Thats cool Cory. For the most part I have lucked out with the trucks I have bought. My 85 had the 4.9 under the hood. If I could I wouldnt mind getting another truck with the 4.9 in it.

It is a great motor. never really had much trouble with the one I had.

The 4.9 was a great motor...very torquey...too bad they couldn't get it to keep up with emissions regulations. |
Yeah I liked trhe torque it made. Wasnt the fastest thing out there but it would get the job done when the others couldnt.
|
Very reliable also.

That it was Ken. Never let me down. Did have a c clip in the tranny break once. Had to limp the truck home and call for a tow truck the next day to get it to the tranny shop. That was fun. EVery time I stopped I would have to shut the truck off to get it to go into first gear.

I took one in trade last fall...338K on the motor...customer claimed it had never been apart. It was a standard shift...he said on the 2nd clutch. |
