All '86+ blocks are "roller ready"....... just look at the casting number by the area of the starter, and if it starts with E5, E6, E7, Fx..... are all roller ready blocks. All Explorer/Mountaineer 5.0L blocks are roller.

87-up Mark VII Lincolns are also roller cam HO engines.
85 1/2to 95Mustangs are roller as well.
87-92 have Forged pistons. 93-up are hyper.
