Jim, I saw one of these International 4700s the other day. They have a Low-Profile cab and a corresponding badge. The badge made me think of your truck:

I'll tell yaa Jim, it wasn't that long ago you joined us here at FTE and by far, been the busiest on building your dream truck, kudos to you for bringing one of the first lowered F-250's that (I've) ever seen to the spotlight, good deal..

Still running the ddx 512 and loving it. First headunit was a kenwood kdx918 that was in my scion when totalled. Second was the ddx 512 I got from best buy. The third is another ddx 512 because a crazy chick at a party smashed the screen on other one .

Looks good. It's cool to see the progress pics. I wish I had taken more of those but I haven't done real drastic changes like you have.

Hell Jim. You are asking me something that happened before yesterday, and I even rode with you the whole time I was at Pete's shop. . If I had to guess, I would say no, it didn't have the '08 bed.

Thank you and welcome to fte and you will soon learn there are no stupid questions here. A van turbo has a bigger exhaust housing so it flows more air. The benifits of more are is a more complete burn with added fuel and lower egts. The con is it takes a little longer to spool up on stock tunes.
