Great video! I really appreciate how y'all pulled one of the plugs and showed the difference between the engine sounding "normal" vs. missing. A lot of the old guard/experienced gearheads know what to listen and feel for, that new gearheads don't. Possible other video idea, if you could play audio clips of various engine/drivetrain conditions and kinda explain what sound you're looking for and what it means.

One of the things I like to do is use a temp scan gun to identify which cylinder isn’t contributing. But on cast iron you have to do it before it’s heat soaked, on headers it seems to be easier to identify. Even after it’s hot.

Between 4:00 and 4:09 you said the engine has problems. "At idle it felt like it had a missing dead cylinder?" then at the end of the video you said it was a good engine. So I do not understand why you said it had a problem at idle?

AFAIK only Ford OHV V8 engine to use 14mm gasketed spark plugs were the '54 239 & 256(Mercury) Y blocks. With introduction of 272 & 292 for '55, switched to 18mm tapered seat plugs. Used in all year FE, and small blocks till around '76 when plugs changed to 14mm tapered seat. Those were already used in Cleveland & 429 CJ/SCJ plus Boss 302 & 429. OK I didn't mention Boss 351, essentially Hi-Po Clevelands. Nothing really unique about those. Aftermarket aluminum generally use ¾" reach gasketed 14mm plugs. The aftermarket irons probably use 14mm ½" reach, never owned a set.

Are you guys gonna do a dedicated tuning video? Would love to see y'all tackle timing, carburetor adjustment, rocker nut adjustment, etc. I've gotten to the point where my engine starts and it runs well enough to test drive, but it idles high, chatters slightly, and definitely isn't tuned ideally; watching somebody who knows Ford small block engines work with theirs would be a Godsend for me. Cheers!

+++++ on compression diagnosis. I've been cranking engines without spark to determine possible compression problems since days of buying wholesale gems from dealers back lots. One morning found nothing promising at my favorite Pontiac dealer, left went back to shop. Couple hours later my partner shows up with a Dodge Omni, I passed on. It's going thut, thut, thut. I say "Bubba, that thing has a dead hole"(cylinder). Just needs a wire or plug was his reply. I bet him neither would fix it & pulled out compression gauge. Zero compression, I won. He didn't know I'd already given it the crank test. Let's say he learned something that day.
