yah the 5.4 3v i ran was a screw, and had half of the interior in it, and had very similar mods to what i have (intake exaust) and i had both my tool boxes, and a full tank of gas, but yah.....

I want to find a NBS stock 5.4, NBS 4.6 stock or similar mods, 97-03 5.4 stock or slightly mod. And see how i do... Dont really care about body configuration on the NBS, but the 2v 5.4 id like to be an ext cab

Could be something like that. One of the reasons that I sorta wanted to stay with a pre 04 model was to stay away from the computer running friggin everything, oh well though.

Id think you would take a 4.6 in a new style pretty easily...These bishes wiegh a crap-ton. This new reg. cab seems even bulkier and heavier than my old ext. cab. You probably dont wiegh a whole lot more than one, plus you have the power advantage over them...



I'll help yuh guys out - I 'll race the both of yuh's , same time - I'll take the middle slot and whip it around @ the finish line real quick to see which one of you two comes in second..

Then we'll go have a few of these and I'll splain why mine's so frickin fast..

why does having a lowered truck make me less of a man? I think its better then driving a bone stock (engine/drive train) truck and complaining about it every possible chance

Sounds nice


Come up to NE and run my buddys truck 2000 5.4 ext cab 4x4. He bought it and it already hauled. All we've found in it is a chip, with no name on it. Its the mystery truck...it hauls ***** and we dont know a thing about it Smoked my buddies truck, which is pretty much the same thing, except it has an intake and has been tuned by Troyer.
Besides the point anyway.

Are you tuned Patrick?

Let's race at night, then I can blind you 3 with my highs and when you go flying off the road, I'll cross the finish first.

Ehhh i already need to do an oil change, i doubt driving 2,000 miles round trip would really help things out...

And no tuner yet. Im dreaming about the edge, among a ton of other things on my wish list
