Vehicle Description
For sale is a 1960 Ford F-100 with a Caterpillar diesel engine
swap! It's name is "FrankenFord'. To start off with this Truck has
been featured in several magazines and even made Center fold of
both Motor Trend and Diesel Power Magazine! If You simply Google
'FrankenFord' the truck is extremely well known and is ALL over the
internet! The truck has a Caterpillar Diesel 3044CT four cylinder
engine out of a 297 Skid Steer. It has a precision turbo & engine
5130 ball bearing turbo charged with a 39mm waste gate. The turbine
spins with the help of custom exhaust headers connected to a T3
flange. The intake charge is fed through a large air-to-air
Mishimoto inter-cooler that's plumbed into a custom-fabricated,
log-style manifold with individual intake runners for each
cylinder. While a factory-fresh 3044CT is rated for just 80 hp and
around 250 lb-ft of torque, the new setup is good for an estimated
250 hp and 500 lb-ft. The industrial gearbox was ditched for a
Muncie three-speed manual transmission sourced from an 1980
Chevrolet C-10 wrecker pickup and fitted with a Hurst Indy shifter,
it sends twist to tall 3.00 gears in the rear, which allows the
truck to get more than 30 mpg! The axle is a Ford 9' unit equipped
with a limited-slip differential and brakes with all new
components. The Truck will still get up and go and easily hit
highway speeds on the interstate. The truck is super fun and gets a
lot of attention everywhere you drive it!! Truck has 2,130 miles.
