hey guys
new here. currently driving a 96 f-350 7.3L T with just over 44k yeah 44,200ish to be exact. this truck was bought by my grandfather new in late 95 and has only been used to move equipment and furniture. recently had to start driving this due to my other highly modded car having well lets just say i waisted 7K on a race motor and it blew.
anyways I'm looking to do some mods so far it has some sort of exhaust and had the transmission beefed up by a local truck tuner (this was back in 2002).
the rest of the performance is stock. I'm looking to make a custom 4" Intake I'm not going to be doing a 6637 mod since to be honest I could do much better for about the same amount of money. I've made a few Intakes for friends cars, 07 Chrysler 300c (6.1L), 06 Hyundai Sonata (3.3L), 2005 Kia Sportage (2.7L), 86 Toyota Corolla (2.4L s/c swap), 09 Scion XB, 02 Silverado (5.3).
this will be the biggest intake I've made but it looks like it will be the easiest.
at the same time i will be doing a CCV mod. my budget is $90 for both.
Thanks,
David

I don't know you'll have to call him. I am under the impression it is very reasonable for what you get. Also ceramic coated.

I glanced through the write up looks good, although I would invest in a high quality fine tooth sawzall blade cause if you don't plan on pulling the transmission the original down pipe won't come out in one piece.
the tymar instructions have the cuts for the original in them.
