71 F250 4BT

Gents,

 

A few years ago I ... ok a really good friend of mine who is a wizard of a mechanic helped/did a lot of it... we stuffed a 4BT into a 71 Ford.  We ended up doing a lot more then just the engine. 

 

Dana 44 out of a 78 F250 (disk brakes)

Power steering box out of a 78

Power brakes using the chev bread van hydro boost

5 speed from a 90s ford with a mated 205. 

 

About all thats original is the body, frame, and dana 60 rear.  

 

I tried my hand at Youtube and still post videos from time to time.  I think i am up to 8 videos, some of them are probably a little boring.  

 

My future plane is to actually tune the pump to decrease smoke and hopefully increase power.  I am also thinking about flatbed-ing it this winter.

 

Thought I would share.
