4.9 has just as much get up and go/hualing power as a 5.0 or 5.8 does in my opinion my 96 with the 4.9 pulls just as hard as my 88 did with the 5.8 in it and gets 17mpg where the 88 got 8

straight six's are all low end grunt, great for hauling and towing. and they're seriously the best option for a "work motor" besides a 460 or diesel. they run forever and parts are cheap for the crap that does go out on them, which is usually just general wear items like coils and distributor caps. the 351's and 302's are good motors but they make their power at higher rpms and get less mileage.

Well I wouldve used wad rather than tard and used "smegma burger" in there somewhere but yeah, pretty good. A- overall.
It wouldve been a solid B+ but you received bonus points for posting in an opioid enduced haze.

Yeah, afterall, we are dealing with a section of the forum where a thread titled "Know what I hate?" gets more traffic than anything truck related... so dont take anything personally..
