Advice on Carb + Intake Swap for 300 Straight Six
1986F150Six replied to tommyg's topic in Bullnose Enthusiasts Forum
I know you're looking for a different carb and intake, but to answer your vacuum question, I just purchased a cheap YF on Amazon ($69?) and I currently have ONLY the brake booster connected to vacuum. The only other thing I will be connecting is the distributor advance. (I also have my 302 set up this way...brake booster and distributor advance are the only two things I have connected)....well, I guess you can add PCV on both engines. Edit: Just realized after I posted the video that I didn't even have the booster connected in that one lol, but I did connect it shortly afterwards. Welcome to the forum, Tommy! That kit is a lot of $$$! The 4.9L/300 engine is a work horse, not a quarter horse... there are those who [me, for one!] love its unassuming work ethic. It does what it does without complaining, as long as you don't mind a leisurely pace. By the way, just for trivia sake, the 4.9L/300 engine was offered by Ford in trucks only and up to the intermediate duty range [F600]. That is because of its low RPM torque delivery. On the other hand, the 5.0/302 has more horsepower and get up and go at higher RPMs, but was not offered in anything larger than a F250. If emission testing is not an issue, I recommend you replace the carburetor with a pre-emission Carter YF and replace the distributor with a recurved Duraspark. Use Motorcraft sparkplugs specified for FI engines [1987-1996]. What you will end up with is a reliable engine with good efficiency. The EGR tube, which you mentioned, can be removed and the threaded hole in the EGR spacer plugged with a 3/4" piping plug. EGR by itself, is a good thing, but if not functioning can be worked around. In the previous paragraph, it was mentioned that a recurved distributor will be needed... that is because without a functioning EGR system, the ignition timing will be too far advanced under cruise conditions and pinging likely will occur. Good luck with your project! -
Great job!

Recently, a discussion was had which included mention of a 16" wheel on early F100s. I believe the discussion included Jim and Jonathan. https://www.ebay.com/itm/Rare-Early-Bronco-16-Kelsey-Hayes-Accessory-Wheel-1960-s-70-s-Ford-F100-Pickup/203320166492?hash=item2f56d3885c:g:vN4AAOSwd2NgXTe1

I see it's in Canada, so the shipping is cheap for me at least...but the wheel price is way outside of my usual comfort zone lol. Less expensive, but in Indiana: https://www.ebay.com/itm/OEM-Ford-Mustang-Truck-Fairmont-Leather-Sport-Steering-Wheel-1978-1979-Button/143991364213?epid=10034146989&hash=item21868dda75:g:g~oAAOSw1EFgU7gX -
