Cheap horsepower for your 7.3L Godzilla Ford!! And Mountain Biking!

This was a fun one! Mountain Bike riding in the morning then we head over to run my 2020 Ford F-350 on the dyno to see what kind of power the 7.3 Godzilla Gas engine puts down. Then, back to The Dirthead Shed for mods. I replace the stock resonator and muffler with parts from Flowmaster , Thrush, and Dynomax. Then it's back to the dyno shop to see if we made power, or lost power. Watch and see the results!

    Resonators are the cheat code for a drone-free exhaust. My car has four resonators and no mufflers. She screams at WOT but I barely hear it on the highway.

    65. When you stop eating all the junk. Junk like all those delicious baked goods your wife makes and ice cream. That makes a huge difference. Gave up the junk started walking. A little at a time. Two miles 3 or 4 times a week. Dropped 30 lbs in 4 months. No other exercise. Kept eating what I was eating already. Gave up the cakes,cookies,pies and ice cream. So good on you for taking interest in your health.

    Just remember it takes time, keep at it and it will come. Get a goal and a plan to achieve that goal. And diet goes hand in hand with the exercise. If diet is crap you will look like crap. I came back after spending two months in a hospital bed, losing over 50lbs of muscle and have to learn how to walk again. But with heart and dedication I was able to compete in my very first bodybuilding show a year-to-date after getting shot. It goes the same with someone just trying to get back into shape. Keep at it buddy.

The gain is enough not to notice any decrease of gas mileage when you are using your A/C. Excellent overall outcome👍. Any form of exercise is good for anybody. Good for you. I don't ride bikes anymore (71 yrs old) because of health issue but when I was younger, I used to ride 150 miles a week on a road bike. Here in Las Vegas, there's no such thing as flat road so it's a work out. Anyway, all the best wishes on your exercise program and keep the vlog coming.

    Man, you are all over the place with this video and it’s great! I recently ditched the stock muffler on my f150 for a magnaflow and it sounds great. Not terribly loud but more rumble. I left the stock resonator on because I’ve made the mistake of removing them in the past and ended up with a horrible droning on the highway. Now after looking inside of the one on your truck, i wonder if i should lose the stock resonator and go with something less restrictive. I guess theres only one way to find out! I’m jealous of the great mountain bike trails you have too. I’m just trying to get out and hike more since we don’t have many bike trails.

    Having the DRW likely saps some power from what others may post up with their respective dyno sheets. The transmission may be different as well. All 7.3's might have the same, but being a 350 DRW I wonder if they gave it the same internals as the 6.7 trans.

    You should tune it. You’d love it!!! I’ve got a 21 E350 super duty cutaway with a KUV body on mine. Bought an Sct tuner and went to 5 Star Tuning for 2 different tunes. Josh Newman is the man!!! My truck runs soooo much better than factory!!! Got a 87 Daily tow and a 93 daily tow - big difference between the two. Love both but I get better mileage with the 87. Can return to factory if it needs to go back to the dealership. My horse power, torque and fuel mileage all increased drastically not to mention my speed limiter is gone😊. Food for thought.

    I really want to uncork my 5.0 a bit but I think F-150s have pretty straight through mufflers already. That and I don’t want too much sound when towing, especially for a sustained mountain grade. Kinda like the silent exhaust for that situation (or decel on the way down).

    I currently have a 2016 F150 5.0 Supercab 8’ bed and the heavy duty payload package. It’s been a great truck but I often find myself towing more than 10k pounds these days and a newer F350 SRW with the 7.3 Godzilla is my ideal choice.
