Flowmaster is sick, its a dual in dual out, LT,s true dual y/h pipe. If you want a sound pic PM me. MSD works great. I got it used. Gave it a bit more pep, smoother idle also.

This is what a 20 year old, low mileage (32,000 miles) 460 that has not been detailed looks like.

Very interesting setup. How about some more technical details?

I will try and remember what all it has done to it. It has been a while since I built it so somethings might slip my mind.

It is a 351w of course with fairly low compression 8:1, I polished the head ports, exhaust and intake myself,gasket matched both intake and head ,and then smoothed the exhaust ports to like glass finish.
Homemade headers with a crossover pipe across the back going into a log style drivers side manifold. Running 12 lbs of boost on 93 octane with the turbo that is on there. I have the internal wastegate set at 12 psi and then an external wastegate mounted in the crossover pipe set to 15psi for saftey reasons. (first engine blew due to a wastegate malfunction resulting in pegging a 30 psi boost gauge, so I am not sure how much boost it was actually making when it crapped out, it wasn't a pretty sound though)

60lb fuel injectors, Spearco 3in and 3in out intercooler, 4" inch exhaust, cannot remember the specs on the cam. AEM wide band O2, Ford motor sports boost, oil pressure and oil temp gauge. Remote mount oil filter and oil cooler pre-turbo, Walbro 255's intanks, Twin Horn very loud blow off valve mounted behind the grill.

Everything is tuned by a megasquirt II and my laptop through use of the Wideband O2.

That is all I can remember as of right now, but I will probably think of more stuff later. I had to make everything myself so it took a little while to do.

It is a gas guzzling, tire burning machine but is not really feasible as a truck, which is why I am taking this engine out and going to a diesel conversion.

Did you get the recall done? I don't see the blue tag on the connector at the master cylinder. I don't want to see any more trucks burn.

Whats the part 87 part 96 truck? Is it and 87 with 96 front clip?

Yeah it has been done. I wondered if somebody would catch that...That pic is from 2005. Other than the recall and a new Motorcraft battery it still looks the same now though.

I meant that part of the second truck goes in this forum. A lot under the hood is 1988; the rest of the truck is 1979.

It belonged to a friend of mines parents. They bought it new in hopes of 5th wheeling around the country and then his mother/father ended up having health issues and were never able to use it. I paid too much for it ($5000) but I knew it's history (the owner owned a service station so it was well cared for along with the low miles). Most of the miles were put on in the first five years and then it got less than a 1000 miles a year after that.
