SubSonic Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Hello all. My name's Ian and I'm from SE Texas. I got my truck last July and have been restoring it since then. I plan to drop a stroked 351W into it as soon as I can. It's a 1980 F350 SRW Camper Special. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Lewis Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Welcome, Ian! Glad you joined. SE Tejas? IIRC, when you cross the bridge coming out of Houston you cross the "Old & Lost Rivers". Never understood how you could lose a river. Anyway, we could put you on our map (Bullnose Forum/Member's Map on the menu) if you'd give me a city closer than "SE Texas". But, not an address.

I believe they call it that because it was once part of the Trinity. I am North of Houston in Conroe, TX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I do know where Conroe is as I used to live in Katy and we traveled through there many times on I-45. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SubSonic Posted April 9, 2022 Author Share Posted April 9, 2022 What's in it now? Previous owner put in a 351W from a late 80s Bronco. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArdWrknTrk Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 Previous owner put in a 351W from a late 80s Bronco. Interesting choice for a 350, when it would have come with an 351M or 400 using the big pattern bellhousing. That's where I was going. Inquiring as to which transmission you were using. But, fortunately it's already done! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
