First I like the look of your truck, tis sharp, and not over done. The stacks clearly are a personal choice on your part and not everyone agrees, which is ok as stacks are not for everyone, myself included. That however does not take away from the work and time you have put into the ride.
Again I like what I see!
If you are not looking for insane power moose it and be done. The db4 88 ford is speaking of is an experimental project by some guys on another site. Afaik So far it seems to be doing allright with a few minor setbacks early on. But it has not been proven long term.
Not that I am trying to knock them I applaud them for pushing boundaries but I would not do the experimental type stuff they are doing.
I love how guys go around toting horsepower marks that have been achieved by a few just by using the same pump as they are. There is a whole lot more than that to the power they are making.
This is an extremely good point, touting and spouting big HP is cheap talk. If you want to tout bug numbers add in a line like the DB4 hybrid has been proven to make HP up to *** and torque of ***, though this was with a special custom build on the engine and turbo setup, custom intake and exhaust manifolds cams and so forth! Just putting BIG numbers out there is plain ridiculous at best.
MY GOD MAN....USE YER HEAD FOR MORE THAN HOLDING YER EARS APART....
stop the touting huge HP it's just wrong.
Also I am not trying to detract from the OUTSIDE the box approach of the individuals or take away from their hard work. I am however trying to say that without the supporting mods that pump would likely not be pleasant for all to use.
88 Ford, if you like that pump so much just buy one n stick it on your truck and claim you make 300+ HP don't waste time with building your engine with studs and cam and so forth, just stick it in and claim big numbers. OR BUILD n PROVE it!
All in all Pedro wants a good decent runner, then get a decent replacement pump, Moose, or ask the fellows at PSN or FTE if they do indeed handle slightly hotter DB2's who knows. I cannot speak to that as I didn't ask. Heck even a NEW pump that doesnt leak would be nice I'm sure.
again, Nice truck and good luck with your setup.
