Hello F150 fans

I have a F-150 1995 XL extended cab 8 ft box 4.9 liter engine. I would like to be able to run it on a drag strip one day. Lots of work ahead.

There is alot of performance parts for the -6. Headers, heads, cams, just how much you want to spend. There are -6 motors with more power than a mid size v8, just have to research and see what you can do. I found a couple of trucks with -6 engines when I was buying one but I am a Big Block guy. But due to our honest faithful government who isnt robbing tax payers blind and keeping gas prices below $2.00 I am sticking with my 302.
