If you could tell me what the camshaft and compression are I should be able to put it into desktop dyno.

Tough to say what it will run.

300 horsepower in a light enough vehicle can result in some very respectable times. But 4600 pounds is alot of truck.
I was thinking 13.5's or so until I heard how much it weighed. Be sure to let us know what it did run.

And if you can get pictures... I love older Ford's. :)

Ooh. our own version of pass time? name the time, win the cash? how much do we win?

Well, normally trucks would send the tires up in smoke, and i'd go with a high time, but being it has m/t's, and provided he doesn't miss a shift, i'm going with 15.20... Hope that carbs dialed!
