Searching yards and collections of classic cars and parts. Restoring Classic Fords and the rebuild of my 1964 Galaxie 500XL found on Barn Find Hunters!
Look at you go Omar! Too many guys today don’t touch their broken cars because they don’t have the perfect tools, but not you. I salute you! From an old guy who did the same
Omar! Followed along with your 428 build over the last few years as I built my 390. Glad to see you just cleaned this one up and dropped it in to get the Galaxie on the road! Here's a link to my 390 running, if you're interested... ru-vid.comL_4K6ZMU__A?si=scdnEHwB5yGQNHkm
The Redemption 390 right on bro I knew you would make it happen. I would have considered fresh rods and main bearings if for anything peace of mind probably would have helped with the oil pressure also.
It appears you have no place to add oil to your engine with the thunderbird valve covers. The engines with those valve covers had a crankcase tube on the intake to add oil. Maybe lm missing something, but that seems to be the case. Keep up the good work!
I don't know of you know this but back in the day people took the Tri-Power of the engines because it is difficult to keep them in tune. I am talking more about the Pontiac GTO's but I am sure the same goes for Fords.
Hi Omar, anxious to see the test drive.always liked the 390,Had a cyclone with a modified 390 with a four speed.lots of fun.my all time favourite is the 427 side oiler.
Looks like someone has been cutting on the cross member with a cutting torch ??? Am I right ... I'm sure you will enjoy the 390 in that car . I've had a few of them a while back and was pleased with the highway crusing torque these engines have ... Enjoy and good job . And always helps to have a buddy helping ...
It'd be nice if you could build it into a 401.. that's what the 401 was horsepower. It was a 390 with three two barrels. That would be nice to set it up like a 401 390 cubic inch
