Dream Truck

[BuckinBronco]

If money, time, and parts were no object, how would you build your truck? If you were given a blank slate, what would you do with it?

Rebuild, re-bore block and heads for 1/2" hardware, heads and block machined for mythical fire rings and fire rings installed. A 4wd conversion, I havn't decided which yet. zf6 (money is no object right?) with brownie 3 speed (ud/direct/od) then divorced transfer case. For the engine, an inline pump off a international 9L. Custom designed boost controller working a parallel pair of VGT turbos (never looked at the type, because I will NEVER have the money for something like that) Fabriate myself an intake manifold. Water/air intercooler, with water/**** injection. Also, depending on if I ever experiment with it, and it actually works... a throttle demand exhost manifold water injection as well (steam to spool the turbo faster on accel) Front bench from a Towncar, a Toyota climate control system. (sorry, but I really hate the ford one I have in my towncar) Rear bench lift, possibly rear bench/bed system. A COMPLEATLY removable 5th wheel hitch, and a pop up goose neck. Epump system (that I still havn't decided on) Custom built LED euro compliant headlights. (ish building a set for my supra, why not use them on the truck too?) 6k winch in front, and 8K in back.

That's all I can think of right now.

If I could only do 1. bricknose crew cab dually with super singles, 97 6.9 with cam, studs, valve springs, coated pistons, RD4 180cc pump, A3K turbo, intercooler, road ranger 10speed, divorced t-case, 10.25 with ARB locker, Dana 60 with ARB locker, on board air, 4linked and bagged rear end with auto height adjuster and dump valve, water/**** injection, strobes out the waazoo (thats the short list)

BONE STOCK 91 F-350 CCSRW repair or restore paint, seats, radio, and all, to factory original then swap in a ZF-6 with an over/under Add pto or belt driven hyd. pump with a dump bed kit. Add exhaust brakes and a banks turbo drop down 5 wheel or bed ball and thats it I guess, I'm a fan of bone stock trucks restored to as much like their showroom sales days.

 

[opusd2]

I want something that runs and doesn't look like it rolled end for end down Pike's Peak

 

[mohavewolfpup]

I'd pretty much keep mine bone stock and rebuild it bumper to bumper with all the known fixes. Maybe play around with a slightly more powerful turbo.

 

[towcat]

i like what i've done with the Nostromo and the Sulaco. the specs are down on my sig line. if I was to redo something it would prolly be a cab in better condition.
