I was just looking at the 4.6 and 5.4 modular page thank god we don't have all the problems with spark plugs and such. I will take the external lubriction and having to measure milage by gallons per mile.

 

Both of which can be solved. What have you got?

 

These ol' beasts do have their advantages. I can stand in the engine bay, change my oil without jacks or laying down, pull the engine in 20 min by myself, and my registration is $42/year.

I had a 5.4 for a little while. when they told me it would cost like $300 to repair one failed plug/coil.....I decided an old truck might be OK....

4 years and $30k later.....Iv'e got an old truck that's still in the shop....:-)

what was I trying to say?

 

Hot Damn Scoot..you pay $42 a year?? LOL !! I put Antique Tags on the 70 and it was a one time fee of $10 here in VA, No more safety inspections, no more tags, no more County stickers, and If I wanted..it would NOT even require Insurance!!

The Only down side is, I'am limited to a 250 mile radius of my home, and I cant use it as a daily driver.. By law here that means..it has to be off the road at least one day Of the week Monday thru friday!!
