- Taking the wife out on her first ride in the turbo 460 Ford. Kind of a long video with not a lot of action but some trubo tuning talk.
Waiting on some 80lb per hour injectors and a boost controller before I can let her eat.
Tuning with Stinger Performance PiMPx Megasquirt 3 ECU
Engine built by Scotty the Mad Porter at parklandautomac...
What makes me most happy about this, is not how much you like it, but how much she likes that you like it.
Looks sweet man. Sounds like my wife and I's conversations she asks questions and I dump knowledge on her using terms she's never herd before and she clowns on me 🤣
Very cool build. Its easy to tell how passionate you are about this thing. Awesome job!
Thank you! Check out my newest video. Have made some changes since this one but truck just put down almost 700whp and 800wtq!
And a manual! Well done, sir.
Thanks for the awesome video! Super cool all the info you're give.
You're wife's responses are great 🤣
Lol ya her sarcasm is top notch. I'm hoping to make another video tomorrow with an overview of the build and some road tuning. Thanks for your support!
Yes She Knows She Sound Like Knows The Tech... Hit Hard 46 years I Am with one Like Her... you know that She IS keeper when she buys you a toolbox with her babysitting money !
Amazing! Always loved those big block Fords!! Good Job Brother!
Great build man. I’m jealous
That is one badass truck !!! Love the sound of that bov
Wish this guy would put a detailed spec list or parts list of what he has done to this so others can do the same.
There are several videos that cover the entire build in detail. Check out some of my videos that are newer than this one. Truck has a homemade hot side using two stock driver's side manifolds, an S480 turbo, 450lph pump, deka 80 injectors, water methanol injection, etc... Let me know if you have any questions in particular. It's an easy build that I did in my two car garage.
@@johnvirgilsgarage are all videos on your channels and I would be up for more details for sure my father and I are finishing up our shop now and will have some time to start doing something like this. I have a 97 460 efi. I’m assuming the same avenue could be used on mine that you did. Would definitely love some links to parts lists or in depth of the setup. Could definitely contact you once I got mine pulled and started the job.
Ya for sure man. Check out my newer videos. They cover everything as the build progressed. I definitely learned a lot, some the hard way lol. Email me at johnvirgilsgarage@protonmail.com if you have any questions.
How much different would your path be vs a 1990 7.5? From my current understanding my 90 has a much more primitive computer which can’t handle basically any changes.
Super bitchin bro!! So nice your wife offered to buy you a clutch! Could you give us a run down of what all is done to the engine internals?
Awesome truck. Great job.
I bought a big hammer and some duct tape, and I got a friend that knows a guy that can read a ruler I'm going to try and put one in a 95 mustang gt ....
You mentioned something about Scotty saying it was good up to so many lbs. of boost. Is this engine the same build they have as the crate EFI...just as you got it from Parkland? Is the low boost only because of bottom end.
Also, if you don’t mind me asking, did you do all of the piping? How much total do you have wrapped up in it now, minus the engine build?
I may consider going this route instead of the 502 crate EFI. Scotty says I’m 6months out whichever way I go.
I like your fun-haver and am looking forward to having a built motor in mine! Keep up the good work. Hope the new injectors do you right!
Yes I believe it's the same as the crate EFI he now sells. They boost limitation is due to the ring gap. Scotty increased the ring gap for increased cylinder pressure / heat but not as far as he would like for a turbo application. He believes the ring gap is good up to 10psi, probably more but he wants me to stay on the safe side of things.
Yes I did all of the fabrication for both hot side and cold side. I would estimate I have around $1,500 in parts but that includes some wear items I replaced while I was in there.
Thanks for the support and I stoked to get the 80lb injectors in. They arrived yesterday 😁.
@@johnvirgilsgarage that’s great they arrived. I came over from the diesel world. I know that piping can be tough, much respect! I like the intake pieces after the BOV. Once I get things lined out maybe I can get your help with tuning. I know nothing about gas tuning. Look forward to seeing more.
I'm sure Scotty could do the EFI package and easily make it boost ready. I would have gone that route if I had it to do over again. Bit more ring gap and good to go. Guys are running the stock head bolts and pistons with way more boost than I run.
I've gotta 460 from my 78 Supercab F350 I wanna build for TT and throw a Mild Cam in but I wanna get a Bullnose ext cab long bed ZF5 that doesn't have an engine, as I'd love to build an F250/F350 460 for the track or even sled pulls and of course hauling a Gooseneck/5th wheel trailer
I keep hearing you say Megasquirt. I haven’t seen all of your vids but I really like this. What MS are you running. I’m familiar and have built and successfully run one on a NA small block. I love it.
I'm running the Stinger Performance PiMPx Megasquirt 3 ECU that is plug and play on EEC-IV Ford vehicles. It's freakin awesome.
I'll second that! The PiMPXs is the best thing I ever did for my 84 SVO! Stinger and WesK are AWESOME guys to work with.
It's for the video!
you're just north of me sweet truck!
Hey how do you like the truck? There is one near my work. And everytime I drive by it I want it. I have a 7.3 but don't know much about the 7.5 EFI. Is it worth it or should I hold out for 90s 7.3. I have a 02.
I absolutely love the 460 engines. Even in stock EFI form they are good pullers. A turbo makes them amazing. I guess ultimately it comes down to budget and what you want to use it for. A simple turbo efi 460 with a stand alone ecu is an absolute blast to drive and would whoop on most mildly modified diesels
Great information, well spoken.
Thank you very much! Check out the newer videos. Had some troubles but the truck is back up and running. Hopefully get a new video posted today 🤙
I thought she was serious! I used to tell my ex "just pretend you know what I'm talking about"🤣🤣🤣
😂 ya she thinks she is hilarious 😂
Sounds soooo good!
Very inspiring.
sounds great
You need to make an instructional video explaining what you did. Everyone talks about doing this but no one does
Mark Buster, definitely planning on it as soon as possible. There is a lot to go over and I'd like to do some Megasquirt tuning videos also.
I'm running a vortech supercharger on my efi 460 I'm at 9psi on a bone stock 460 for 2 years now. I'd guess 10 psi is very safe.
It's amazing what just more fuel and timing do for these 460's. It's a shame they didn't take off with the aftermarket like the old 5.0 did.
Are you running speed density?
That's good to know! I am running a PiMPx Megasquirt 3 plug and play ECU from Stinger Performance. Currently set up for speed density but have later plans for coil on plug and sequential.
@@johnvirgilsgarage awesome man please keep us posted that's something I've been thinking about is running something like LS coils and get rid of the distributor.
my current setup is a Mustang a9p eec with a motes quarter horse. My setup runs really good so I'm hesitant to go messing with it and changing it. But like most car guys we can't leave stuff alone.
@@david63390 that's awesome! I have never played with the moates stuff but I am a huge fan of Megasquirt 3 and the autotune / EGO correction works amazing.
Gunna have to disagree with you there. Do more research, there is nothing wrong with speed density based tuning especially in a turbo application. This is not a factory speed density EFI system, I am running a full stand alone.
I guess it all depends on what you are trying to accomplish, but for me and a ton of turbo applications it is not the answer. If your goal is the smoothest idle possibe and maximum fuel efficiency then that's a different story.
Choo choo!!! Love that!!
What ya runnin for exhaust sounds really good
Could you make a video on how much it costs to put a turbo in one of these trucks and also how to do it
Ya I plan on doing a video like that as soon as I have some free time. Cost for me was around $1,000 not including my time for fabrication.
@@johnvirgilsgarage I would like to do this to my truck. I’ll keep my eyes out for the video!
1:35- Shut down his EGO really quick. "That's All!?" Wonder how many men thought they were equipped and immediately received that response?
She was joking, hence her immediate laughter directly afterwards
Talk automotive to me John Virgil!
Nice work!
Sounds awesome
Sweet what turbo kit n what's the mpg. I have f350 with 460 love these old trucks
It's all been fabricated by me in my garage. MPG is pretty much the same 8-12ish depending on how I drive it. I have gotten as high as 14 on the highway running my tune on the Megasquirt.
where you located? highway 9 makes me think of home on 530 in arlington
To the south of Arlington near hwy 9 for me.
It would be awesome to see that truck do a sled pull
Haha “not a diesel” I love it. A turbo obs that isn’t the slow boat anchor 7.3 or that IDI engine. Love it! Tryna figure out what trans you have. Zf5?
😂 ya I have a ZF5. Its actually the weaker ZF S5-42 with about 300k miles on it and still going strong.
@@johnvirgilsgarage man for the longest time I wanted a zf trans but I ultimately decided I’d enjoy a manual valve body c6. I bet I spend more money than you and break more than you though. Hopefully I don’t regret her decision. But everything I read said the c6 had only one drawback. No OD. Otherwise it’s indestructible when built!
Man, I’m planning on doing a blow through setup. I have older stuff than you. I too hope I don’t regret skipping the EFI. I have lots of questions going into this project but yours gives me motivation. It’s my high school truck… been waiting on me for 12 years and I finally have the shop, money, and time to get it done. I’m sure there are 10,000 others saying they’re building one too but ya never see them make it. I WONT LET YOU STAND ALONE AT THE TURBO 460 OBS FORD MOUNTAIN. I WILL JOIN YOU ONE DAY!
That said man have you posted your youtube channel to any of the Facebook pages? Lots of ppl love these kinda channels. You never know where you could end up. Get 1k then get monetized then post videos thrashing and tooling on it then BOOM. RETIRE to make videos all day. You can do it. You’ve already done the work my guy. Love the channel.
That's awesome man and I definitely considered the C6 as well but ultimately wanted to keep the overdrive. Also I love the super low 1st gear on the ZF. I plan on trying the boost up as far as I can to see how much I can put through this ZF trans. I expect my clutch to be the first thing to go but since it breaks the tires loose so easily, I think that is saving parts from breaking.
I shared my UA-cam channel with a few FB groups but not too many. I would love to get this channel over 1k subs, definitely a goal of mine. My goal for the channel is to show people how awesome these 460's are with some boost, how easily they make power for cheap and to document the build. I hope to do a boosted OBS bronco next 🙂
@@johnvirgilsgarage heck yeah man I saw the video where your wife said you had a birthday coming up (about the upgraded clutch) but man these trucks are so light in the rear. You could probably grocery get and romp around town for years without breaking that clutch. I just know that no OD is gonna murder any mileage I would ever get but hey… they didn’t have OD back in the day. Muscle for life! Two branches of the same tree!
I also saw the video where you said if you got enough of a following you’d like to do a bronco. That would be killer, man. Let’s make it happen! I think social media correspondence will help you gain followers. I have searched turbo Ford’s of all sorts for 4+ years and I just now discovered your channel. And it’s even a brick nose. As soon as I saw the title I was like “WHAT!? THIS IS IT THIS IS WHAT I WANT TO DO!” Immediately a fan.
I’ll be sure to suggest and share your page. The shorts are great also. Random burnouts and a maxed speedo, that’s plenty metal bro. You do the same stuff I wish I could do!
@@travistorres2502 😂 hell ya man that's awesome! Well hopefully I'll get this engine in soon, the long block is all assembled and everything is fabricated up. Just need to drop it in and do a little bit of wiring 🤘
What mega squirt is it? Maybe they only have updated models
It's a Megasquirt 3 ECU made by Stinger Performance called a pimpxs. Fully sequential for fuel and spark. I'm running LS coils for each plug.
@John Virgil but not in this video right? Didn't you ran stock distributor for awhile?
Thanks for the videos. All the forums are smart guys who only want to sound smart or people smart enough to tell you not to do it but never the answers to the questions you're asking.
Yes sorry in this video I was on a stock Ford TFI distributor and I believe I still had the Pimpx ECU. I later upgraded to the sequential pimpxs ECU. And I agree about the forums, which is why I wanted to creat the UA-cam channel to get to the information out there and show what I have failed at and had success with.
what type of flares do you have on that their ford, thinking about getting a similar pair if not the same.
They are the old 90's Bushwhacker flares. I think they still sell them but for a lot more money than back in the day.
You ever pull a trailer with it?
Yes, frequently pull my ~7k# travel trailer and my Kubota 4400L tractor. Nothing to crazy heavy but it pulls very well.
@@johnvirgilsgarage nice... my c6 should handle a tubo 7.5...
Do you have a parts list?
I do but the truck has gone through several stages since this old video. Are you looking to have a basic turbo kit? My build has progressed farther than most probably want or need.
I want to turbo my 96 with a 460 what size turbos did you use?
S475 T6 1.32AR
@@johnvirgilsgarage ok thank you
Do you want me to tune it? Safe for pump power.
Remote tune? You are out of AZ right? I'd really like to put this thing on a Dyno once it's back up and running. Not sure if you saw the later videos but I cracked two piston's ringlands at 8-9psi. A local builder and I inspected the pistons under magnification and concluded that lack of ring gap broke the pistons (was never gapped for boost unfortunately). I have it back together with a forged bottom end and will hopefully have it fired back up soon.
@@johnvirgilsgarage i have not but send me a megasuirt file, i will revise it and send it back to you, free of charge
Whats your compression ratio at ? What cam and crank ?
Cam specs are...207 / 219 @ .050" 113 Lsa 109 ICL .490" / .526" lift HFT......9.2 to 1 static c/r and factory crank.
@@johnvirgilsgarage what pistons ?
I'm doing something similar but going with 4032 forged aluminum. Idk if my setup would work with his cam tho...
Only some cowboy from marysville drive non completely finished truck and everyone on UA-cam. Thanks for the vacuum.
87 Ford motor home 7.5 460
I know I'm late to the party but I got a 92 460 obviously I'm ripping you off.
Definitely make a "not a diesel" sticker
And I'll buy it as payment for ripping your build off
I forgot about that! I should definitely make that sticker lol
It's way cool to hear tour wife happen than you are lmao 90 ya that's it lmao
Do another one but leave the wife at home 😬
Probably speaking out of turn here but from what I’ve gathered watching this, his wife is instigating this behavior.....aka the good wife... the one you don’t leave out of the fun stuff but rather count on to encourage it. She has my vote to stay!

Your ring and pinion has obviously been changed because you were NOT doing 90mph! The trees are CREEPING by!
My ring and pinion has been changed but my speedometer has been corrected to be accurate. I have no reason to fake things 😂. Watch some of my other videos if that helps convince you.
omg....divorce
I wish there was a way to down vote his channel all the way down to MySpace
5:40
Sounds good
