Engine Upgrade Questions....
I just built a 95 351W roller for my 93 F350. The short block is stock, the cam is the 351 HO and the heads are windsor jr topped of with full roller rockers... everything else is stock. Do I need to change to mass air or not... Is there a chip I can do.. Or does someone want to buy it for what I have in it so I can do the simple thing and convert to a diesel....

Minus changing over to the roller set-up, I just finished the same thing you did before I came down here to Afghanistan. Anyhow I still run the same set-up for air induction. I do run the Diablo chip with many smiles because of it. Also I can have it reprogramed to accentuate any other mods I have done to the truck as well. It does sound like you built it more for a car though, with all those top end performance parts. I stuck with a bottom end cam, but heads for more bottom end ( I offroad and the truck rarely sees over 3500) thats why I skipped the roller set-up. I will ask around, but being here and living in Germany make it hard to get pre-built engines in (well not to hard just expensive). I was thinking about the 396 stroker Ford Racing builds. The short block is like $3600. Anyhow go to a junkyard and pluck a diesel from a wrecked truck. That would be a great way to start plus you would still have your truck running until you get the diesel done up and ready to roll with wiring harness/computer and all.
