What a waste of money
I grew up in St. Louis, I remember seeing Big Foot at Midwest 4wheel drive on the hill under the Flag. You could see it from highway 270
They took that engine back out cuz I went to the monster truck hall of fame when Bigfoot one was there and they had put another engine in it idk y u would have all that work done and then take it back out
A very nice SEMA commercial.😂
Too bad it's a Ford.
I am not a chevy fan and still not ! Just saying lol. Bigfoot is #1
26 degrees of timing and 5k???
FORD, GM, and MOPAR are all equally good as each other. They all have great stuff and they all have shitboxes. Anytime someone says they don't like a manufacturer it just makes them sound ignorant. Dumb as rocks argument older then the dinosaurs based on zero evidence to substantiate the claim.
Im sorry but theirs no way i wouldn't have dynoed the crap out of that engine..With the best machine work from Kasse and beefed up rocker arm stands this thing was ready to go to 7500 rpms. Why you would not dial in the best timing and fuel curve and get a real power number after all that hard work from everyone involved just baffles me. I guarantee Kasse would've rung it out and got max power. He did a BOSS 429 for me and a buddy for his BOSS 429 Mustang and it runs great and those guys are super nice..Thanks Cliff
all that time and efford, and don't show any decent dyno runs or power runs??
As a die hard Ford guy, this is awesome. Long live Bigfoot!!
Didn't say how you clock the piston rings
I absolutely love this show lol I just keep re-watching episodes especially when they rebuilt the old junkyard 460.i have one myself having a hell of time find exact parts they use in building there's tho.
6:08 If it were me, I wouldn't be using a torque wrench on the rod bolts for an engine such as this….
Toss that thing aside, and use a stretch guage on them instead.
But that's just me.. 🤷🏻
1:56 C'mon boys… Offset those seal ends in the groove just a little bit…
I use to run the Kindig / Predator carbs.
Big problem were the fuel bars and no idle circuit but boy they made plenty of horsepower when they kicked in.
The BEAST
Mechanical pornography 😍 strong reliable horsepower 🇺🇸
Most of these guys videos use ancient methods which can and will confuse allot of ppl I watch the build a small block using tools to make it look like they were working for NASA
I will love to watch this program but it seems to be white oriented so better go find something more diverse
In these days of super modern high tech engines, I love seeing this old school power plant get a second life.
I think I heard this motor in person bigfoot ran at the Seattle Kingdom 1981 ish
That seemed like alot of silicone
Left us hanging on the dyno pull. The crowd BOOS 👎I made popcorn for nothing. I'm sure there were some off-camera pulls
BigFoot is an American icon.
I knew there would be atleast 1 comment that goes. I'm not a Ford guy but ! You gotta love it.
Cut it for fire rings, didnt show or mention putting the fire rings in.
i'm Thinking 426 Hemi,This is Ford Engine
I wish all the turds from High School many moons ago that said BigFoot had a Bowtie heart would see this. LMAO!!!
Very cool to see all of this but kinda disappointed they didn’t do a 1000 hp pull on the Dyno
Guys on this show don't speak normally.
I was shocked the bigfoot is powered by an uber cool, crazy powerful blown 10.5 liter motor (basically 5 Evo engines!)
Who else is here binging these videos?
