No problem. The engines were in a white f150 at the end of one of the isles when you walk in and then a red bronco and a green eddie bauer a couple rows over. They also had one in a van way in back too but good luck getting it out of one of those vehicles. I think they made the body around the engine on those. The red bronco's seem the best, the bronco took a good hit to the drivers side so it may still run. [ December 20, 2010, 02:21 AM: Message edited by: Secnd2nun64 ]

I still have the pictures in my phone. The van was a 1993, the green bronco was a 1993, the red bronco was a 1995 and the white pickup was a 1993 F250. These all were the 5.8L so they should have the F4te roller blocks in them. You'd need to check the 1993 models but they should at least be roller ready blocks. Definitely that 1995 one should be a roller based on the year made.
They all had digital spedometers but I found some oil change stickers on some. The red one had a oil change 9/28/10 @178,643 miles.
That van engine had 198,750 miles back in 2000!
The guy that I bought mine from had two roller block 351w's and probably still has the other but will need a rebuild. They're on craigslist under a pontiac listing. Just scroll down. He wanted around $250 I think. The one left is a E4te or something like that. Wasn't sure on it at the time so I passed on that one.
Good luck and brings some rubber boots, that place is probably a mud pit right now.
