Forgive me I posted this in the wrong section, I wasn't sure where to post it.

A small introduction about me, I own a custom fabrication shop in Stuart FL. I specialize in fabrication and I do full race car builds/ street car builds or basically whatever my customers want.

I'm currently working on a 2014 F150 4x4 we put a 5.0 Alumintaor Ford racing motor and I'm building custom headers for a custom TwinTurbo set up.


Headers are hand made with Stainless 304, 1.75" Primary's, 1/2" Thick CNC machined flanges, 2.5" Stainless V band Collectors.


Here are a couple of pics, and if you would like to see more of my work you can look me up on Instagram under GearheadFabrications.

Very nice. I think this is the perfect section for this build. The quality looks very good on that exhaust work.

Thanks the goal is 750hp to the wheels and we should be hitting the rollers in the next few weeks

1st off , VERY impressed with your work.

With this kind of power (750hp !!!!) do you think the 4x4 tranfer case or transmission will hold up ?

I just locked up a trade deal (my 2013 Mustang GT premium) for a new 2014 leftover 5.0 stx sport 4x4 with a regular cab , short bed , 3.55 limited slip rear set up.

I plan on using a roush TVS set up in the future for my f150 so what would be safe from a power standpoint for my 4wd drive train ?

That coyote engine rocks and I just had to have in a f150.

Thanks for kind words.

We upgraded the trans to a circle D unit with billet internal as well as the converter. Not sure how the transfer case is going to hold up. This truck was running a TVS for 55k miles till it kicked a rod out. (I have the blower for sale for $3500)

Some more progress on the exhaust. Very tight fit, but you have to take your time.

Awesome!! I am working on a Supercharged 2014 F150 as well. Sure as hell won't be the beast that yours will be, but it's still fun!

I am curious, what wheel, tire and suspension set up are you going with? This is where I am stuck. I am probably only going to be in the 500whp range when I am done, because it's my DD and am trying to go conservative with it.

I've put down over 700rwhp with a TVS and aluminator with over 100 4x4 launches at the track the transfer case has never been a problem. Trans is upgrade and circle D over 100K miles

Well I found an old time slip right on the dash of the truck and it appears he has run a 12.87 with the blower setup.

I would love to make some single/twin kits for the F150. If anyone is in South FL and is insterested in dropping your truck off to build a kit off of let me know.

This customer pushed his deadline up so unfortunatly I can't make another one using this truck due to time crunch.
