We’re turning our 1964 Ford Flatbed into a shop truck! With the help of the team in Engine Power, the guys make an engine swap that includes a turbo! Plus we’re off to the junkyard in search of a transmission. Plus, we plumb the turbocharger in our 1964 Ford Flatbed truck and install the fuel and cooling systems.

@stephengibson2869 4 месяца назад

I like that you have given a refreshing boost to this older truck.I prefer older trucks compared to the trucks of today.. Easier and more basic and no costly computers and the like to make a mess of everything. I saw your posting of this Ford and I have seen an older mid 50s GMC/CHEVY 2WD flatbed for sale. And like your Ford is white with patina, this truck is also white with patina. It's sitting next to a barn on the gravel. It's too far away from the road to see close enough to tell if it's a GMC or a CHEVY . My Dad used to have a 57 GMC 1 ton with a long narrow box with 1 headlight per side. The truck for sale has 2 headlights per side. The truck looks pretty good. I like the old trucks, and you folks are having fun with your flatbed Ford 🙂. Take care. 👍

@jzz20highwaydancer Год назад

If those 300's have strong conrods a smaller turbo would make that much nicer to drive. 3582 is the early Barra factory size. The extra liter of displacement might make up for the vvt and modern head design.

@Garrett_Thompson Год назад

A T56 would really make this thing shine. And definitely an LSD or a locker and a set of gears. And a 4 corner disc upgrade. This thing is gonna to sick burnouts when it's fully done.

I had a 250. Radial tires eliminated the need for power steering. Rebuilt the brakes and lost the eesire for disc brakes. The steering box is adjustable. You can adjust the play out of the steering.

you guys are right on about the old Ford straight sixes one hell of a good motor in the early 1980s one of my best freinds asked me to help him get his 68 Mustang running so he could get it out of his Parents garage and over to his home that Car was restored by his Grandfather at a Service Station he had for many years the Grandfather used a Ford Truck straight 6 with a 3 Speed manual tranny he put a Floor Shifter on i pulled the Carb and Fuel Pump Cleaned them and blew the fuel lines out with a bike Pump and had the Car running in under a hour BTW that was a running when Parked that sat for 10 years because the Car needed tires i took it on a small cruise ! Of Course and i have no idea what gears were in the rear but it would Squeel the tires in first and chirp them at second not like the 289 Mustangs would but it was a tourqey engine with the old Truck you guys have if you were going to haulLoads or pull things you could upgrade those Drums with Wilwood Discs on the front and a better Master Cylinder for that motor set up then if you guys came accross a V8 for the right price you could have a vehicle already set up for something bigger and more powerfull

To be honest with you. Keep the Maury County on the side, tribute. Power Nation is advertised as clean and professional. Therefore the shop truck needs proper apparel. Clean and neat. Keep the 6 cyl or go with an 8 cyl. All original. Polished and painted. ❤ Be a beautiful truck. That's American. 🇺🇸.
