Saying Hello!
I figure this is as good of a place as any to drop a quick note! I'm Nate; on my second IDI now with a 1983 F250 with the 6.9 in it. I had an older 7.3 for a hot minute but sold the truck well before I moved to Georgia from Colorado many many many moons ago! I just picked up this old girl, she's got some issues (mainly rust and non working gauges at the moment) but sits pretty on 37x12.50 shoes with the manual transmission!
Been checking this forum out for ages, lots of good info and I'm looking forward to posting the knowledge I have of this block as I tear into mine and clean it up! And yes, those ugly home made stacks are gonna go buhbye!!

Gauges dont work AT ALL - It has no speedometer, gauge cluster shows 156K so who knows what it actually has...
Missing the front gas tank
There is a rats nest of wires under the dash that looks like a 2 year old playing with spaghetti noodles
The A/C system is totally disconnected and I will likely remove it since if I want an "Air Conditioned Ride" I'll take my
Goldwing (1987 with 75K original miles)
and a few other little things...Nothing serious as it runs and drives! Just needs a little TLC, and a new hood ha!
