i have a 78 f-250 4x4 4 speed with a 351 modified (400 big block with a shorter stroke) open headers and no pipes.. ( = big ticket)
i was a dumb high school and i was out mudding and i skattered my engine, so i rebuilt it myself and put a new crack and piston kit in, new edelebrock cam, roller rockers and lifters, i ported my own heads and put oversized aluminum valves in. in turn when i was done it looked stock from the outside.. with exceptions to my 650 edelbrock 4 barrel carb.
i tore this truck up in high school, and she isnt a head turner, but when i dyno'd my engine it put out 430 hp at the crank. i put it in my truck and i can do a 4 wheel burn out and it will touch 7500 rpms.
but sadly, i parked it and i drive a 2000 ranger right now... im in college and i cant afford the 7 mpg anymore... for now i will be sticking to building my carputer in the ranger and ****ing out my strerio system
