Pro Touring/Autocross 68 F100
I thought I'd start a new thread on my truck. I completed the HRPT, and done a good bit of autocrossing this year.
This is my first year autocrossing and I absolutely love. I need alot more seat time but I did win 3 place in a autocross in the truck class.
Long story short, my truck handled fairly well with the boxed in chassis, truck arm rear and Crown Victoria front suspension but the geometry is less than desirable.
I talked to Rob at No Limit Engineering and we agreed his chassis will improve the handling greatly plus the body will be alot lower on the chassis.
It should be here next month around Christmas.
The engine is a Department of Boost GT450 supercharged 4.6 3 valve from a 2008 Mustang GT.
I've built a new short block with JE forged pistons, Manley H beam rods and a stock cast crankshaft all balanced.
The cast crankshaft is good for about 750hp.
I'm using all ARP hardware.
Department of Boost is about to send my new supercharger which is a modified TVS Gen2R.
I'll run around 20lbs of boost and estimating 700rwhp.
The transmission, well, that's the weak link. TR3650 that's remote shifted. I was using a Barton shifter that I modified the linkage.
I sold my old chassis to a friend and finished stripping the truck apart today.
Basically this is a new build. Some of you seen it before.
It's going to be better than ever.
