429 vs 5.3 vortech ?????
A friend of mine is putting a 73 429 in his full weight 69 f100. The 429 has the stock intake and 4 bbl and the D3VE-A2A. What kind of horsepower should this thing make, what kinds of realistic 1/8 mile #s should he look for. Stock c-6 and stock rear gears are around 3:13.
When I sold him the truck it had the stock 360 and it was a dog.
We are going to set up a little "fun" race against my 99 Serria 5.3.
He has been really laying the smack talk down thick. And I just wanted to do my homework to see if I might want to take the kit off my car for a night.
This is a good friend of mine so all in all it is just for fun.
Looks Factory!!
