It is interesting to note that both sites are in the same ball park if not on the money in some cases. Surprising to see that there is not as much difference between the 429/469 and the FEs as I remembered.

Triumph site lists a Ford 255 V8 Windsor. Interesting I just saw that listed for one year on the F150 in the early 1980's.
I will go with the I6 170-250 at 385 lbs and the I6 240-300 at 473. It makes more sense since the 240-300 is a "big block" six.
Thanks everybody. P.S. Pit Electric also gives engine dimensions and other data.
