Nice truck you got there. I am a believer in putting money into the older Fords. I will take anything 1983-2003/7.3. It seems like the new rigs are more trouble than they are worth. I am running a 1991 crew cab 4x4 IDI, with a 5 speed. Most say its too old but it does everything I want of it......especially the starting every morning part. With the ATS turbo, I'm making more power than a stock 7.3 'stroke so I can't complain too much. Good luck, keep the pics coming.
