1971 Ford F100 (302/C4) was the first engine I ever removed and helped rebuild. This video brings back memories of working with my dad!

I've been following your progress on this truck. Just got to say, keep up the good work and thanks for going into detail with everything you're doing. It's amazing how much easier these old trucks are to work on. That's the fun in owning one. Thanks again for showing us your work and helping us out for when we go to do our own projects.

Did that when I was a senior in high school in 1980...all I had was a set of S-K open/closed in wrenches, 1/2” drive ratchet, breaker bar and socket set. A dirt floor and a chain hoist hanging from the beam of my Dads shop on the farm. Fun project!!!

I'm a new subscriber. I enjoy watching your videos. I love the old Ford stuff too. It's so simple to work on. But I don't agree about the front clip. The front clips are so easy to pull off these trucks. You can even leave the hoods on them. I always pull the front clip if the truck is a 6 cylinder or big block. It just makes it so much easier to pull. The old FE engines are a whole lot of weight. I'd rather have to lift the engine only a foot or so instead of 5 or 6 feet. I've pulled enough of them that I've got to experience chains breaking, the hoist failing or tipping over. Nothing gives you a "Oh crap" moment like a big ol FE V8 hanging 6 feet in the air and then it comes crashing to the ground. It may take a little more time but makes the job even easier. Plus it also makes cleaning/painting the front of the frame easy too ( if a full restore isn't being done ) .

Hey I'm following your video after years of procrastinating about doing my own work. Always been an aspiration of mine since high school (now 60). I have a 78 F150 2WD. The video is spot on except my clutch is different or you edited out removing the spring. Anyway Kudos to you. This inspired me to pull my engine and it worked! Thanks and keep them coming.

Awesome. Are those chains attached to bolts that are in holes designed to be used for hoisting the engine out or did you just use whatever holes you could find? Can’t wait to see that tired old 360 get transformed!

I put one through a bolt into the front of the drivers side head and the other under the rear-most intake manifold bolt on the passenger side. Pulls it out with the trans hanging down for easy removal

Just bought a 1977 F100 with a 351 Windsor ... Have never worked on an old car before but consider myself decently handy. It runs good but I'm getting some oil leaking when parked. I'd also love to clean up the drivetrain and engine bay to make it look new again. Would I be a fool to pull the thing as my first "major project" on this truck?
@330_garage3

No, you should absolutely pull it. You can make some really good power with the 351. If you brought the compression up a little and put a small cam in it, I think you would be amazed at how much performance you get out of it, and how much more fun it is to drive!! Make a video when you pull it out!

I heard you say in another video your going to eventually do the crown vic front suspension are you going to keep the older carburetor engine in it or are you going to a modern engine. Reason I'm asking cause I didnt know if the new suspension would interfere with the old style motor oil pan.
@330_garage3

I am planning to upgrade to a more modern engine. I haven't looked into putting a big block over the crown vic front end. The crown vic front end is pretty deep, I would imagine it would allow you to put almost anything in there without to much trouble
