You are right, the shield did not initially work. I have since covered it with heat tape from DEI and now it works just fine. I am going to update to a 7al box and a more bad ass coil. Since I have switched back to 91 octane fuel from E85 I am having spark blow out around 17lbs of boost or around 500 whp. I talked to MSD and they said the 6al was not enough for that much boost. Once I change that we will hopefully be able to make some full runs at 24 psi!! Here is a pic of some more stickers I put on.

You mentioned about problems with your module overheating. It looks like you have an aluminium heat shied between the electronics and the turbo. I think the aluminium will absorb the heat and radiate it onto module. It's great for transmitting heat like that. It might be worth trying something that will insulate it from the turbo. Just a thought.

Actually we are still at 24 lbs of boost. I figured what the heck, you can't tell people you have almost a 1,000hp power if it isn't there all the time right! If I want less boost I can just back out of the throttle, which never happens. I still havn't had it back on the dyno but I have done a lot of ripping on it on the street. It kindof makes you giggle a little bit. The torque when you hit third gear and crank up to 24 lbs of boost is like nothing I have ever felt. That little truck is awesome, handles great drives like a dream, don't get me wrong I miss my old 62 4X4 but that 99 F150 is a great pickup I love it. Now with quieter mufflers it is such a pleasant drive down the road. I have got a lot of comments on how quiet the engine itself runs when I show it off and let it run for people they can't believe how smooth and quiet the engine is mechanically. Don't kid yourself I run this thing really hard. We might run some water/meth injection now that we are running 91 octane instead of E85. Here is the last dyno run we made in case everyone hasn't seen it.

Wow, that is different, a real twist on things. Down to 19lbs boost, now that's pretty serious! I like it.

Got my licence plates back.



Got some of the badging on. I have some more 292 stuff just havn't decided were to put them.



If you look at the bottom hole in the bumper you can see a new cooler. I know its crazy but we were having issues with my A100 fuel pump vapor locking on really hot days when I would pull the dyno trailer. Called Aeromotive and they said since it's not in the tank it needs a fuel cooler in the return line. It's probably no the safest place for a fuel cooler but it looks great up there.

This is a switch. A late model vehicle with an older engine design instead of the other way around. Great job.

Wow! Talk about a serious street sleeper. I pity the fool that takes it on. I hope you get good coverage and a good Dyno result at the show. Might dumbfound the crowd if the numbers are as good as before. Can't wait to see it at Columbus Smile. Chuck

Well the kids and I got the hose out the other day and washed up the ford. Got all the painting done and she looks pretty good.



We were able to fit the exhaust out he body kit I love the way that looks.





Not bad for a $300 pickup.



Got my boost gauge and wide band mounted and in.



I love my Strange rear diff with 12' disc brakes and the ladder bars are sweet. This thing actually hooks up extremely well through the gears. About half throttle is perfect until late in 2nd gear then once you hit third it turns into a rocket. Have to be careful because it will still break the tires loose in third. I turned the boost down to about 19 lbs of boost and its a little easier to control.



Got some sweet stickers from Johnny so I figured this is a perfect place for it.



We were having issues with my modules overheating so I installed a fan ro move air across them all the time. I will see what this does and then build something mor permanent. I will now this weekend we will be in Jamestown, ND for a car show about 130 miles away. I will be pulling the dyno there with the Y-block. I will let you know how it does this weekend.
