262 engine
So I am in eastern Oregon and need help finding a 262 six engine, due to there being a soft ball size hole in mine. Thanks.
Michael

I have been told the same thing about the 6.0 intercoolers flowing better than the 7.3"s. Down the road [I think], I'll change my 6.0 intercooler for a Banks, it is a good one for a good air flow, Evan

I think you posted in the wrong thread Les.

Michael, I'm sure Don will chime in. He seems to have the hookup on engines in eastern Oregon.

Welcome to the Oregon Chapter Micheal! I just approved your membership!

What part of Eastern Oregon? I live on a ranch 10 miles North of Condon.....

Not many 262's around here. Most ranches bought trucks with Y-Blocks and not the inline 6's. I will keep an eye out for one for ya tho.....

Thanks. I'm starting to figure that out. While at work I keep an eye out for old fords in the pastures. I live in Vale about 16 miles from the idaho boarder.

I am sure Fabman Don has a few extra V8s from 302 to 460 he could part with if you get tired of chasing 262s!
