I just bought a new truck. Took 3 days vacation first week of March to knock out the 4v swap. Gonna swap it into my New crew cab and then swap my trans over from the scab. I have everything I need minus a few parts that [MENTION=99584]ibd2328[/MENTION] and [MENTION=64669]jferg92[/MENTION] are sending me.

It minimized the downtime. I'll see if i can find a throttle cable for you.
I've left out the most expensive parts for a reason lol. The gauges will be 1/4 of the total swap cost for me.
I also am still going to school until May graduation and living paycheck to paycheck.
I am taking a month off between graduation and moving to my new job to do it. I still plan on installing the pump, controller, and heat exchanger system beforehand.
I got a single Walbro 340- that should suffice for now shouldn't?


Jackedup, you should find a machinist work on the heads a bit

Want to send a S/O to [MENTION=9339]Franchi[/MENTION]motorsports for stocking these. Should look good under my F150 badges right? Doesn't SCT stand for SuperChargedTruck?

Could be a possibility.

What would a ceramic resistor that mounts to the intercooler pump bracket plug into?

It's part of the fuel pump controller system, but leaves out this part in the instructions
