Default the PITA project

It started out with a craigslist add that the guy wanted to trade his mustang for my daughters f-150.the morning of the trade the truck wouldn't start. so I went to look at the mustang and the guy said he needed it gone today he want $1000 for cause it wasn't running and HOA was going to start giving him tickets. I told him I had $500 cash and would tow it away today.My brother and I showed up later that day and played with the wiring for the POS mr. gasket fuel pump and got it running and drove it home. Yes I stole it but it has been a P.I.T.A (pain in the ass)

I was told that the engine was built for nitrus, forged pistons,class B cam, and moroso roller rockers. Thats all I was told

It also had TAMPA HORSEMEN across the front windshield. Gator says it was some kid that put it together and that he didn't know anything about the car or engine. Only that they didn't want to listen to what he said that they should do.

I know. looks like it goes all the way to the bumper.

On the the way home with it the first time. It came loose while me brother got on it. It was held on my 2 thin tie straps. It wouldn't shut off cause it had a switch that went to the distridutor, and it wasn't mounted anywhere,it was on the floorboard somewhere flopping around. My brother was trying to find it,control the car, and grabbing gears so the engine wouldn't blow.lmao

I believe those are made by a company called DUI. Davis Unified Ignition? Not sure, but rest assured, they ARE a Ford dizzy.
