I thought about that myself originally seeing as I had a Chevy 2.8. But didn't due to funds. There's a couple good members here at CF that have done so. ktmracer419, 4.3lxj and SeriousOffroad. Im sure if you decide on a swap, they'd be glad to awnser your questions.

Yes. The one who was my supervisor when working for the Army Corps (There are people from all branches there) wants me to go back and help over see a few Army crews on some projects. He was AF.

I'd rather go with the 302 small block that ford makes. My dads rebuilt the same engine three times and I was there with him on the last rebuild and I loved it. He slapped it in a 71 f100 aluminum flatbed custom that runs duallys and burns the tires off lol
