I'm from Deloraine, MB, but going to school in Brandon. 21, single, drive a 94 f-150 ext. cab stepside 4x4, look in gallery if you feel like it. Anyone in SW MB might have seen my truck, it kinda sticks out. In the future I hope to put a beefy 302 into a Ranger. Maybe start this summer if I can sell my motorcycle. Anyone around here has probly seen one of my dad's trucks: either an 04 Yellow FX4, 86 Ranger Turbo Diesel Dually, or a 1965 Mercury Econoline pickup. It's in my gallery as well.

FoMoKo1, sorry I didn't reply earlier. Lots to do, not enough time. As to that Merc, my wife set up a private website last week and she put the truck on there. I tried to rut the web address on, but FTE said no. email me at lzycreek@mts.net if you're interested.
I'm just hoping to get the $700 back that I spent. Actually, I'd like to keep the truck, but I switched from wood heat to coal and don't need the hoist. I already have a work truck (sorry, not Ford) and that's just too many toys.

- a coolant leak that has been hard to detect
- the possibility of leaking headgaskets due to a poor design
- coolant puking out the overflow bottle due to over-expansion of coolant (nobody is sure if its head gasket related or maybe caused by excessive heat produced by the EGR)
If you are interested come to one of our meetings, next one will be later this month in Saskatoon.

Hey Fomoko1,
My mustang has a 393 stroker in it, works out to 6.4L
IT usually raises a few questions when I mention it, it is a blast, I am just finanlizing some carb tuning on it and it will be out as soon as its dry 
I will deffinitly be able to make some of the meetings! The draggons show would be awesome to go to, what about having the meeting on the same weekend?
