Newbie Question
Hi guys,
I am actually posting this question for a computer illiterate friend. He has a 1995 F-250 w/ a 460. He uses the truck mainly to tow his 24' enclosed work trailer. the current motor has over 130k miles on it and is getting pretty tired. It is still getting the job done, but eventually it he is going to need to replace it.
He wants to find another motor to "rebuild", but is having a hard time finding a suitable block.
My question is, does the block have to be from the same year range as the current one? Or would a block from an earlier model year work?
Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks....

Thanks for your response.
