And these engines were built to last. They will easily go over 300K if taken care of.

I dont know much about power mods for these engines, iv never needed any more from them. But it might be nice to get even more torque.

I think youll learn to love it in a truck
Good luck
Unless your info is straight from FoMoCo itself, the 240/300 Family of engines was 1st Intro'd in '65 for Sedan's, Trucks, Tractors & Stationary Equipment Simultaneously.
