Before buying a f#*d with poorstroke please open up www.interstat.net/ford/guestbook/guest.html
I found this site too late for a buddy and he bought a 97 f-350 4x4 which has spent plenty of time in the f&$d shop . By the time he had 110K on it he had put 4 water pumps on and the last one cost him $704 installed .On a real good day he can get 17 mpg but it would rather get 12 and it gets bad with a trailer.
At least drive a Dodge before you buy anyones V-8 wanna-be diesel .
