CRATE ENGINES - Ford Power Shop

1 ENGINESCRATE engine DEVELOPMENT PROCESSAll great CRATE ENGINES start as an idea. Theengineer begins with a horsepower target and theengine family for hitting that target. Then, theengineer documents the components that willlikely achieve targeted horsepower and meetdurability requirements. This procedure is basedon years of experience in the high-performanceengine building business. Many formulas alsosupport this process. Next, the engineer has oneor more development ENGINES built and sent to theengine dynamometer lab for break-in and dyno-testing, fuel distribution, best camtiming, and best ignition timing for maximizinghorsepower and torque is assessed. If targetperformance numbers are not met or can beimproved changes are made , different carburetors, camshafts,intake manifolds and cylinder heads are target numbers are reached, the engine isrun for durability.

2 Durability testing is based on themarket application of the engine . Various durabilitytests may be run sometimes as severe as 50hours at wide open throttle, full Power . Others maybe cycling tests where the engine acceleratesfrom peak torque to peak Power , then deceleratesback to peak torque, then repeats the cycle formany hours. The tests selected vary depending onthe market application. Upon successfulcompletion of durability testing, the enginepackage is released for ENGINEPART NUMBERM-6007-XE3MM-6007-XB3MM-6007-Z50EM -6007-Z50ZM-6007-C347M-6007-Z351 Displacement302302302302347351 Horsepower340345360390450410 Torque310 :1 HeadsX303 GT-40X303 GT-40Z304A High FlowZ304A High FlowZ304A High FlowZ304A High FlowCamshaftE303 Hyd.
