sweet dude!

 

07harleyf150, those running boards you metioned, are they the power retractable ones by AMP Research? How do you like them? Did you install them yourself? If so was it Difficult? Where did you get them?

I pick up my 07 Harley next Friday and want to put running boards on it to make it easier to get in and out of, but don't like the looks of running boards.

Thanks

yes they are the retractable ones by amp research. no i didnt install them myself. i bought them from citrus motors in ontario california. i bet you could get them at any ford dealer around you.

 

here's a pic of my '02 i bought in Jan. of '07. only 30k miles and in excellent condition


i installed a ported upper manifold, SBTB and AF1 intake. now it whistles when i gun it

 

zombie more pics, and bigger ones

 

hahaha okay here's another one...



& a wider shot of the engine bay:



i had an unholy time getting the AF1 installed...VERY tight fit since the temp probe that goes into the air filter prevents the venturi adapter from sitting flush. i had to use brute force to get it all to line up. you can see in this shot too i recently added an L&S oil sep kit. new upper pulley going on next and some other goodies

 

Nice, that intake is huge!

 

yes, it is quite endowed isn't it...

i don't know about you guys but i haven't stopped smiling since i bought this thing...sooooo fun to drive. plus i'm just stoked i finally have a vehicle that can smoke the tires when you flick the throttle. no more slow a$$ 4.6L hooray!

 

Ye I love the Gen II harley trucks!, Id love to hear that thing take off with that blower and intake it, sure it sounds sweet man. Wonder if my truck could keep up with yours if i got a blower.

 

well if you got the AWD and 4v engine in your truck that's a nice advantage...i only have the 2v motor but i think i may be a little lighter so it would be a good race! unless i swap out the stock blower for a 2.6L KB kit ...

the sound of the intake, blower & exhaust working in harmony is music to my ears when i accelerate...i can't imagine what other drivers are thinking when they hear me take off. it takes pretty much all my will power not to roast my tires at every intersection i'll try to get some video up one of these days...

 

I believe they have the same 3v 5.4 in them the reg f150s have

but yes true AWD

 

Cant agree with you more, I love the sounds of the blower alone and I wanna hear it with that intake!!!! Video would be awsome man. Ye you are a little lighter. I saw a video online of a guy with a harley truck that had the KB or maybee even whipple install on his 03. It sounded like nothing ive ever heard before. simply sweet.

PATMAN-ye you are right I do only have the 3v. I Wish I had the 4v....Just like the Stangcobra.

 

doh i be huffing paint...i forgot the late model f-150's have the 3v! i keep thinking about mad's truck with the 4v Navi engine haha i don't know much about these new trucks but my bro has a '06 FX4 with AWD and it's very nice. no match for my antiquated 2v engine though when it comes to pure acceleration

yeah the KB blowers sound very aggressive...i heard the Whipples are a little more stealth like. i don't mind the whine that the stock blower makes...it gets a little loud when you mash it but considering this isn't an electric car i am okay with my engine being a little on the obnoxious side

 

some new photo's of the '03





my wife had the sticker custom made out of stainless to match the truck



now maybe some engine chrome but I dunno, what do you guys think???????
