351m...i know, i know


okay, i just bought a 77 f100 ranger xlt shortbed.
rebuilt tranny, supposedly the motor was rebuilt a while back.
it's the stock 351m, c6 combo.
anyway, i can't find any specs on that motor, like hp or tq specs.
i know it's less than the 250hp 351w that's in my 70 lts wagon.

i keep reading there are post that's have info on how to get more power from the m, but i can't find any.

i also read aboue swapping heads, does that apply to the M engine too?

does anyone know a link to a site with any good info, that doesn't cost a lot?

i bought the truck for $100, and i don't want to invest a ton of money into it.

any help is appreciated.

hey million, you know what happened to that truck right, the Flashback Ford?? (the red F150??) The guy got mad because the 400 blew up agian (he said it had blown up twice) He parted the truck out!!!! It is a shame he did it, it is even a greater shame that I didnt have more money so I could buy more of his goodies. I did get the seats though...
