I'm back!

Hey everyone,

It's been almost a year but I'm finally back in a Ford! I had a brief affair with a Toyota 4runner but I'd rather not get into that :o

Bought a 1994 F250 with a 7.3 IDI Great truck, lots of fun, but still not quite like the ol' F150.

Good to see some familiar names, I'll post up some pics as soon as I get the camera up and running

Great to be back

Thanks guys!

Yeah the 4runner was an impulse buy, it was in great condition and I picked it up for $3k. 5 months later I was sick of driving it and needed a truck for hauling and what not. So I polished the ol' turd up and sold it for 4500. Amazing what a little wax and vacuuming can do

Sampson: 22k mod? As the current plan stands I'm going to install a pyrometer, decent exhaust, then turn the injection pump up a bit. No money for a turbo yet, hopefully someday
