i'm 19 and i bought a 76 ford f250 high boy with a 390 and a c6 tranny. It ran good when i bought it but lost
oil pressure once i started driving it back and forth to work. It started pouring white smoke out of the right bank one day so it's been parked for like 3 weeks. I want to rebuild it but like everyone elsi i don't want to waste any money. What's the best choice for power from around 1500 to 4500 rpm. it's gonna be used for mudding and pulling but also cool transportation. Any suggestions on the parts i need to gain power with out a lot of money. I was thinking about getting it ported and polished and a performer rpm intake. also a 650 performer edelbrock i think is what i need. thanks for any help you can give me.
