Big F350 It is great to see the Australian Economy is booming because when I was there in 1969 the wages were half of Canadas and the Cars were 4 times as much. I was a union Ironworker which was the highest pay without being a trademan and If someone would have given me a car I wouldn't have been able to run it on my wages. The majority of guys in the plant did not own a car or a fridge or their own home, and when I told them my Dad was a tradesman, owned his own house, had owned a fridge before I was born in 1950 and had always had two vehicles, the standard comment was " sounds like your old man is a bank robber , kid " LOL . The funny thing was they all kept saying Austalia has the highest standard of living in the world. I would say , You have the nicest Country in the world, we freeze our *** off in Canada, but we make more money. It sounds like the worm has turned and I know a lot of Australians that moved here years ago are moving back. Take care, Wrenchtraveller.

Trust me fellows BigF350 can afford to play...seems he works real hard too so he deserves to play with real cool stuff.

I suspect he may be one of our experimenting friends if he ever gets his hands on a 3 valve V10 to make go fast... then we all will be truly jealous..

PS BigF350 is not the pooper scooper on the BIG ranch!

Sometimes it feels that way though...
Everytime I go home, the septic tank is broken, or they need to crutch sheep, or something...
It doesn't worry me, I enjoy hard work, but it is rather convenient that these kind of jobs always come up when I go home... hmmm... Dad???

I was going to import a V10 here and see what its potential is, but it was going to be too expensive.
Oh well, one day.

You just posted in a thread from 2005 and posted in the v10 section with out specifying anything about your vehicle other than it has a 5.4 that apparently no longer runs. The answer is no 2003 was a 2 valve engine and 2005 was a 3 valve if you a have a f150 that switch happened in 04 if your have a super duty it was in 05. At the top of the page under forums find the section that corresponds to your vehicle and start a new thread with your questions.
