XFH00N 37 Posted October 7, 2016 Well last year in December i got a F100 without motor or box for free so that became my newest project. It has a 3.50:1 lsd 9in in it and i am building up a 250xflow with a blow thru carby and a turbo which will be backed up with a T5. Well here are some pics of the work done so far. When I got it Stripping Tray I picked up cheap The damage The fun As it sits the bottom end of the motor is nearly ready to go in with the gearbox. Cab has been stripped and is ready for paint doors and guards are stripped, rust free and in primer and tray is 95%repaired just need to weld it out. Have also done a diff flip and painted the enginebay and chassis 6 Valvebouncer, 2redrovers, SLO247 and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
