collect on the warranty first that will give you a fresh 302 to sell or trade for a 351. Have you thought about 460/ZF combo ? just a thought

For a Ford Reman 5.8 long block it is 2308.00 exchange.

2210.00 for a 5.0

These are Ford dealer prices in the Mid-South

Reman 5.0 = $1914.56

GL!

Thanks guys! and thanxs meisk for the info i will look into that. My idea is to get a 96 351w with the roller block upgrade the cam and heads in that and get a hypertech chip. Those with the 4.56 gears i aldready have should make a beast. My question is I know i can use my old harness for a 95 351, but what about a 96 351w?
