With that Ford engine I'll bet it has unbelievable performance. If you fly it bring a parachute.

Looks interesting. A couple guys here have RVs with car engines. After seeing them I don't think I'd go that route. Do your homework. smile

I must admit that I have some reservations. Not really because it's an automobile engine. But ,more so because it's a Ford! eek

Well, it looks like this guy wants to play games. I emailed him saying I would like to come and look at it next weekend. He just emailed back saying somebody from Canada is coming down next week, and that if I want a chance at it, I needed to come this weekend!

Scratch that deal!!

Bill... the Ford 302 is pretty much a bulletproof engine. Just don't let it get hot. The problem is I have one... and it's a whopping 150hp. My 281 is 220hp...strange.
