Hard Times...looking for help.
So I just got a customer/personal friend that has a 85 Ford F-250 that has a blown 351W. Him and his family have been friends of mine for about 15 years! So my friend with this truck had lost his job 2 and half years ago and has had a hard time finding work and supporting his family. So I was wondering if anyone had a good useful 351w that they would be willing to donate to my friend and his pickup? I am donating my labor and some other stuff (christmas presents for his kids) to help him and his family out... Any thoughts or feedback is most welcome!
Thanks

Thanks for all the kind words everyone! I really dont deserve it as, Im just helping a friend out. I honestly thought I would not get this kind of response to this thread but it really shows that FTE is the best site on the web!
Osiyo59, keep me posted on what you find....as I may need to piece together a engine together. If that was the case I would need: Heads, block, crank, rods/pistons, and oil pan. As the engine thats in it now threw # 5,1 and 8
Mike G, you wouldnt happen to have a good dizzy for a 352 would ya? As I need one for my 66
Again thanks to all!
