Hey ford owners. I am Ethan. My daily driver is a 1977 f150 with a 300 i6 single barrel carb. My truck is a three speed collumn shift. I need some tips to get my gal up to par with yours! After months of Fix or Repare Daily i consider my truck to be "reliable". The only upgrade I have done is installing a cherry bomb glasspack, which i love. I would really like to add some more affordable upgrades. Please give some feedback. Thanks!
Welcome to FTE... Post some pictures when you can.
Plenty to do to upgrade it. Got the tune up items for t yet? New wires,plugs, air and fuel filter, rotor button and cap?
Idk how much, but they sell a cute little header to put on that strait 6. Only one so half price right?
