I think a 12 Valve would be sweet in that old ford! I've just never been a fan of how the 4bt sounds. You really have a cool project going though!

 

Enjoy the updates guys...........

Shock mock-up.....









NEW MOTOR???????

SURE WHY NOT!

Well..... guys I figured the 4BT looked awesome in ford blue and polished up....

(MY 4BT its also for-sale!)


So I figured the 6BT would get the same treatment..... along with some ford red up top to spice it up....

So to no further avail..... enjoy the blue and polish.... 6 covers now instead of 4....

Oh and by the way.....

New transmission comes in next week

Eaton Fuller Roadranger 10 speed transmission...... watch out!

 

well totally changed directions now huh i bet itll still be sweet

 

while you still have the motor out of the truck.... fix the KDP...

grind the plate to a #0, slide the AFC full forward (and the plate) and get a South Bend..

if you can... time it to 15-16.5°...

and you WILL.... LOVE IT !!!

P7100 is AWESOME !

 

Finally realized that if I'm going to use this eventually to haul a gooseneck trailer with the 'next classic car project' I better make it actually be able to haul the trailer......

Enter the 6BT P pump motor and 10 speed eaton fuller transmission.....

As of right now I have heavier running gear now then all of the production pickups as of date...

My 'weak link' is a full floating 10.5" 14 bolt DRW rear end....... and that my friend is saying something.

 

Too bad it isn't the BIG 14bolt, but i think it will hold up just fine... does it have a G80 Grenade unit ???

 

still sweet i wanna do the same thing so bad

 

Whats the 'big' 14 bolt... 11.5" ring gear?

 

the big is a 11,5 ring gear yes...

came in Duramaxes and i've heard it came in some of the older trucks...

 

I should measure.......

This is what the axle was underneath......
