How we rebuilt a stock Ford 289 V-8 to Shelby GT350-like specs | Redline Rebuilds Explained

Redline Rebuilds Explained is our way of diving into the nitty-gritty of each build and providing some context. Here, Hagerty mechanic extraordinaire Davin Reckow sits down with Hagerty video specialist Ben Woodworth to discuss the ins and outs of our high-performance Ford 289 V-8 rebuild.
