Default Slide Over Guys, There's One More Joining The Club.

Hello Everyone,

I found this site last night and joined it almost immediatly. I am new here and new to Ford PSD's in general. My step dad passed away recently and left me his 96 F350 4x4. I cleaned it up and I am going to keep it. The miles are kind of high, 228,000+ and it needs new shocks and a little front end work as the right front tire wears funny, but all in all it seems to be a solid platform for me to work with.

I plan to use it to haul my MV Agusta Brutale 910R to the track on track days.

I noticed the truck has no Boost Gauge or Intercooler, is that for Emissions reasons? What type of Boost do these things put out? I guess around 15 psi, is that close?

I looked at some threads last night, and a lot of you guys have some sweet set ups. I can only dream of my truck being ten percent as nice as the ones I see here.

Anyway, like you all know, I am new here and I hope to learn about my truck from this site, and maybe contribute something too. Give me time though, I have virtually no knowledge of my truck yet except I know the clutch, flywheel and some sort of magnetic sensor have been replaced.

If you all don't mind another member,I am from California, then I'd be pleased to stay around and learn from everyone.
