If you got one I'd like to see it. I love this body style and want to see some pics if anybody has one. Thanks

 

What do you mean by hot rod? My bronco is fast, and has a 460 and a bunch of performance parts. Someone else on here has a lowered one with a flamed paint job.

 

Here you go. Watch this "Hot Rod" Bullnose STOMP a Doge Ram Hemi:

 

That was awesome...I'm glad to see those so called big bad hemi s get beat lol I'm a Ford man all the way but I do respect a dodge...they built some bad cars back in the day

 

That little 302 with stock E7 heads really wound up TIGHT to beat that big bad Hemi!

 

Ford circled the solution lol I even converted my ol lady who was a dodge fan lol she has finally seen the light lol

 

I wouldn't say stomp. The semi(as much of a joke as they are) weights a good 1500lbs more than the ford. That is HUGE

 

Oh yeah? And how much bigger is the Hemi engine compared to the little 302?

That Ford beat the Dodge by AT LEAST A FULL car length (or two)! What would you call that?

 

Let me put 1000lbs in the bed of the ford and see who wins O wait and put some 4.56 in the dodge

 

The so-called "hemi" isn't actually a true hemi, in fact, it's just a marketing gimmick by dodge to get the old fan boys into dealerships.

The combustion chambers aren't really hemi-spherical like they used to be in the late 50's through the mid-60's.

Plus in this case, the Dodge outweighs the Ford by .7 of a liter, which is a decent enough size, but Brad is right, that Ram is probably 1500-1700 lbs heavier than the Ford, and is probably running stock gears which would be what....3.23's, 3.55's or maybe 3.91's at most?

Plus, we're all missing one glaring problem with that video...they're street racing in the middle of a busy road. What a bunch of idiots! You want to race your trucks?? Either A. take them off road and do it there, or B. take it to a track. A whole myriad of things could go wrong here. No respect for other people, just to settle some grudge you have against some other guy with a truck?? The epitome of stupidity right there.

 

And.. to get back on the OP's topic...

I don't have one but I'm making one..

 

What does it take to get into this club? Does 1/2" more stroke, TFS heads with 10.5:1 CR, full roller valve train w/a custom cam grind, shot-peened rods, ARP fasteners, and a 750 CFM Street Demon qualify?

 

I have a 460/C6 swapped into a 82 F100 shortbed. It rides lower than stock and is plenty fast. Unfortunately, it is just in black primer so far and the interior still needs completed, so pictures are not all that appealing.

 

That qualifies to me! Show your truck Gary!

 

That's kinda difficult as I think there is a limit of how many pictures you can put in one post. As the sig says, the truck is down for a "resto-mod" - "resto" since the bodywork is being restored to its former glory, and "mod" since there are a few changes, like a small tweak or two to the engine , a ZF5 tranny, Bronco buckets and console, upgraded electrical system, etc.

Here's a pic of the cab from a couple of weeks ago:




And here's a shot of a mock-up of the engine showing the heads, aluminum intake (Eddy shown), 4bbl carb (Eddy shown), Flow Kooler aluminum waterpump, tall valve covers to clear the Scorpion roller rockers, and the to-be dual-snorkel air cleaner, which will be plumbed to the core support for cold air.
