Gary Lewis Posted July 28, 2018 Share Posted July 28, 2018 St least it's being narrowed down. Maybe all the carb engines were the same spec wise and I can just say it's an 84... If it came from a car then I don't know when they changed to EFI. But in trucks some went during '87 and the rest went in '88. So, if it is a truck engine, and the pan had to come from a truck, then it is probably '86 or earlier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
85lebaront2 Posted July 29, 2018 Share Posted July 29, 2018 Can't truly confirm it, but Dad's '81 was blue and the '85 I bought had a gray engine. I know Dad's engine was the original, but the 85's might have been replaced. So, some time in the mid-80's is my understanding. Gary, Darth's engine is gray, and so was the 90 F250 engine. The new one is Ford blue, no more Gray Marine colored engines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Blue's is now black, so who knows what it was originally. But Huck, the 1990 F250's engine was gray. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
