Thread: 94 f150 4.9i6 xl reconstruct

Hi lover of obs Ford's bought project truck possibly bit off more then I can chew but it runs with a heater power windows not mirrors

Some goals to get it looking like new
Not sure if I want to put a 5.0 and boost that or boost the i6
I like that the 4.9 is basically the v8 with two less cylinders and is naturally balanced.
I want a newer engine like a barrat or coyote motor but then not sure how well those will mount to the transmission that will need to be newer as well to handle the power.
All controlled using megasquirt 3 with expansion.

Place atleast 4 8in high excursion subs in the back for seats
Place a pioneer next double din in the radio/hvac controls location then move hvac lower or into custom center console location
Also want to cut out the center seat and build a center console with a cut out for the shifter and install a mustang short throw shifter
I understand lots of complications in that.
Use sealed kick panel speakers or build a better door design with sealed speakers.

Had the rear diff out to fix a leak and seems the rear end might have been upgraded to the f250 rear end this summer I'll have to break into it again and count it out again.
broke a shim and had a lot of stress doing it on Saturday night then got it done sunday afternoon.

I have an issue with the front fuel tank and can't seem to find the fuel relay without taking the bed off to figure out what one I need.

Easyish retrofit mled didn't bother with the high beam bulb since the h1 bulb and reflector are $#!7

Used Trex duck tape to seal the back it was my cheap quick way of doing it and saw the test on you tube of how well it worked for what I wanted , longest lasting glue and strength
But I am going to use the 3d doodle pen to do a better job.
The mled where much bigger then the previous projector so I couldn't place the old cap on
