New Engine....

Fired off the engine I rebuilt with forged rods, head studs and valve springs! It took almost a year but it's running. Now to start over with a HyperMax rodded block.


Only tried out the stockish tune from TDP and it was running smooth. May have a slight boost leak, definitely have an oil leak and a broken bypas nipple on the coolant reservoir.


I do say....only driving it 2 miles stock, I love driving the Ford over CTD common rail dawdge I've been driving. Don't get me wrong....Destroked common rail conversion did cross my mind.
