They started putting roller motors in ford pickups in 92 so you already have one.

Roller blocks were introduced 88 in the pickups so even if it isnt a roller motor it can be, but im almost positive it was 92 that they began producing ford trucks with the roller cams.

FYI.. A "roller motor" uses roller lifters on a machined steel cam instead of flat lifters on a cast cam, it's got nothing to do with bearings which are the same for both motors.
