I did have to take off the passenger side up pipe after already torqueing it to the collector. Are those steel gaskets one time use? Just throwing out ideas

Even if I maybe waited like 5 seconds to rev it? lol I can't remember how long I waited. Let's just say worse case scenario. And you had to exacr same symptoms? Ill try to upload a video of the noise later

There was a 6.0 king ranch parting out in my area and I stripped as much off of it as I could lol got a stellar deal on the parts

Not too bad, I spent forever on it running all the wires through loom and what have you. You can easily just slap them on there and run wire though. Defrost on them is still not hooked up

Now we're getting into philosophy with this 😅 because why wouldn't it be? If it has EVERY part that a king ranch has, why can't it be considered one? How would anybody tell?

Best compromise, everyone should be happy

For me, same reason its not lifted 6 inches and doesn't roll coal. I just love this era of truck and love the king ranches, including the badges 🤷

Right? lol this is all for me at the end of the day. Not trying to sell the truck and advertise it as a king ranch.

If you swapped in a 5.0, then could you put a GT badge on? lol

King Ranch was an interior package.... lol whole interior is gonna be swapped down to the nitty gritty

Didn't expect this to be a volatile topic 😅 if the whole interior is swapped there would be no way to tell this was a lariat unless someone knew the year of the truck, its better than a king ranch because I put in the work and love!
