I am not sure what you are asking but I think you want to know where to get a new engine or at least a rebuild kit. Paw performance has a super stock master rebuild kit for your 240. cast pistons $685 forged pistons $726. You can reach them at 818-678-3100. You may be able to get a reman at your local autoparts store for about the same money as a forged kit but you will have cast pistons. Or you could use your 240 as a core and get a 300 not to be sneaky but unless they look up part numbers they probably won't know the difference. And I know for sure you can get a 300 at various autopart stores. Good luck hope this is what you asked

Here is a rebuilt 300 longblock for $1052 (+ $150 core). http://www.ford-motors-engines.com/f...html?make=FORD

If you're interested in maybe an engine besides the 300 (since the 240 is actually more expensive), check out this list. http://www.ford-motors-engines.com/f...n+Pickup&Go=Go

If you have the time to shop around you can get all the rebiuld parts separately and save a few hundered. im not sure exactly what parts to get or where to get them but i Know some parts from other engines may work. such as 351 pistons(you will have two extera but their cheaper than 300 pistons.)
As long as your rebiulding get a 300 crank and rods, and keep the 240 head for a compression and power boost.
