    Hello! New member from Idaho.

     



    Hey everybody. Here's a pic of my '53 F-100. I got it about 12 years ago when I was in high school and have worked on it off and on, but finally decided to just finish it up last summer. The tranny is currently out of it getting a rebuild. It is a total frame off rebuild. It has a Currie Ent. prepped and narrowed 9 in rear, TCI 4-bar rear suspension, Volare front clip, Custom Stainless steel gas tank, shaved door handles, custom rear roll pan, Centerline rims..... List goes on.

    Here's a picture of my engine bay. I spent lots of hours on this area last summer. I love my cleaned up firewall with my treadbrite overlay. The engine is a '71 400 Ford (402ci actual) that is bored to 410 ci. It has about 9.5"1 compression, .510, .536 lift, 292 int 302 exh duration SVO cam, Sanderson headers, weiand intake, 1.7 ratio roller rockers, full MSD ignition..... lots of good stuff. Desktop dyno has it at about 350+ HP and 400+ ftlbs of torque.
