Yup got a 5.0 in it now. Figure it works for now and at $60, I couldn't pass it up. Plus if I swap to a 4.6 3v or a terminator the 5.0 can go in something else, hmm.
FYI... the aftermarket offers parts to retrofit kit (spider, hardware, etc.) for early SBFs.
True story. So does Ford Racing Performace Parts (FRPP). AKA Ford Motorsports.
M6253A50....roller cam conversion kit.
M6500T58....roller lifters for "non-roller" blocks
I'm told the motor came out of a 94-96 bronco.
Has iron heads (not gt40/p) which will go away when I build the engine.
I'm considering a 351. In the parts book from ford racing is says:
Also fits 1994-1997 351W with factory roller cam when used with mass air EFI.
I picked up the cam super cheap and couldn't pass up the deal.
Still debating the engine but I'm swapping in a 4r70w/4r75w for sure.
Time and cash will tell.
