This truck sits at a branch of my bank and is owned by a pretty little gal who is a teller there. It's a 7.3 also.
I actually just replaced a 300 in an 85 f150 4x4 over the last couple weeks. That 300 is an amazing engine especially for a ford. They actually remind me a lot of the Industrial engines I build. The thing I hate the most about this generation of ford is the twin torsion beam front axle that some of them had. They really don’t look too bad, but that axle is not my favorite. I will say after doing that engine swap I fell in love with the mother GM of old all over again. My Chevy is easier to work on.
