The Story

My 1996 F-250 started with just being reliable transportation as I was ending college and would need a truck within the Agriculture Industry I work in. After graduation modifications started. I started with off-road wheels and tires but soon realized an old 3/4 ton diesel is not optimal for off-road adventures. At this time i was attending local drag racing events, watching cummins and duramax powered trucks put down amazing times. I noticed a true lack of Ford representation at these events. I soon shifted my f-250 to strictly track and street use only. I have gone through many different phases of this truck often redoing modifications as I gained more knowledge or more finances. Currently the truck is sitting at 600 wheel horse power on the dyno and can run mid 12s on the quarter mile and 7s in the 1/8th mile. I want to keep increasing power on this truck while maintaining drivability and fun. My end goal is four digit horse power numbers and to maintain the use ability. To achieve this goal an extensive engine swap my be in the future but only time will tell…
