Weekend project

[forcefed6.4ford]

In not doing dual fuellers this year but I open the truck up every spring. I don't need much more fuel for what I want. It's just to help get the turbos going a little easier, 4:30's will help tremendously. Plus now that I've seen what kind of project it would be to swap tips I can do it on days off easy.

Looking good! Should be a nice setup. And I'm right there with you on being cheap and doing it cab on. I did all of my upgrades cab on as well. So cheers to another cab on mod man:toast:

Turn your phone homie. All your picz are crooked.

 

[forcefed6.4ford]

Damn thing. I took one pic sideways and the other straight up and down.

I looked at the first pic and was thinking wtf is this. now I can see it...looks like you are hammering it out! can't wait to see videos of it done. I wish i had a garage to work on my truck. I have to pay 1000 to my mechanic to lift the cab, and he will do anything to the motor that doesn't require pulling the heads for that same 1000. so turbo's up pipes, manifolds. nozzles. then another 1000 to pull the heads or motor, send them to the machine shop get the checked out. and put stock gaskets back in and stud the heads and install hd push rods, valve springs and ti keepers and retainers. 1000 to fully pull the motor to drop it off at the machine shop to do pistons, rods, balancing. not terrible in my opinion. but enough of me. good luck and take video's and more pictures!

God... I wish. Hell I would pay the to just pull the cab and I would do the rest.

Haha yeah true! But I'm still cheap in American money too! Plus there's no shops within a few hours that I would trust to change my oil let alone any engine parts.

Touche

 

[sootie]

No shops in Canada that wont rape you.

truth.

 

[forcefed6.4ford]

Heads are off. Pistons look good. Good x hatch in the bores that I can see. Now to clean the deck and heads.

 

[Csilva187]

Sweet! I may have over looked but how was all your valve train by chance?

 

[forcefed6.4ford]

Like brand new.

 

[Csilva187]

Knock on wood I lucked out also! Used the money for uppipes etc. Good luck, it's cool seeing other cab on projects.

 

[White_monster]

105k miles on my valve train and they are still original and in perfect shape.

Congrats on the good pistons, heads, and cylanders. Whens the expected start up?
