The neighbor just pulled in 1993 f150 4x4 that was tboned and is parting it out. 120k miles runs good. I pulled it off the trailer with the bronco but It still ran good on the 3 wheels it has left. I think I could get it really cheap just wondering if some 302s are better then others for transplanting into an EB.
Thanks

Re: Best fuel injected 302?
So it has been FAR too many weeks since I dropped my engine off, and I suspect that the guy that was working on my engine has run out of ideas on how to get it running but is afraid to call me!
With that in mind, if I have to find a new engine for the 75DBE, any suggestions on what to look for. I should have bout AIRBURS 302 when it was available! Anyways, anyone have any quick thoughts on what I should throw in there? I'd like the horsepower of a 351 and all the rest, but I need reliability most of all. Everyone talks about an EFI engine, but which one? The 96 Explored EFI 5.0 will just drop right in -- relatively speaking? :-)
Help!
