Busting Snow Drifts with my Turbo 300 Inline 6!

Just having some fun after a snowstorm left 15" of fresh snow on the ground. Like and Subscribe for more videos!

[@josefrobbins8781]

Comment sections on Turbo 6 Gas builds: " It sounds just like a 12V!" Me: I mean...it technically is a 12V😆 Seriously though, appreciate you keeping us updated. Nice roost from yah in the snow, and even better sound. Looking forward to the 5spd swap.

[@Mr.Safety.]

For real, that 300 is basically a gas 12v now

[@life_of_riley88]

I just love how diesely this thing sounds. 💪👍

[@WastedPaycheckGarage]

A lot of people tell me it reminds them of a 12v Cummins

[@jerryhayden8720]

That's what I was thinking and I drove a big truck for almost 30 years. Yes sir that sounds right to me too.👍

The 5 speed makes a world of difference, the ratios are better suited to the increased power. I put a 5 speed in my ‘67 f100 with a built 240, never saw a 3.9 liter engine cruise that well in a truck that big. Stock it went 65ish mph (revving out) and with the 5 speed it could cruise comfortably at 75. The 240 had an offy intake, 2bbl Holley, mild cam, best MSD 6AL digital ignition, EFI 4.9 exhaust manifolds and dual exhaust with x-pipe. I miss it overall, but I REALLY don’t miss the manual steering and non-boosted 4 wheel drum brakes! 😂 thing couldn’t stop to save a life, especially at the new top speed! 70-0 was 1/4 mile or so 😂

Golden retriever was like: shit, he's just gonna drive in circles again!

[@brianmachan6959]

This is basically a small Cummins on gas, you need to drive it to understand it.

[@GorillaCookies]

I have a 71 short bed f100 4x4 with a 300 Inline 6, Np435 4 speed and a swapped in Np205 t case. I plan to turbo it like I my 75 f100 4x4 300 Inline 6. Truck was a blast until it was stolen

[@James-xo4uv]

Nice truck, personally I would of left the stock instrument setup, because now it looks bad without any trim around the heater control and the radio

[@lifeenhancements9595]

No school like the old school. Nice.

[@_..-.._..-.._]

Have you done any truck & tractor pulls? This is the kind of truck that would go slow and steady all the way, especially with a locker or 2!!!

[@WastedPaycheckGarage]

I wanted to enter in one this summer but they snuck up on me and I forgot I don’t have a front driveshaft. I want to get a driveshaft and build some traction bars and run it in the street truck pull next year

[@isaacklaue9050]

i was on the borderline of turboing my 85 f150 with the good ol 300 and just hearing this beast did me in shes getting boosted and i get to hear turbo noises :)

[@Project-gr6zy]

you might be able to find a brownie box for that 5 speed, could do 5.16 rear gears with the brownie OD plus the the 5spd would make for a sweet hauler too

[@johnelliott7375]

Poor pup wanted to go for a good ride.

[@booostdemongarage4827]

Hey I was wondering if u can send me a link for the turbo because I go to vs racing and search 7875 turbo and there’s different versions of them and I want to know cause i love the whistle of the one u have.

[@WastedPaycheckGarage]

I believe this is the exact one. Mine’s a .96AR 7875 billet wheel. Not sure what generation it is, I bought it new in box from a guy down the road from me. turbo4less.com/product/vsr-7875-billet-t51r-96ar-or-1-25-ar-options-reverse-options/

[@booostdemongarage4827]

@@WastedPaycheckGarage I also have another question do u think the ford 300 will be able to take 20 pound of boost?

[@WastedPaycheckGarage]

Not on a stock bottom end. It might hold but probably wouldn’t live long

[@WastedPaycheckGarage]

A factory forged bottom end like the ones in industrial 300’s (generators, irrigation pumps, etc.) might take it. They’re getting hard to find though

[@Cheezeball99999]

I just found a ZF, myself. Was looking for a four-speed bellhousing to stick my 300 to the transmission my 460 was on, but I ended up stumbling upon a small block pattern 4X4 ZF5. Now if only I could stumble upon some turbo headers and an Aussiespeed intake, we'd be in good shape! The turbo sounds beautiful, and I *love* those tires. Were you even in 4X?

[@WastedPaycheckGarage]

These small block 4x4 zf5’s are hard to come by. But yea I was in 4x4 most of the video, didn’t need it in the deep snow but the driveway was solid ice underneath the snow and the truck didn’t want to get going

[@adamdenton7220]

What kind of fuel mileage are you getting on it before and after the 5 speed

[@daumination247]

Love seeing your truck, dude! Bessies been in the shop for over a year now…. Finally got my hands on a new ECM. Can’t wait to have my 300six back

[@AlainHubert]

Very nice sounding turbo. I wish my Twin Turbo V6 Stinger could sound like this...

[@_..-.._..-.._]

It sounds good for a truck, a sports car? Not so much imo.

[@brandonruhl4525]

love seeing people do things different. nice build man

[@poppagrouch4781]

I see narrow tires grip and helps it right along... Always wondered how true... Thanks You tube and Wasted Paycheck Garage.... Now I know...

[@jerryhayden8720]

Wycked Sins I drove a truck for a company many years ago and one of the dispatcher's grew up on a farm that had a small hog operation amongst other things and the dispatcher said his dad bought a new pickup that came with wider tires and after his dad got stuck a few times and had the tractor pull it out he put the skinny tires off the old truck onto the new truck and solved the problem of getting stuck practically on top of the mud because it apparently needed to get down to some firmer substance. I learned something that day. Tall & skinny apparently has it's place regardless of what some of us, like me, thought were probably better. Oh well.

[@PaulThomas-qo9vy]

Nice off-road warmup! At least you have room to keep Ol'Blue excercised while the salt is on the roads. Suggestion for experiment on the cutout: get a 5" or 6" diameter exhaust pipe about 3 to 4 feet long (or longer, if possible) & dump the exhaust from the cutout into the big pipe for a much deeper exhaust tone. Just hang it on temporarily with baling wire. It's amazing how much Deeper it sounds, (thing big white Tuba in highschool band) This turbo Big 6 is fun! Thanks for sharing the vids!

Hey so did you build your motor at all before throwing a turbo on it? What psi you running roughly. Like 10psi or more? Lol anything brake yet?

[@WastedPaycheckGarage]

Stock bottom end and rotating assembly, comp 268 cam, Chevy 292 rocker arms, .060” valve spring shims. Running 8psi, broken a few things but nothing major

[@jimsmirh2406]

I like that ole truck. It’s in good shape for its age. I have an ‘86 F150 short bed 4X4 with a 460 in it and I’m thinking about doing a manual swap to a T89 four speed.

Nope, eventually want to put a Detroit locker in the rear but it’s going to have to wait a little while

Any troubles with it yet I just bought a 86 f150 inline 6 wanting to do this to it but don’t wanna ruin that motor

A few small issues, mostly self inflicted though. I wouldn’t do this to an unbuilt motor you want to last forever though. I can’t make any promises about longevity, I only have 3100 miles on it

[@chuckfowler4754]

Are those just factory height super duty springs? Did you change the rears out as well?

[@WastedPaycheckGarage]

Yep they’re stock height, part number 43-812, they’re the lightest capacity ones I could get being that the 300 doesn’t weigh much. You have to have custom shackles in the rear for them to work. Didn’t change the rear ones, I plan on adding air bags for towing so it doesn’t squat
