My good freind Scott brought his 77 F 250 4x4 by my shop (looks bad due to patchwork colored body panel replacement) looking for more power. She's a 4x4, c-6 divorced T-case truck with 4.10's.
I'm thinking a weiand dual plane intake, a holley 600 carb, headman headers with 2 1/2 dual exhaust w/H-pipe and a mild cam with 204 at .050 intake, 214at .050 exhaust 484/510 lift and port match both intake and exhaust.
He's looking for more highway towing power, and the ability to go more than 70 mph top speed. In all fairness his 2bbl carb leaked and had choke issues, had 2" dual exhaust with sharp 90 degree bends in it. Also the vac adv was unhooked and centrifical about locked up so that will be replaced.
Anyway, will these changes give him the extra 60 to 80 hp he wishes or am I headed in the wrong direction?
