Welcome Jeff123; you have tap into the worlds best FORD Truck enthusuast site ever; I recommend you view the first two post on this forum especially the one by fordboypete; that forum is a READ FIRST post above all other post on the 61-66 forum. I have received so much knowledge and insite involving our trucks and beyond due to such the great folks here @ FTE.
Search our sponsor listing and order a catalog from MAC's Auto; in the past it was free and probably still is. Its a great reference source as well as they help support this site. Additionally view previous post and you'll find numerous info to help you; but the access to individuals with expertise knowledge you won't find nowhere else but here.

Again welcome and if you could post your vin several individuals including they/I could break down the data for you.

Mitch

Hi Jeff, What you have is a 1966 F100 2 Wheel Drive. It came with a 352 cubic inch engine and a 2 barrell carburetor. The engine produced 208 horsepower at 4400 RPM. The truck rolled off the San Jose, California assembly line in June 1966. I think it was something like #4151 for that month.

Hope this is helps....

Just for reference...

F10YR876151

F10 = F100 4x2
Y = 352 FE motor (for 1965-1967)
R = Assembly plant San Jose
876151 = Sequence number corresponding to production date range

The additional information on your tag would tell you wha colors and tranny and axle ratio, as well as motor HP at what rpm.

Welcome aboard!! --Mike

Hello again Jeff, glad you could use my info. I wanted to say that my info is based on what the truck was the day it was produced. I'm not telling you that the engine is for sure a 352. Just what the tag specified from the factory. Lots of these trucks have been through an engine or two by now so theres no telling what one might find under the hood. Maybe you can find someone close by who knows Ford engines really well and will take a look at what you have so you will know for sure.

Life at the parts store will be a lot better if you know what you have. For you and even more so the parts man.....
