Hi there gear grinder and welcome to FTE. Sounds like you have some ideas in mind for your F100, good to see. Lots of knowledgeable folks here who are always willing to help with a problem or a question a fellow Ford owners may be having.

Hope you enjoy your time here at FTE and good luck on your project!
