ok im starting a project next yeah and im going to have a early 90's crew cab dually
my plan is to have a really nice show truck but also have no problem pulling things like it is build for and i want to go fast
i want a clean engine bay to less is the best
but i want to put maybe a newer motor in it
but idk which way to go gas or diesel
im not going to be doing a lot of towing and no hauling cause i really want have a bed that much
and i want it to go fast to but
which way should i go and what engines would yall suggest thanks

 

If you want to go fast sell the crew cab dually and get a reg cab short bed F150. The big trucks can get up and go decently, but it's not going to be fast relative to other vehicles on the road.

How much and how often do you want to haul stuff anyway?

 

i have a reg cab swb 2wd its no show truck...by far but it'll get up and go in a hurryand really,paint, some long hours cleaning and a good chunk of cash and she could be a show truck

 

lol i know its not going to go fast fast wasn't planning on it beating everything on the road and changing the crew cab dually isn't an option i love the look of a crew cab dually the way im going with it. i haven't got the vehicle yet but next year i will

i want something that can make the truck accelerate fast and still be able to pull a trailer

im not planning on pulling much but if i have to i will and prove to everyone out there who thinks im killing the trucks reason for being a dually that it can still do everything it was made to do but look clean and sweet lol

 

right now i have a 94 ford f150 extended cab 4x4 and she is 21 and 1 right now she will get going no problem and for the most i know about it it is all stock with a 5.8L Windsor in it
there is a chance something has been done with it, it was an undercover cop car some how with the bright aqua pearl paint color ford did lol hate to be the guy that got pulled over twice by it ha

 

so anyone have any motors in mind
or even help me limit in a gas or diesel

 

well the 460 was stock in a good bit of the 250/350's if im not wrong, someone correct me if i am..
and you want a peppy motor and from what i've heard on here the early diesel's had NO pep at all, agin some one correct me if im wrong...

 

Diesel Brad can chime in on this one. He has a crewcab 4x4 with a supercharged 460 (7.5L) gas engine. He recently posted a "kill" he had against a PSD equipped truck. If Boport ever gets back to us on his head port results on his 460 then we have more ammunition to use. The flow numbers Bo' posted of before and after show the EFI 460 heads can be changed from a sow's ear into a silk purse. A set of ported 460 heads, vortech 'charger, a decent cam....woohoo!
