:D My new project
lol i had to pull the gas tank out, but for never doing it before i did pretty good on pulling it out and putting it back in, it was hard tho. Anyway would you guys put a 4bbl on a 390 or leave the 2bbl on it? its got a 390 with 6 inch lift, 38 inch tires 10.50? its got 4.11 gear in front and back

do you think 2700 is too much for a f-100 in mint shape its engine and tranny have been rebuilt so its at under 100k miles on it?
