To Update:I got the Ford 4.2L (it was from a different wrecking yard though) in and running with no out of body test run. It seems to be performing well, although there's a problem with oil pressure...

I own a '93 f-150 4.9L. It's coming up to 230K and really needs a complete rebuild. No time and No money for it right now. But,Now what I've done is went a bought the Grandson a '97 f150 V-6 4.2L...
