[Palazzolo88]

Beautiful truck. You guys did a hell of a job on it. Kudos!

[bierrum105]

Thats the engine these trucks shouldve had back in the day.

[UmadLoL]

Not a ford guy, but I admit the older ford trucks looks so badass

[dukegawg123]

I Like IT BAD ASS



[359scooter]

front end not 76

[nathanischuck]

@359scooter Nothing on the truck is original except the VIN number plate. It is a 76 but the grill is from a 78'

[73f1004x4]

the 7.3 turbo diesel is really just a 460 with a diesel conversion and a turbo.

[nathanischuck]

@73f1004x4 What are you talking about?

[73ford250]

@73f1004x4 um no a powerstroke is an international 444, a 460 is a much better engine in my opinion.

[Mintfooter]

@73f1004x4 Ur crazy dude, not even close...

[snakebitten97]

@73f1004x4 um?? what exactly is a "diesel conversion" and if its "just a 460" then why does it display 444 cubic inches? you seem confused.

[rd2fst]

@73f1004x4 do your reserch bub. You really sound like an idiot at this point.

[Gunnerotis]

@73f1004x4 you sir fail

[Ragebailey]

@73f1004x4 dude the 7.3 is 445 cubic inches....and a 460 is 7.4 liters

[445kmac]

@73f1004x4 lol i hope your joking or ill tear your mom a new buthole

[fordman2288]

@73f1004x4 Next time you have a thought......Let it go Please and thank you

[flippedmysled]

@73f1004x4 you my friend are an idiot.

[smokeypearl]

@73f1004x4 LOL, you pretty much got raked over the coals for that comment, so i'll keep my comments to myself, except to say everyone is right but you. lol

[paintballer653]

@73f1004x4 dont know what you are smoking but stop it its obviously not good for ya

[bearcoldheart]

@73f1004x4 this comment has earned a spot on the wall of shame

[countryboyredneck16]

@73f1004x4 a diesel is alot heavyer built with alot higher compression, a gas engine would blow to peices on diesel

[61borderpatroljeep]

@73f1004x4 there is nothing similar between a 460 and a pstroke they werent even manufactured by the same company. ford built the 460 and international built the 7.3 off of the old 7.3 idi diesel engine

[trapped45]

Of course I Like it...your truck is gorgeous and was born the same year I was :P

[kdawg33099]

do you know how that powerstroke fits in there if not what did it take

[fullthrottle159]

Yeah...Its a Ford

[CATZR600BRAAAAAP]

im glad you went 7.3, not 6.0... im sure you are too

[strokin2005]

Great truck! I LOVE IT!

[12valvepower1]

that rig is badass

[12valvepower1]

so it is the e250 van motor. interesting. i know our rig has one alternator and two batteries.

i thought most all the later models 7.3l engines had intercoolers. interesting

[nathanischuck]

@12valvepower1 It was a 2002 4x4 quigley conversion E-350 van that rolled and only had 30,000 miles on it. It also has the frame and suspension out of the van. It has two batteries and two alternators.

[browningt93]

@nathanischuck do you know how much diffrence their was in the frames i have been looking into this and have not found alot of info on people that have done it sweet truck

[nathanischuck]

@browningt93 There was quite a difference in the frame in the rear. The old frames curved up, and the new frame is straight all the way back. We just made some tall body mounts to make up for the curve. Also the rear end had to be moved forward.

[Robin8207]

can u say FORD

[12valvepower1]

02 powerstroke 7.3l turbo diesel with the intercooler. our 97 has no intercooler. do you have the auto or nv manual. ours is the e40d 4 speed

[nathanischuck]

@12valvepower1 This doesn't have an intercooler, and it's an automatic. It's an engine from a van with an ambulance package, so it has dual alternators. It also will hit 40psi boost with just the stock turbo and a chip.

[85forddiesel]

is it a powerstroke or a 7.3 idi??? your dad has a badass truck

[nathanischuck]

@85forddiesel It's an 02 powerstroke.

[85forddiesel]

@nathanischuck nice man.... sweet truck

[12valvepower1]

like its nothing

[ABXPONCE]

I own a GMC 3500 TD but this Ford is awesome
