Ford Rules 6.0 build

[ford rules]

That's good to hear!! I think I'll give James a call this week and see what he thinks about the stage 3 with stock injectors.
I think that the 205's and stage 3 would get me my 650 goal pretty easily.

66/73/.91 borg warner and mpd 230/100 7 hole nozzles ordered this morning!!
What size are the factory upipes, I need to order flex joints and stainless tube.

You're gonna need a trans pretty quick. LOL

 

[ford rules]

Lol it's in the plans hopefully it lasts a few months!!
What kind of flex joints should I use for the upipes?

That's going to be a fun truck! Good luck man.

 

[ford rules]

Thanks bud!!

Got my turbo today and my flex couplers and stainless pipes for my upipes.
Im gonna pull the housings off the turbo and measure the wheels to be sure of the size since the guy i ordered through wasnt 100% sure on how to order it since i didnt have a part number or anything.

Got my mock up motor in the barn last night, i built a jig with my downpipe to keep the factory location. Im just waiting on my stainless T4 flange to get here.
I got my injectors from MPD today aswell.

 

[ford rules]

Few pics only had a few hrs to screw around with it so far.
Here's my jig to keep the factory DP location.

And started on a drain flange, I was able to use a hole saw to cut an o-ring groove instead of using a gasket. Just gotta get it trimmed up a lil bit more.

 

[ford rules]

Got the mount and drain just about done today.

 

[ford rules]

Added 2 gussets to the pedestal tonight then started looking at the upipes, turns out the last piece of stainless j bend I got is 2.125" and not 2", gonna have to order a different piece and hope it's actual 2".

 

[ford rules]

Anybody have any input on tig or mig on the upipes, I can mig them myself and get the truck done this weekend probably. Or I would have to find someone to tig them for me.

 

[ford rules]

Got the upipes started yesterday, hoping to have them done today.

 

[ford rules]

Got the old turbo and upipes out and checked fitment of the new ones. Everything looks good so it can all be finish welded.

Even the girlfriend helped she pulled the turbo and upipes just about by herself.

Lol thata boy. Lookin good!

 

[ford rules]

Thanks bud!!
Driver side injectors are done tonight.

 

[ford rules]

Reworked the pass side cac tube so it's full 3" tonight.

 

[ford rules]

Had to remake the mount, the fitting for the drain in the other mount wouldn't stop cracking so I said screw it and made this, just gotta make a drain now.

 

[ford rules]

Got the truck running today, had a cyl 7 contribution code on initial start . Let it idle a few min then shut it off and refired it and it hasn't came back, I hope I don't have to pull it back out.
Hoping to get tunes this week and see how it runs here's some pics from today.
