show it running, not to keep it on. Anyways thanks for the advice, Im going to get the corrections done and get the proper carb on there.
When it comes to timing don't worry about base timing focus on total timing of about 34 degrees btdc at about 2500 rpms all in set the distributor up to do that like I said base timing is nothing it's a baseline as long as it starts well and sounds happy base timing can be 22 or 25 deg it doesn't matter to get the best performance and best fuel mileage curve the distributor and get total timing in fast it will run great make sure you have good ignition components module cap rotor coil wires plugs etc and you won't have any problems with it more guys have said oh I need a new carburetor when it was all ignition issues and I've seen many hei distributors with stuck advance mechanisms too so many people leave so much on the table by not doing this basic stuff it's amazing it should like octane boost and w out it almost ping but not quite depending on compression ratio
Yep going to change out the old plugs anyway, one cylinder seems to be not burning as much as the others or it is out because the header has not got the colour like the rest. Could be the plug, wire or anything so I will probably end up buying new wires. It’s not been touched in a while so next time we get time we’ll have a play with the distributor to get it perfect 👍
Imagine putting a motor in a car with that distributor facing the wrong way so the vacuum advance is right up against the firewall good job
He reving his newly painted motor nobody said he knew what he was doing🧐😂😂
HAHAHAHAHAHA! And no crackcase ventilation thats why the carb is running rich and shooting them flames
I would say There’s a pretty good chance this motor ain’t going in a car. Probably being used as a power unit for irrigation would be my guess
Who would want an engine in all the primary colours? Blue block, red 180° out distributor, and yellow plug wires...
Show us your motor build then..... We'll wait.....
Geez, distributor installation is top notch!😂
Revs quick with no converter 👍🏻
I love the way the distributor is installed 90 degrees off, may be hard to set timing this way in a car or truck.
Yeah, 90° not 180° or backwards, he can just move the wires, it will get there. I hope it is just timing and not a real valve problem. The pumps on that carb could nead a different cam.

I've watched 3 rebuild video's.....
So far this is the only one that STARTED! Good job.....👍
Not gonna lie it looks good but painting it Ford engine blue is gonna eat up 20hp easy.
Some chevrolet engines came blue 😁
@@mattrogers4573none that were any good

Nice one! Look forward to seeing it driving some wheels!
Nice engine stand setup! I like it!👍
Thanks! 👍
Awesome let’s go Chevy
They sound way more insane when they get around 11:1 but still mean
Now we have an engine stand!
That a good place for it 👌
1980 Camaro 350 was a factory blue
Revving a Briggs and Stratton kept it in tune and let the neighborhood know I was keeping busy
I hope that engine isn't just rebuilt !!!
Not just rebuilt, had been run 4-5 times before this video
Right, that's the worst thing you can do to a fresh rebuild.
Sounds like a stock low compression 350
it doesn't sound all that healthy.
@@aftermathwhite4955 Ford blue too..
@@CrazyHorse420 right
😂 bone stock
Idling at 4500
Great throttle response ❤
Sounds awesome
Put the breeder on it so that you have correct vacuum.
Will do cheers 👍
And it's got a Holley. Snappy!
My guys using his whole arm to work that throttle.
Man I love a small block I just hate how so many people paint em different colors
The ford blue really brings it out
I know right but some others beat you to the joke
@@SGB123 sadly lmao, I mean it’s such a gorgeous color, I love old school fords, that engine is real nice though
Yes it is and is a nice colour than the usual Chevy orange I think

@@YourMom-mq4zc 150 more cfm for 48 more cubic inches?? Ever heard of volumetric efficiency
Distributor is turnd 180 from where it should sit, vac advance should be facing carb
Thanks, nobody would have guessed, what a great eye.
F’ed that one up!!! In more ways than one! You’ll get better, hopefully!
Nice job good for a malabu
Sounds like a claimer at hub of the valley
Sounds like a Wino on skid row

hot damn she's snappy!
I got a 350 in my suburban gmc 1985 with a brand new transmission
I have the same . Set up until I came across this motor. Vacuum advance on the opposite. Side . I was wondering crazy. Yes brand new enjine . Build up.
Same sound as any SBC in good condition w/open exhaust !
Nice proyecto 👍 beatitud
that raw gas has it spitting 🔥
Your distributor is backwards yo.
That's how you get the back fire/burbles
I guess he's not worried about break-in properly😂😂😂
What goes into something like this? I wanna make my 97 Tahoe have more power but I have no idea where to begin and I don’t want to blow it up at the same? Please help
They always sound tough until you bolt the torque conv. or clutch on.

@@bullfrog1807 deal 🤝 lol
Rotate that distributor to point the vac advance forward. And that looks like a set of under-manifold plug wires.
Cheers 👍
Rev the shit out of it.
Nice headers , they would be better if they were the same length.
Why, it's been proven that unequal length header tubes make more power.
Hope your not going to race that ? Lol good for ????¿ Don't give up !
Seems like the distributor is 180 out that vacuum advance should be pointing up towards cylinders 2 and 4
hell yeah
Calidad el motor 👍
500 - 1000 rpm range is amazing. Does the throttle open any further???
Might want to re-clock that distributor 😂
At least it's the right color
Makes a good paperweight
To bad a guy gets excited and doesn’t remember to do the before the rebuild run and dyno then a after. Those are the best lol
Something I have learnt that might help you Drag racers don't use the vacuum advance on Distributors its for economy. Hope this helps. Nice engine instant throttle response is that a double pumper carburettor ??
😅😅😅🎉🎉🎉😅😅
Custom mounting plate on engune stand for sbc?
SBC painted ford blue….cool.
Did painting it ford blue help it any?
Nice ❤
Do I hear a tick ?
Check the oil pressure or valve lash
I’ll check both, oil pressure is fine and I’ll check the valve lash.
I’ve heard on these models too the dipstick can catch the crank and make a noise too.
Correct color any way!!
Is that dist in backwards or is it just me ??
See ya painted Ford blue that why it's running so good ??😂 Hey your distributor is in backwards
Hope vac advance don't hit the firewall sounds peppy
Yes it needs moving round
Vrai musique❤❤❤
Ford Blue Chevy Motor , I guess it works if you have a blue car or truck ,If not , it's just wrong .
You painted it blue!? Chevy orange man. Blue is fords color.
What run stand is that?
350 hp ?
Haven’t had it on the dyno yet but probably around 250 as it’s more or less stock (only big difference is a better cam)
1st gen vortec?
Is that ford blue?
Why are u jacking the throttle like that.
Blue Chevy???
dang you didn't put a double pumper on her.
It’s a loud one
I knew it wasn't a fosse engine
Long tube headers please
How much $ ill buy today

With my audio it sounds like it’s ticking like a timebomb
Put a convertor on it and see if you can get your quik bursts of revs out of it, not even run in, i can see some main bearing failures coming up hahahaha
What the hell color is that?
Blue
@@SGB123 Just checking...thought I was seeing things.
They were painted blue in the late 70s and early 80’s, so it’s nothing too foreign
Should be breaking in the cam. 2500 rpm for 30 minutes.
how much
What's up with the ford blue block on a Chevy should be Chevy orange
Says who, doesn’t have to be
Sounds good
Why ford blue? Not that it doesn't look good, but I could never paint a chevy in ford blue
Its too lean with those open headers
Or might need to dial the timing give the guy a break
A piece
Why is it popping? I don't think it's supposed do that.
Open headers
@B00TH05 I've built hot rods with open headers never had that problem. Hmm...
Pretty ford blue
🤣
It sounds like it's sneezing
Why Ford blue
You have the distributor in wrong!!!
Stock cam and distributor is a tooth off and the thing is way over carbed see it shoot the raw fuel out that didn't get burned besides if that POS Holley keeps over feeding you will wash the cylinders and the rings will never seat that is no way to get the rings to seat and do a proper 500 mile break in anyway when it smokes like a train and runs like a dog remember this comment and the break in for not just the cam but the rest of it as well the old guys say to break it in like your gonna run it so there ya go are you gonna run it in short blips like that I assume not don't baby it but also have the right size carb on it as well that looks like monster on there take it off
