I'm pretty happy with the numbers and am one step closer to having the truck I've always wanted.</O

I think these numbers sound about right for a 1954 F-100. Don't you?</O

What preventive measures have you done to your frame/truck to keep from breaking stuff?

Awesome numbers!

That'll have some passing power, but I shudder to think of how much gas it will suck down

While the old frame was in good shape, I decided to upgrade to a Chris Alston Chassisworks frame and suspension, with a custom 9" rear end and air bags. It's an IFS up front and a four bar in back. Wilwood 4 piston brakes front and rear, with cross-drilled and slotted 13" rotors.

The transmission is a TKO 600, with a .82 fifth.

I'm with Dick...for the same amount of money you put in your motor, you coulda had a 100 HP flathead V8. Sucker

Seriously...impressive numbers. Be sure to wake the neighbors a couple of times before you put exhaust on it.

I have a better solution on the exhaust. I'm putting on an exhaust gate that will allow me to run straight pipes at the flip of a switch (actually I'm trying to configure it for the choke **** to "hide" it) so I can be real annoying

, I mean give me that extra HP if I ever take it to the track.

My neighbors are going to love me.
