Truck motor, methinks.  Truck 302's had that wierd intake.

dual snokrle twin throttle boddies. after I saw the intake I thought it was an inline 6, the I noticed that it was an 8

Intake appears to be too wide for a 5.0, looks like a 351 to me...

Should be a 351. I remember him saying something about it in another post by Bane and his 331 or 351 question.

I'd say 351, but I might be a little biased  I recently picked up a 351.

Yup, 351! It's out of a 95 F250, and supposedly has alittle over 100k. As soon as I get it on a stand I'll get some better pics.

thats the way i went. I hope yours is a roller.
One i had was sopose to be a rollor and when we tore it done it was not.
I went with Crane hydraulic roller lifters and forged pistons witch i just had one fail.
so rebuilding it again

a quick way to tell that it's a 351 is the amount of metal, ie. the deck height, between the head and the bellhousing area on the block...
302 engines are nearly flush, and 351's are like an inch or so above...
that and I could tell that it was out of truck by the intake... :D

Ford begain casting roller 351 blocks in mid '93 for the '94 models, so a '95 block should be roller. If it has a F4....... casting #(near the starter) it's definatly a roller block.

Mine was sopose to be a roller but when we tore it down it was not.
We had it shiped in and the guy said it was so we didn;t care and went with it,
Not till we had intake off did i find out it was not one.
But i dont care as i em better off with the way i went it just cost a bit more LOL

Yeah, it has the F4 casting on it. Took awhile to get it on the stand, been busy with getting things ready for the addition we're putting on the house. I'm hoping to get some wrench time soon so I can get it torn down to send it out to the machine shop. :headbang:
