"I never back down and I love a good challenge" __ Hank Williams Jr __ 'Born To Boogie'
Thanks for the posts on my build! I was doing a 1966 F100 search on google and found this page.
Actually, I just started to build another EcoBoost Powered '66 this week. It will be 180 deg from other project. Basic swap keeping rest of truck stock.
More of a daily driver I can drive now instead of a thousand hours left until completion on the other.

"You know J.R. is making deals" __ Hank Williams Jr __ 'This Ain't Dallas'
I guess here or the Pub, we had a guy from the UK posting his build on a wagon in the Pub. Personally, I'd love to see how you built it, as I know there's more than just a few things that you had to get creative on.
I was thinking it was 30-60 days since my last post at maximum. Only to check in and find it was back in February! No clue where all that time went.
Update :
Eco 1 has been on the road for some time now. Approx 1300 miles so far. ZERO issues its been just tinker a bit at a time. TUrn key and just drive it. Still working on proper "TUNE"
But, Is running quite nice at the moment. Just gotta sneak up on the tune a bit at a time but think we are getting close. Currently have low speed boost turned way down to stop the "wheel spin".
Max boost is limited to 19 PSI. Feels like a easy 12 second truck at current tune limited by traction.
This short video should show where Eco 1 is at right now.
While programming the PCM, BCM & Transmission Modules.
Also trying to figure out how to make the all new 2015 PATS operational as at the time there was no PATS bypass for the '15 & Up PCM's
I did find out also that the PCM and BCM have to be from same veh as in Push button or non push button start. Intermixing components simply does not work.
Ford even has a TSB Regarding that. Seen here. Sure learned a lot during this process!
I also found out there were many features I could turn off and on.
I also had to program trans strategy info in order for the system to work properly.
I also found the '15 & up run a very high fuel pressure from tank pump of up to 120 PSI. My truck at the time I checked was 116 PSI well within the range. I also found that the high pressure pump would run 2900 PSI !
Quick update! Still doing EcoBoost Swaps. This is number 4 into a 1966 F100/250
This is a one of five Raptor 450/510 Crate engines sold by Ford Performance. I was lucky to be able to buy one for this truck I have owned for over 20 years.
It's also getting a 10R80 10 speed auto. Goal is to fit all the Raptor parts underhood without modification to said parts and very minimal mods to truck to make it look like it belongs there.
Building a custom harness now using a stock PCM.
Interior and exterior will remain stock with exception of the large 14" brakes on all four corners and of course the custom made wheels to clear the large brakes.
I had let my 01 F150 sit for at least 8 months since we weren't using it. I went to try and start it up last month, refused to start. Checked the battery with our battery charger, it would not charge fully, ended up saying it was a bad battery. SOOO, I replaced it, thinking my truck would start...
Hello there,
My Ford F150 XLT 2011 has a rattle noise upon accelerating from a stop light or sometimes going up hill.
I recently had the issues with the IWE but those were resolved a few weeks ago.
It is a lot more louder when i use 87 octane instead of 91, i switched to 91 and i can hear it...
I had it running 2 days ago, but it was running bad. I could not get it to stay on after I let of the gas, so I replaced the idle air control valve and the ignition coil b (because there was an code saying coil b problem). Now the truck just cranks, and maybe fires every once in awhile. I...
.
As you can see from the pictures, the timing marks on the chain have moved from whenever I timed it.
I followed the normal timing procedure and then turned the crankshaft a few times. Every time I turn the crankshaft the color links get further away, but as you can see, they are the...
I just got finished replacing the head gaskets on a 2001 Ford F-150 5.4L.
Here is the story:
My uncle got this truck from a dealer. He used k-seal to fix the head gasket, but when he replaced the coil packs and plug, it blew the k-seal. He tore it apart and replaced the head gasket, but when...
