Talking Introduce Myself

I am really just trying to get my initial 15 posts out of the way. I live in the Pensacola area of Florida. I have a 1974 Ford F-100 and it has been dropped about 4" in the front and probably about 6" in the rear. The rear end has been spooled and bagged. It also has a ladder system in the rear end. The motor has been gone thru and bored out to a 396 top end has been ported and polished and the bottom end has been balanced. I have already had questions for you guys and you have been great. Thanks. I bought the truck my senior year in High School in 95. Sold the truck to me dad when I joined the military to my dad in 97. Dad has done all of the upgrades to the suspension and a few to the motor. Sorry it is so long, I am just excited and thanks for listening.

Nolan

Welcome! I also have a 74 f100 (I know, the name gives it away). Mine isn't lowered, thought about that for the futur. Would love to see some pics of yours, I have a couple in my gallery.

Take care,
Jim

What have you done to those heads?
What kind of cam are you running?
Compression?
Exhaust?
Enquiring minds want to know!
