K everyone i need to know what motors came in the F-series (not worried about the dieasels here) from 1980 through 1986, i also need to know when the fuel injection came in and on what motors.

this is for a isi (science) project i will be doing.



82' Flareside: zoom zoom doesn't even begin to describe it

Soon to have 325hp 351 Clevo

Ok, here goes,
1980 & 1981:
F100: 300 I-6 and 302
F150: 300 I-6 and 302, 351M&W, 400
F250: 300 I-6 and 351M&W, 400(might have been 302 and 460 also, bit foggy on that, my 80 owners manual is in the 80)
F350: 300 I-6 and 351M&W, 400 and 460(460 was 1980 only)
The M was only used until they ran out of 'em
1982:
F100: 232 V6(3.8) 255 V8, 300 I-6, 302
F150: 300 I-6, 302, 351W
F250: 300 I-6, 302(LD F250 only), 351W
F350: 300 I-6, 351W
1983:
F100: 232, 300, 302
F150: 300, 302, 351W
F250: 300, 302(LD F250,) 351W, and, 460(iffy there, if so, HD F250 only)
F351: 300, 351W, 460
1984-86:
The F100 was dropped at the end of 83.
F150: 300, 302, 351W
F250: 300, 302(LD F350) 351W and 460(iffy, if so, HD F250 only)
F350: 300, 351W, 460

Hope that helps.

>F250: 300, 302(LD F350) 351W and 460(iffy, if so, HD F250

86 f250 came w/460, i know of at least one (see sig)

how do i tell if my truck is a "HD"?

F-250 LD's were only available with the 300, 302, and 351W. If you have a 460, it's an HD. Another way to tell is HD's have full floating rear axles, LD's don't. This was true in 1986, probably the same other years.

"1982:
F100: 232 V6(3.8) 255 V8, 300 I-6, 302
F150: 300 I-6, 302, 351W
F250: 300 I-6, 302 (LD F250 only), 351W
F350: 300 I-6, 351W"

I'm sure something bigger than the 351W was offered. I don't know if this is right, but I thought the 460 was always offered (4x2 only until the 351M and 400 died). The 351M and 400 were both discontinued at the same time around 1982.

When I swapped a 351w into my 1980 f150 4x4, I found out they didn't offer the 351w till around 82 or 83. Apparently they only offered the 351m in 80.

 

I have an '81 F250 with a 351w. The owners manual lists both 351M and 351w available that year. The largest displacement listed in the '81 manual is the 400.

evan you missed the 232 3.8l for the 81 f100 and they used the 351m during 1982
Rod
faster than any heartbeat
69 f100 lwb 360 3speed 9inw 3.25 gears
82 f100 short stepside 300l6 4speed overdrive

 

I'll have to dig up a factory 81 manual, some 1981 ads, or an 81 with the 232, but, I'm pretty sure the 3.8 was only in trucks in 82 and 83. I do far too much research about these old trucks....

Thanks, that helps a lot. That will save me some time. Correct me if I'm wrong but weren't the 300, 302, 351, and 460 the only truck motors that ford put fuel injection on?

P.S. I need to know what years fuel injection was introduced on those motors listed above. This is very important.

Yup, they'd be teh only ones that got EFI. The 302 went EFI in late 85, the 300 in 87, and the 351W and 460 in 88 or 89.

According to Kelly Blue Book, the 81 F100 was offered with 300,302,351w,351m,400... I've only seen one 81 F100 and it was six powered (mine) and only one other 80's F100 (83) and that had an EFI 302 (obviously not stock).

I think that the 351w and 460 had efi in 87 when ford remodeled the F series.(i know they were efi by 88 cause my dad has a 88 351w efi)

No, the 351W and 460 definatley did not go EFI in 87, I have popular mechanics articles here to prove it :-)

1988 was the first year of EFI for the 351W and 460.

You guys missed the fact that the f-350 had the 400 option in 1982
