bad news...
so my dad had a good look at the 94 f-150 i just bought recently since i noticed if it sat for a good couple days it would smoke black for a bit after start up... so he figured it was the valve seals but he cut open the oil filter and theres metal shavings galore... theres also a knock but thicker oil might fix that apperently but he said we probably are gonna have to rip it apart and possibly rebuild it....
opinions?
i think if its gonna happen i should invest in some performance items / machineing work while we are at it

oh 220 isn't that bed, i thought more. have you changed the PCV valve?? run some seafoam through her before you get too excited?? might not be as bad as we think.

Sure copy me! (sarcastic) 
I'm going to for unique and all I get is wannabes. 
I will have enough power to beat Sherm's truck in speed and strength categories. Those airbags won't save you.
