I bought my F250 in north FL and had been told it came from CA. the truck DSO says it was sold in WA. While it was in CA, it apparently had a 360 swapped in with a BAR sticker on the door jamb under the Ford cert decal. Is there a link so that I could find out the info about the swap and what the codes are on the BAR sticker?

 

I know of no such link. Wouldn't know why they would need a BAR sticker for an engine swap either.

for a while in the 80's and 90's, when you replaced an engine, you needed a Ref Station to approve the swap. this didn't necessarily apply to rebuilding the engine, presumably back to stock

 

Interesting. Learn something new every day.

I was born in Cali in Lancaster and raised at Castle AFB from 67-70 + 75-82 and stationed at Beale AFB then lived in Lancaster, Indio, Acton, + Long Beach while working at McDonnell Douglas. Sometimes I miss Ca, then I watch the news

 

My maternal grandfather worked at Mc Donnell Douglas most of his life.

I worked an out-of-position crew on the East and West Ramps on the MD-11 in 90-92

 

I have no clue what my grandfather worked on, he died when I was 10-11 years old, and that was 45 years ago.

Jim

 

My sympathies, my grandfather worked for North American and Rockwell. Ah, the stories we could have heard.
