Hey everyone my name is Robi Hutzenbiler. I own a repair shop and live in Wilton ND. I am new to this site but I have been on y-blocksforever for a few years. I have a 1962 F100 4X4 that I have been working on for about 3 years now. The build started with a pure stock truck with 42,000 miles on it. I started by building the engine n/a. Built that with a stroker kit from Mummert. Bumped the compression up and started blowing head gaskets. Long story short we posted the heads and that took care of that problem. Then we updated the drive train with a kit from bendstons (hope i spelled it right) in MN and installed and E4OD and 1356 transfer case. We decided to run fuel injection and turbo charge it. We are now running it on E85 @ 24psi with two HE351CW Holset turbos and we are turning 721 whp and 800 lb/ft of torque. We initially had the truck lifted slightly with 33 in mud tires. But with that kind of power the tires were not very happy and neither was the truck at high speeds. So I lowered the truck about 3 in and installed some new street wheels and tires. Have not driven it yet since we did these mods do to crappy weahter up here in ND. It decided to bless us with much more winter. We also gave the old girl a new coat of flat black paint and I painted the interior an added some new carpet and door inserts. I will post some pics and if anyone has questions on the truck or the buil I would be glad to elaborate on it. I have been working on this thing for too long to include everything in one post. Here are some pics and some video.

Video of our 600+ whp run. It was a great day!!
Five back to back runs with no break or cool down time. Very little power loss.
The new paint job.
I like the black and the lower look.
New carpet and the seats are out of a 95 F150.
I also have a Dakota Digital dash which is sick and I would recommend to anyone.
This is our latest pull at 24 psi!! We have a Dynotech chassis dyno from Dyno Dynamics.
