Nice truck. I bought my 97 in 2000 and started modding it shortly after that. I and a handful of others threw ideas around on the couple forums that were available at the time. Nobody really knew how to get power out of these things. After trial and error, 20 years later here we are. I'm running a set of maddog injectors so if anyone knows that name they know where I'm coming from :-) I love how many vendors there are available now. When I started there was maybe 6. Hypermax being the best and most expensive option. The group on the forums knew there were better and less expensive options. Swamp was one of them. Keep on trucking bud.
Beautiful color, beautiful truck. I have a 94 exactly like it. Except I had to do all new suspension on mine. I put F350 suspension with an add a leaf which makes it 450. A bulletproof Transmission in it up to a thousand pounds of foot torque. I have never raced it or ran it hard. It is never been off road. I pulled a 32 foot fifth wheel with it two or three times a year. It gets 21 miles to the gallon when not Towing. You can't beat it. These are awesome trucks. So sad to see that they're hard to come by. Enjoy it, do not tear it up. She's beautiful.
this is about the only video i have seen that doesn't make me want to puke! most of these bolt-on mechnics on you tube act like they created the first and only performance truck just because of the parts they bolted on! great job! sweet truck inside and out!
I hope when my 7.3 truck grows up it will be like this! Almost the same dream setup I want to go with just a little less fuel and a little less turbo but still t4.
Bad ass man. I have a 97 also but its dually w/ dump bed on it & weighs about 8900LBS. I intend to put a flat bed on it and get some real gains.Your truck is wicked!
That's one killer rig man! As a 7.3 guy myself, I know just how much you have into your truck! I just convinced myself to go with small 160s for a little more power and better mpg and then your video just had to come up to make me start questioning all of it again. hahaha I'll definitely be subscribing. Always nice to see another quality 7.3 channel out here.
Cool Channel n nice rig.I have FF 250/100s/H11 studs/Comp910s/SmithBros pushrods/Gearhead Hydra/ Carson Stauffer T4/ 364.5 sxe/BTS trans/T500 (need more)/My own efuel modeled after Driven diesel with a Rudys sump with the return.Ive got over 50k on my setup aside from the charger which was a 366 non sxe charger.I use Schaeffer oil/ATF and all the beating ive done to this rig it doesnt skip a beat.
Nice truck man, I'll be following along, I have a 94.5 7.3 crew cab long bed 4x4 5 speed, my setup is nowhere near as wild as yours, I'm running full force 180/0 tony wildman tuned, bellowed up pipes on a billett ww2 and 1.0 exhaust housing tp38, itll push 40 psi but the turbo hates it and starts passing oil, tymar downpipe to 5 inch exhaust, south bend clutch.... I need more oil and an intercooler. I also have 3.55 gears and i love them as i dont tow 24/7 with it so it helps with the fuel economy, the truck is mainly a tow vehicle we have everything from 16 foot trailer to 53 ft car hauler. I have a couple videos of my truck if u get bored and wanna check them out.
Basically was more curious as to if your truck had cruise control prior to the steering wheel swap and if you re-wire it into a dash switch someplace if applicable
So awesome man. Big IH/ Ford/Powerstroke fan. Especially the 7.3 trucks. Don't see many beasty OBS lurking around. But when ya do, man are they sweet! I just have the basics on my old beat up 01 F350 PSD. Gearhead Auto tunes, AFe intake, 4" turbo back.
Awesome build. I won't have a OBS with the stock mech pump/fuel bowl. I build my own fuel systems though. When my trans craps out this time I'm going to do an Allison MD3060 swap on it (6 speed auto with push button), I've got one on my bus and I hate autos till it comes to that thing, also getting one with a built in retarder makes life easier. I love the blue interior and yeah they sure are hard to find. Do you have the blue tooth OBDII adapter where you can use apps on a smart device to pull codes and watch all the PIDS? Truck sounds awesome, I love how you didn't butcher up the truck and kept it clean looking.
Powerstrokehelp.com was my 1st education. His tips are old but they get you in the right frame of mind of how to make her last. The Baptist has a lotta good info. No one shares their power secrets too much. Just gotta put the miles on and maintain and shop it up. I agree with homeboy and he has some good stuff. I like Clay at RIFFRAFF and them fellas at SWAMPS know they chit too!
Very nice, simple and clean. I have a 97 just like yours, same e40d, I will one day swap a manual in. One day. I have a custom made steel flatbed with side racks for hauling hay. I also want a hydrachip. How far in depth can you program that tuner? Its the reason I want it, is that you can change stuff.
I got the same truck in all black. .. it’s mostly stock. Just a sct tune and straight piped and a 6 in lift. 16.5 rims. The sct x3 tuner I got is no longer supported by sct. And they wiped out my tuner and insist I spend another 400$ on the x4. Nope told them I’ll be switching to hydra They are a horrible company.
I'm curious if you know what kind of MPGs you're making. I understand HP and MPG are never in mind together during a build lol But I am curious if you've had time to calculate and what seems to be your average?
Kinda a Centerfold model? I am partial to 97' "Claire" is more the Girl Nextdoor in the Carpenters Union Certified Welder type...I will have to hit you up when we are down yer way fer a lil boast and roast!
Lol I thought I recognized that truck, I follow you on Instagram. I have the grey 4x4 crew cab long bed 5 speed. Still haven’t figured out my idle issue 🤷🏼♀️
I don’t know everything about these obs 7.3s and looking for some help, 1995 motor, hasn’t ran in 2 years, where should I start? (Watch out for before buying)
I have the same truck almost all the same stuff!! Where did you go for the hydra settings? And where did you get the fan under the cab. 60lbs boost?!???
Love your content! Awesome truck had a question you might could answer for me I have a 97 hd 7.3 it has ts6 chip 3 inch down pipe I just recently changed the injectors I went with a baby swamp 150/146 single shot and truck doesn’t run good it spits and sputters rough idle and under acceleration it pops and cracks up until around 2400 rpm then goes decent but still missing any tips would be much appreciated thanks in advance
Anybody... How are you coping with interior plastic retainer areas where screws mount or retain like door panels at the window control area. I have a beautiful '97 . All the plastic is failing at mount/retention areas
Love your truck... good job. Where the heck do you get the money for all this expensive work ????lol And, one last thing. I have a 2000 Super Duty I'm fixing up...loving it...getting good info from you Thx. Last question... What does OBS stand for ????

Sick truck. I like the fact you didn’t douche out your truck.
AMEN!
Beautiful truck, nice to see a channel that isn't your average kid with a clapped second gen dodge. keep it up!
Not to many people do 7.3 builds especially the obs. The truck is sick btw!
Thank you!

Came for the truck, stayed for the music, nice choice, Motionless in White. and super nice truck Im a die hard cummins guy but OBS 7.3 are a must too.
Sweet truck! Makes me miss my OBS I used to have. Selling it was the worst decision I’ve ever made...

Just found your channel man, good job going into detail it helps that I don’t know much about diesels
Cool truck, I want see more of this truck ripping it up.
I dig this. Clean, fast, and fun. No cencal douchery or stupid Florida lift.
Cage Englander thank you! It makes for a great daily, I like the simpleness of it!
Really nice build. Even your gauges and dash look great. Most guys ignore those details LOL
Here for the rear😆👍🏻
I love the truck ! Blue is my favorite color for the outside. But oxblood red interior is the best
Nice job! I love that LE code paint on these trucks. Looks like a nice, clean build. Looks like a very well-done and tasteful build.
The LE code is a hard one to find! Thank you, I like it simple!
Basically was more curious as to if your truck had cruise control prior to the steering wheel swap and if you re-wire it into a dash switch someplace if applicable
Can't go wrong with a little Motionless in White, nice truck btw.
Sure can't! Thank you!

I like seeing more and more OBSA videos can’t wait to finally get mine done 🤘🏼
Where did you put the buttons for your cruise control?
Inspires me to keep grinding on my 96 f250 gotta love a clean obs
