it should be a 300. The 240 pretty much went out after the 60's, and the smaller 6's I think stopped at 64 with intro of the 240 and 300. I am pretty confident in saying its a 300 in a 85.
What part of virginia are you in? I might be interested in it myself if it is a carburated engine.
as far as an engine hunt in PA, if you are any where close to Hazelton, place called Harry's (a local u pull it) will probally have a few 300's sitting in there. They pretty cheap, but the possibility of a dud is there. Be good place to pull a core if ya wanna rework it. I dunno what motors going for currently, but tranny's average 40-50. and occasionally they have a cover charge and all parts are a dollar that day

Captain Harveys! (and taking a right over key bridge will take ya swimming LOL< right exit fer left turn LOL. It in Logan Village) I can Almost spit on it from my place.
I am looking to upgrade my 240 to a 300 in near future here, so only looking for the motor. I have a 66 f350 crew cab with the 240 and 4 spd granny. Upgrading to 4spd OD, PS, and possibly AC, and the extra few cubes will make quite a difference if I add all that stuff. Would go V8 but getting 16-20 mpg and never get that from a FE LOL.
