my engine is '72 mexico block 302 with solid, flat tappet cam and roller while its a very well built engine, on a whim, had a run of the mill roller cam 302 machined up to build a 347 by fordstrokers

Not sure what you mean by "ruin the sound". The hydraulic roller components are mechanically more quite than the flat tappet version, so you won't hear the "rain on the tin roof" so much...But the e

Owain, Your new engine will sound different for several reasons. The old 302 had the 260/289 firing order, the 5.0 engines (roller cam) switched to the 351 firing order. If you listen to a modern Mus

I do not plan on turning my 347 past 6200. SCAT told me that the crank is good for 7K. I love the sound my 260 makes with 1 3/4" pipes. I am sure that will pale in comparison to the 347 roller engin

I have noticed that the old flat tappet motors (especially with a few mods) have a much harder more intense sound as they rev. They get a more metalic scream if thats a fair description. The modern f

A few mechanical differences for sure. Solid lifter flat tappet cams have a "clackety" sound associated with there design. Also, the new roller cams use the HO firing order which is "smoother" and su
