If You simply Google "FrankenFord" the truck is extremely well know and is ALL over the internet! The truck has a CAT Diesel 3044CT four cylinder motor out of a 297 Skid Steer. It has a Precision Turbo & Engine 5130 ball bearing turbocharged with a 39mm wastegate.The turbine spins with the help of custom exhaust headers connected to a T3 flange. The intake charge is fed through a large air-to-air Mishimoto intercooler that’s plumbed into a custom-fabricated, log-style manifold with individual intake runners for each cylinder. While a factory-fresh 3044CT is rated for just 80 hp and around 250 lb-ft of torque, the new setup is good for an estimated 250 hp and 500 lb-ft.The industrial gearbox was ditched for a Muncie three-speed manual transmission sourced from an ’80 Chevrolet C-10 wrecker pickup. Fitted with a Hurst Indy shifter, it sends twist to tall 3.00 gears in the rear, which allows the truck to get more than 30 mpg.
