    Out of the ashes, a Phoenix is born (Boss 302 teardown and rebuild)

    Well, it took a little bit longer than I had anticipated since I am fighting a bad cold right now but here we stand. I will detail some things tomorrow when I can get some free time but #2 & #3 main bearings are worn down and I think #1 crank journal for the main had some deeper wear...

    Out of the ashes, a Phoenix is born (Boss 302 teardown and rebuild)

    That is a good positive to this, the experience and the learning opportunity is priceless in my opinion. Haha thanks Daev! That may be because I plan to have a 500+ HP car by the time I am done with it. No question is dumb. Yes, the Laguna Secas are covered under warranty and the Track...

    Out of the ashes, a Phoenix is born (Boss 302 teardown and rebuild)

    Today was a productive day all things considering. First I started off with removing the heads. It was a fairly simple process, nothing really all that major to report there. Upon first inspection I didn’t see any signs of a head gasket leak, nor did I see anything that would indicate...

    Out of the ashes, a Phoenix is born (Boss 302 teardown and rebuild)

    At this point it was time to start breaking into the engine and seeing what is going on in there. So I started removing the front cover. I took the RTV off by hand and grabbed the front cover at the top and pulled it off. Off comes the front cover and I started working on removing the timing...

    Out of the ashes, a Phoenix is born (Boss 302 teardown and rebuild)

    Now that the engine was out of the car it was time to bolt it up to the stand. I removed the flywheel, clutch assembly, and pulse ring so that I can bolt it to the engine stand. Upon doing so, I noticed that it looks like I didn’t have the revised o-ring around the crankshaft position sensor...

    Out of the ashes, a Phoenix is born (Boss 302 teardown and rebuild)

    I just want to say that this will probably be a slow teardown and build as I work on the weekends as well and have maybe an hour a day to devote to tearing this down, plus I have to wait to gather funds for the build since this happened at an inopportune time (not that there is ever a great time...

    Aren't you going to have to upgrade the block to do that? Don't these things break at around 400HP?

    I have to agree. I think with some suspension mods and the cooler air 11's are possible. That's pretty crazy to think that we would be closer to the 11's a couple of weeks after they were released to consumers.

    From what I am hearing ti will be revealed at the LA Auto show. I am very anxious to know more about this thing since I have half a mind to sell my car for this. I just hope Ford doesn't pull the usual reveal the car now, wait to publish power numbers 6 months later.
