My assumption without researching any further is that it doesn't detect enough air flow and simply shuts off. Our new furnace at the old house dynamically increased the speed of the fan based on how restrictive the filter was.

Well the parts should be here anytime for the boat so that is the plan for tonight I guess. Hopefully it all goes well.

Good luck on the boat Troy. Hopefully you can get that installed and still sneak in an outing in the boat.

I've had this idea for years now, but with an early 50s f100 and a 7.3

matter of fact i think i have a couple trucks i should be looking at:

1954 FORD F100

1953 ford f100 pickup

Cool idea. I didsome reading on this a while ago. Would the F100 be stout enough and have enough room for a 7.3? I suppose anything is possible with enough time and parts. Oh yeah ... money too.

I was looking to see if anyone had done a Fox body mustang with a 7.3. Problem with that is the engine weighs as much as the rest of the car.
