86 150 rebuild
I own an 86 150 4x4 4spd, 300 6 that is due for a rebuild. I havent owned the truck long and im not very familiar with all of the mods for this motor. I would like to convert carbs / intake / exhaust , clutch ... while im rebuilding the motor. I notice that some have done this already and im curious if they have noticed a dramatic increase in power or should i be looking at a 302 or 351 swap to this truck. I use this as a daily driver /toy / hobbie. I do not want a 500 hp ride but i do want more power out of this rebuild. Could someone please post there opinions and some links for 300 performance parts. Also , if i modify the 300 with intake , carb how bad can i expect my mileage to get ? Will a v8 be better? Im getting about 13 mpg now.
Someone had mentioned cliffords intake in an old post but i havent been able to find a link.
Thanks

Howdy Dennis & Welcome to FTE!
Because this is 2 part thread, I'm going to send a copy of it to the Inline Six forum to discuss the engine rebuild & performance questions.
Okay you may follow along there
