1970 F-500 engine
I'm looking at buying a 1970 F-500 bus next week. It has a v8 and a 4 speed manual, the engine smokes so we're going to rebuild it. Any ideas as to what kind of engine it might be? The bus itself is small, about 20 feet long (I don't know if that would limit the engine availability). Also, what other engines would bolt up to that transmission?
Thanks,
Chris

Is there any way to determine what kind of engine it is? i.e. casting numbers or a visual difference between the engines? Also, is it worth rebuilding the engine? I'm going to be towing about 6,000 pounds with it - any idea if it would be powerful enough?
