After seeing them I don't think I'd go that route. Do your homework.

Not really because it's an automobile engine. But ,more so because it's a Ford!  Bill Grants Pass, Oregon | | | | Joined: Jan 2004 Posts: 13,969 Member/10,000+ posts! | Member/10,000+ posts! Joined: Jan 2004 Posts: 13,969 | 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!!

My 281 is 220hp...strange.
