Need opinions! 1992 F-150 xlt
i've been leaning more to making it a street truck with a cammed 302, nothing flashy but a decent cam that sounds good. not really looking for a whole lot of power, just reliable and budget friendly. i like doing projects on a budget if i can just get myself some more spare time and motivation
your year model truck probably has a aode which doesnt have a throttle kickdown cable. the aod received electronic controls in '91. you would have to get a stand alone control unit for your transmission to work properly. i'd just go to the junkyard pull the parts you need and keep it FI. can be easily done on a budget and save up and slowly build a street motor. i swapped out my 302 for a low mileage 351 for no more than 800 bucks.

and x2 with keeping FI, a donor truck with a good engine and trans will make an easy swap and you'll have everything you'll need so thats what i would do.
the aod was put in the f150 up til 93 then in 94 they put the aode in them. my 93 still has the aod, i originally thought it was the aode but.... nope, its an aod. a stock 351 will tear an aod apart pretty quick if you ever decide to play around, thats why the 351 got the c6 and e40d
it's just an aod, i guess when it warms back up and i get the cash saved up i'll try to just find an efi engine....i'm not too far away from a pull-a-part so i can get the efi parts when i go
