Sitting here Sunday afternoon....football on tv, wife attempting to issue out honey-do's, and what do I do....go out pop hood on the excursion and my f350, look around not planning on anything in particular. Just putting in my mind my list of "things I wanna do but dont have the money list", and popped in to my head just for in the future (hopefully, not near future), a engine replacement.....

So, I sneak back into the house hoping wife doesn't see me , and looking around for long blocks pricing etc...and was just curious if/when I ever need a engine, who would you guys recommend for a long block...

 

Clay at Riffraff. He has a good price on the 7.3 longblock with forged rods.

 

You can get a remanned long block from Ford.

7.3 Long Block 1999.5-2003 (50 State)
P/N: XC3Z-6006-AARM

 

i'd take the first 300 buks, and buy a tv for the mancave. So times/days like this, you can be hanging out, and throwing a wrench on the ground, from time to time, tricking the wifey?
