The 300 was originally a stationary engine, then it was modified for truck use and used all the way to f700, its a real truck engine. It doesnt turn high rpms at all so dont push it. and it may go slow but it will always go, no matter how much weight you have behind it.
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
