Dude your truck rocks. its been a while since i checked out your thread. But man it is looking awesome.

 

it's been a while since I post here.
Well I got the new block, anderson b-41hr camshaft and the rotating assy here's some pics

 

Cant hide money.lol Going to be a lot better now. Good luck.

 

Here's some more pics of my new build



this is before polishing the valve covers

and after but I still gotta polish the alternator. God I hate polishing!!!!!
but that's the price I gotta pay lol


The engine now is pretty much assembled but it's not going into the truck until I decide what power adder I'm going to use I'm thinking twin turbos but I think I'm going to run with some clearance issues with the steering shaft and probably I have to eliminate the fender mud shield or whatever it's called. Or I can go with a procharger but I think it's more expensive than turbos but I don't know If I can retain the march performance brackets.

Does anybody know if I could use a bolt on turbo kit from a mustang with minor modification or hopefully none on the truck?

 

nothing like presents from Scat!

 

Very awesome & jealous. What heads are those?

Keep us updated!

EDIT - Also, what hardware (bolts) are you using?

 

^^^ Heads are trickflow twisted wedge and except for the main caps every stud is
from arp and the heads uses 1/2" studs not 7/16" like a regular 302 block.
And don't worry updates are coming as soon as a get some time off from work!

 

Can't wait to see more of this!

 

HAWT

 

HELL YEAH!!

 

sweet truck dude

 

I have decided to go turbo.
Here's some pics of the long a$$ process that it's taking me.

The turbo it's a precision brand and it's capable of pushing 1200 horses



Here's the turbo header that it still needs some work to be done for the wastegate.



Here's a mock up of how is going to look like.



Sorry for the crappy pics. I took them from my cellphone

 

There is a word I'm trying to think of . . .

Badass is an understatement.

Keep us (mostly for me) updated, I could be following this route shortly.

 

 

no problem dude. Every time i work on the truck or do something to it, i'll post some pics for you and everyone else

 

Thanks man.

What are the specs on the turbo? Expected boost? Expected power? Planned Engine Management? Injectors/intake size? Intercooled?

You're running a 3550 aren't you?

Can't wait to see this thing, these kind of builds are irresistible to me. Good luck!

 

the turbo it's a pt-88 from precision
A/R Ratio
0.96
Inlet/Outlet Size
4"/3"

boost will be from -10psi to break in the engine then from 25 to 30 or more depending if I can handle it or not. engine management don't know yet. injector i got 42 lbs to start then i'll go up when i breakin the motor. intercooler is the going to be a problem for me due to space but I'll figure something out. And I'm running a TKO-500

 

Wow.... I wish I had that engine in my ranger...... Very Nice Project log you got man.
I envy your truck.

 

Sweet. Death on wheels. I like. The engine bay looks like something out of a fox body magazine.

 

Very nice!

 

here's some pics of the intercooler which is treadstone performance tr12 1000hp capable (30x12x4.5)





That's it for now

 

That may be nice, but my truck has 148 horses of furry. LOL

 

today I got a chance to change the water pump due to the fact that im running turbo I need a big flowing pump and also to give me clearance to a thicker fan which means more cfm

 

nice man, where were you able to find a 302? cuz here in colo, the junkyards are crap, and they're far and few between sometimes. did you do any other mods? like valves and rods etc? looks good

 

That looks awesome. Can't wait to see a video of this beast!!
