Ford Guys
I have checking out another Ford forum on advice from a customer of mine.
I might give some people a hard time but I think most of the people on this forum have forgotten more than some the people on the other forum will ever know.
There is some complete idiot on there saying his 5.0 block is all stock along with his crank being all stock and stock connecting rods.
He claims he is making close to 650 hp on this stock combo.
I have been just sitting back reading his posts for about 15 min. and I have come to the conclusion that the "Jack A-- of the year award" will go to him.
Is today's youth really that dumb or am I just getting old??
Has anyone seen my medication??

There was a guy a while back claiming his 4 cyl toyota truck was beating mustangs all the time on the street. I told him he should tell them that he's racing them the next time.www.adoptafriendforlife.org

I remember back in the '60's the Surfers ran a 392 hemi digger with 28 dollar reground crankshafts. But then, they probably weren't putting out that much power! Over 2 hp per cube is pretty tricky even with the good stuff. 400 runs, eh?
I believe it. Don't you guys believe it? If you do, I'll sell you a 302 just like it for 2000 bucks, small unmarked bills only please.

I would let these bare blocks go for only $500 a piece.

Welcome to CHR. I think that you need to hook up your vacuum advance. At part throttle when cruising you have less air and fuel in each cylinder, and the air-fuel mixture is not as densely packed...
