Opinions on direction for the new build Empty Opinions on direction for the new build

Post  EVE December 20th 2010, 1:30 am

Well I have a few options here for my new build. I already have the entire engine and a glide. I also already have everything for the turbo setup except for the turbo's, I'm not a newbie to a turbo BBF for those who don't know me. The engine is 9.8 to 1 and I'll change the cam depending on which option I go with.

Now this would go in a street driven truck on 35's that I want to be able to mud drag, sled pull, drag race, and drive to work.

Would you rather have a 532ci with twin 88mm turbo's that would make at least 1500 horse and reliable enough to street drive every once in awhile.

Or a 532ci fuel injected N/A engine that makes 700 horses and is so reliable you would let your wife drive it across the country.

I would go with the 2nd one. Look at Danny's build. I would pm or email him and ask how his works and go from there.

If I go the injected route it will be the new FAST XFI 2.0 with a DIS ignition and a NV 4500 manual tranny. I would love to stick that combo in a early Bronco if I can find one cheap enough.

Looks like option #1 is the winner. Twisted Evil

Picked up a 68 F100 last weekend and it will be 4x4 and running before the snow thaws.
