Congrats.. And awesome build on the F100. Do you have a build thread by chance? Or any additional info you can provide. My dad has an F100 that he'd like to do a swap, and this would be a great drive train in my opinion, I love my raptor
I do have a entire build thread but it's really long mixed with other projects. My YouTube also has full build. Link above for that.

Instead of following a bunch of other threads will post my info here

I was #3 inline of people wanting a 2023 RaptorR at my dealership.
Morning of 7/18 I got a call from my dealer asking if I was ready to order that the order banks were open.
Dealer sent me the order info and within 40 min my order was in knowing full well they had to have a allocation of at least 3 trucks before I would get one. Anxiety through the roof as they had told me they should have allocation by August 1st and would let me know.

Well, yesterday 2:46 pm the dealer called me to say congrats! They have enough allocations for my order to go through.
Still no clue when it will be built so now panic sets in trying to come up with $$.

My order
Code Orange
No Moonroof power gate or block heater
Graphics Delete
MSRP
No deposit
My first deal with owner of dealership was over 30 yrs ago when he came to my house to buy a
1967 Mustang Fastback for his then 16yr old daughter
I know with this dealer a handshake is good.
Ideally after Jan 1st 2023 would be good.

In the mean time I will enjoy my 1966 F100 with 2020 Raptor power and the 10R80

Plan is to do a full blown performance comparison with the RaptorR. On road of course!

2023 RaptorR 5.2 700hp 640tq 5950 lbs

1966 F100 3.5 700hp 700tq 3900 lbs

I will post all updates here:View attachment 365192View attachment 365193View attachment 365194

Few more of undercarriage. It’s total done too. Has all pollution control as a new 2018-20 F150 would have.
Built for long distance cruising it will go 1000 miles on single fuel fill!
20 mpg on E50 and 25 mpg on 91.

At least the heart is all Raptor
Or my street version of a RaptorR
It has a really trick fuel system
If it would hook 3 second range to 60. Stopping I think it will do 60-0 in 100' SuperCar territory.
10 second quarter mile possible again if I could do a boosted launch. 100 mph in 1/8 mi.
It's gotten 31 spline 4340 chromemoly axles to hold the power with a N case diff.
Brakes are 14" 6p from Baer on all 4 corners.

It's setup for a ClassV hitch but I have not installed it yet.
It does have the capless filler too.
