    Anyone have some good places to look for a supercharger for a V10? :love:

    ford f350 v10

    I owned a Chevy Suburban with a 454. My V10 is in a 2001 Excursion that tips the scales at 7,400 lbs. empty... I agree with the above. I drive it because I have three little ones and safety more important than mileage to me when it comes to my family.

    ford f350 v10

    Use the Iridium spark plugs and pay close attention to the torque. The plugs are a 100,000 mile plug, so no need to even touch them again for a long time. I have a K&N air filter installed on my V10. The "Y" pipe is restrictive, so change that out if possible. A tune up and fuel filter are...

    2000 excursion 6.8 V10

    I paid the extra and used Iridium plugs (100,000 mile warranty). Be VERY careful with the torque of the plugs... TOO LOOSE will rattle the plug out and TOO TIGHT will strip the threads of the head. Either way, the outcome will be bad. I have just over 12,000 miles on mine since my tune-up. I...

    6.8L Ford V10

    UPDATE ON TUNE-UP... Changed the plugs and boots during my last trip to Bend. Completed the tune-up there and drove it back here with no issues. So far, I have about 1,200 miles on it after the tune up and everything is going good (still has all 10 plugs in it... LOL). The plugs I removed...

    94 Ford F150 XL

    I had a 1990 F150 4x4 with a 5 speed. Great truck and I actually used it to haul my first IDI home on a trailer with my "300-6". I heard the same thing about it originally being designed as a diesel engine... :dunno

    Removing wing window, frame and all???

    I believe I have a set of wing windows. I have to get up to Bend to pick up the load of parts that I've been trying to get down here to CA, but haven't had the time to make the trip. I'm hoping to go out there this weekend since I have a three day weekend.

    IDI vs powerstroke....need some ammo, please

    I was unemployed in Bend and moved here to California for work. I had the CC setup nicely for OR, but with the lower gears and a C6 it was not the best combination for the CA highways. I thought about swapping a ZF in it to keep the truck, but funds and time didn't permit it so I had to sell...

    IDI vs powerstroke....need some ammo, please

    DOESN'T REALLY HELP AS FOR IDI VS. PSD, BUT MY THOUGHTS ON THE IDI POWERED TRUCKS... I just recently sold my IDI and bought a '01 Excursion (with the V10 gasser). The Excursion is the ONLY "truck" out of the last 5 "trucks" that I've owned that has something other than an IDI between the...

    1985 F350 Crew Cab 4x4 7.3 Diesel

    If I had the extra cash I'd buy it. How many miles are on the engine and how long ago was the 7.3L dropped into it? As for the axle, what's the manufacture date of the truck? Any month after mid year in '85 should have a D60 in the front. I miss mine and I've been looking for another one...

    Dana 60 With 4.10 Gears - $695

    That axle is actually in the Bend, OR CL... Haven't found that many outstanding deals here in California, but not looking very hard either.

    impromptu oregon gtg May 1st

    Happy Belated Birthday. If I was still living in Bend, I would have drove over and at least had a burger and soda with you. Give me a call sometime and if you get down this way, you better call so we can catch up for lunch or dinner. Take it easy and don't work too hard.

    broke the return barb off my fuel tank selector valve...

    I believe I have a fuel selector valve in my spare parts if you still need one. It came off of a '85, but it should still work on yours.

    Anyone Need Some Parts???

    I have the grille, but the badge might be missing. Side view mirrors have been sold some time ago. I have a rear view mirror. I think I have some spare fuel tank sending units, and I don't have a hitch (It was welded to the frame).

    Anyone Need Some Parts???

    The '80-'86 headlights are different than the '87-'91 style. It can be changed out, but not sure it it's worth all the trouble to do it.

    Anyone Need Some Parts???

    I've sent a PM to the first buyer for the IP, but haven't heard anything back... rhkcommander will be next in line, and then chevyboy_0. Anyone need an alternator? I have a v-belt style alternator for $50 as well. I have a stock grille, PS components, wiring harness (6.9 & 7.3 styles)...

    Anyone Need Some Parts???

    IP might already be sold. Not sure of mileage, but was on a running truck when pulled. Since I'm unsure of the mileage, I'm asking $50 for it.

    Anyone Need Some Parts???

    <<<BUMP>>> I'm in Bend right now. Let me know what you need and I can grab it while I'm up here. I didn't make it last weekend due to work, but will be cleaning out the storage unit tomorrow and headed back to California tomorrow evening.
