Looks great, just trolling getting ideas as I move forward on a similiar project. Liked the turbo set up...may give that a go. Rims look very good on these particular models of f100s.

Thanks Glenn,

Getting started pulling out the 4.6. Looking to sell the Complete Engine Harness front to back with the P71 ecu $300. Includes the main engine harness,front engine bay harness, interior section harness, rear section harness that runs fuel pump ect. Basically plug and play to make your vic chassis run.





LS Turbo headers came in, also picked up a pair of Holset HE341's.

Been a busy summer, haven't worked on the truck till last weekend. Brought the motor home, just about have it wired up. Ordered hp tuners pro, and a set of 80 lb injectors, should all be here in a week or so.

Sounds interesting Jeff, may just look into that.


Engine mounts are done, have trans crossmember to make, then will build a new core support to hang the turbos off of.

Yeah, considering i had to do it twice since it was my first time ever painting a car. I rushed it and plus doing it in a 9 ft wide car port made it really rough. I was really happy with it though and i actually have to do it again since ive since scuffed it up a bunch and put nicks in it fixing stuff i should of done first lol

It also really easy to do. I used a small air compressor with a cheap 1.4 tip gun that matched my compressor. It flattens out as it dries and just looks great. That muscle car feel

Started on the core support, the front section will be bolt on to make it easier to work on. Fitted the Passenger side hot side. Still waiting on the shipment with the drivers side parts to come in.



Turbo has about 3/4" hood clearance, also fitted the 44mm waste gate. The waste gate will be external dump just behind the front tire.
