Goals of the build. Brakes and Engine

Now that you have an understanding of what I have to work with, here is what the goal is for this project. First Change out the Brakes!!!. The braking system on these vehicles sucks. I am going to upgrade the braking system and drop the vacuum assist and add hydraulic and add rear disks.

Convert the 351M to 6.9 Liter Diesel. I will be adding videos soon. On the engine side I want the best parts I can find. I am looking for longevity and reliability. I did not want a stinking computer that could fail. I wanted to keep the Bronco mechanically SIMPLE! lower my fuel costs improve low end performance with the ability to have freeway speeds. When I put my foot into it, I don't want to worry if something is going to fail in the engine.  Improve to overall build. Some say it will handle 40lbs boost, other say it was a mistake and the Cummings would have been a better choice for the monies. Well I want a ford product in my FORD BRONCO!

More to come
