This 1962 Ford truck called “Django” was built by Weaver Customs for the Detroit Autorama 2015. The truck features a 1997 Cummins 5.9 L diesel inline-six capable of producing 1,000 horsepower and 2,000 ft-lb of torque. The power is created thanks to 100 psi of boost from a BorgWarner S400 and S500 turbochargers and a Bosch P7100 13 mm injection pump. The engine has runs a nitrous system just in case you need some extra power. The drivetrain consists of a full manual 47RH transmission and norrowed Ford 9-inch rear end with 3.55 gears. The truck rides on a custom 4-link rear suspension with RideTech double-adjustable coilovers and Wilwood 14-inch drilled and slotted brakes.
