I WANT A 408. Great build man glad to see you got it tuned

 

so how long did it take you to do your 408 project and roughly what was a price on something like that

 

bought the truck in may I believe and I will have to tally up the cost of the motor alone but every reciept I have including the cost of the truck comes out to 12,000

 

NICE!!! I'm one of the many followers of your build thread(s) and I'm happy to see you can finally enjoy what you've worked so hard to accomplish. Great job, and I thank you for posting as you've done throughout this build. I'll be using it as a primary source of reference for when I get to work on mine, but unfortunately that may not be for a little while though.

 

Thanks man I will be happy to give my input when I can. I am sometimes slow to reply tho.

 

Nice truck man sounds sweet and light them up nicely.

I have a quick question for you. I just finished paying off my truck (98 1500 v6 5spd) and im looking to build a new motor. What i am wondering is in the case of your 408 do you still have the motor hooked all through the ecu? is it still fuel injected? or have you trashed the ecu and fuel injection and gone for a carburetor set up.

 

makes me want a 408 to turn my 40's once i get them, right now the stock 318 dont turn the 37's very easy, even with the 4.10s

 

Yeah as you can see form my thread I did use the ecu and fuel injection but its a long thread and I dont blame you for not searching the whole thing. If you are going to do a new motor Its best to buy a truck with a 360 to start with because you will have the ecu for the 360 and the wiring/fuel injection/accessory brakets ect. it seems like a big change to swich trucks but its worth it.

 

Alright man well thanks for the input. I really appreciate it.

 

that was a nice burn out.. i would love to have power like that.
