Lloyd, so, you are saying that the engine is not worth that much?
Could I get $2k for it?

No, no! That engine is the workhorse motor for trucks in that class, and
for some of the older 80s-early90s Ford 350 dualies. Every U-Haul JH
truck on the road had one for at least 15 years when I was renting them a
lot. It's a great, strong, long-lasting motor.

BUT that mileage sounds Real Low for a truck that age. I'd track down
the original owners and ask if it's always been run Locally 5 miles
out and back, or been Clocked by the dealer - or it just rolled over
100,000 and only has a 5-digit odometer.

My 1990 F-150 had the 5-digit odo and Ford phased in 6-digits in 1992,
but I don't know if that was a global industry date.
