The Torque Monster 300( grew 51 cubic inches) 351
I've been a new member for a while know. now that my trucks all in one piece again I figured it's time to start a build thread. It's a 1990 f150 4x4 with a 300 l6 and 5 speed. I recently repainted it over the summer

Sounds like a good plan! If the 360 in my highboy heads to Valhalla, I am going to swap in a hot 300 in.

Because I went true duals had to remove the cats but everything else is there. Smells no worse then a ford with cats of that vintage. Yes has m5r2. The filters made the engine bay look so much cleaner

I hold the 300 in very high regard. I doubt I can wear out the 360, but I would like to do the swap some time.

Also, I really dig that color. Filling trim holes is a pain, ain't it?
