THE WORKHORSE IN QUESTION

When it comes to ’17 model year trucks like this one, it’s believed Ford began installing the larger, stronger connecting rods starting with Job 2 trucks. In our quest to find out if we have the “better” rods, we ran the truck’s VIN and build date by our contact at Ford, and were told our engine was in fact a Job 2. To find out for sure, we’ll be taking a peek inside the engine next time, as the compound turbo system requires the oil pan be pulled. That’s right, we said compounds. In the second installment, we’ll be adding the highest quality turbo kit in the industry and replacing the valley charger with the hottest selling VGT on the market. Make sure you’re here for Part 2!
