The next challenge was getting the 6.7L to run outside of the donor truck. We wanted to retain the original dash and aesthetic of the 1964. For this Mars Auto was able to convert the factory harness into a complete stand-alone and disable the PATS (security immobilser) in the ECM. This let us get the engine running without the factory speedometer, radio, keys, body control module, etc... etc.... ALL of those unnecessary modules modules got eliminated. The only remaining modules to run and operate the drivetrain were the ECM, TCM, and Glow Plug Module.

 

Beginning to even fit this monster 6.7L drivetrain, I had to modify the firewall mainly to clear the exhaust downpipe. It was about 4 inches the firewall needed displaced. I think there is still room for Vintage Air A/C unit. We also decided to use an Early Bronco 45 degree brake booster relocate it out of the way of the fuel system on the drivers valve cover.

 

Creating room on the firewall was mainly to fit that large 4-5 inches of room around the downpipe. But the height of the engine was also a bit of a squeeze in the factory '64 cab. We did not anticipate the factory intake to be a problem either. The factory intake had to be removed and we began the creation of full custom intake tubing.

You can also see this chassis is sitting on full King Suspension.

 

With Clouse Custom Machine aluminum intake adapters, we started to with a 3 inch Y-pipe and routed down to the intake adapter plates. Replication of the factory boost tube from the turbo to the Intercooler was pretty straight forward. I didn't realize we would have such tight clearance under the hood. The upper radiator inlet needed to be repositioned for the hose to fit without interfering with the alternator. This left routing the charge pipe from the intercooler under the upper radiator. I installed an aftermarket Air-To-Water intercooler positioned under the upper drivers fender well.
