Bought "72" F-100 Ranger Sport Custom 3 yrs ago from body and fender nut the exterior is still in awsome shape, but need new motor! I want to replace
the existing 390 with either a 351 w or 305. Want lots of chrome and detail but the end result is this. I want to
put this motor on an engine stand and add to it gradually, then put in in. I don't know what I can get away with emissions wise. North Carolina has no emissons requirements for "75" or later, but they will still look for factory installed emissions sheet metal, and tubing. This truck will eventually be in the possestion of a 19 yr old Marine who sorely needs new
transportation. He has $5000 burning a hole in his pocket. And I'm trying to convince him that putting the money into the truck would be more to his benifit than going out and buying a new or new/used car!! Would love to take the long block and bolt on headers, electronic ignition system, different intake and carb set
up nothing more nothing less. Can I get some advice up in here!
