He's wrong.....

'79-'84 = sand cast aluminum
'85-'92 = forged aluminum
'93+ = hypereutectic aluminum (damn emissions)

no one is wrong, I simply want to know if I buy this 5.0 NON H.O from this dude, Is all i have to do is switch out cams? or change wires to get the firing order right or do i also need to mess with the injector sequence ,and I know it doesnt have forged pistons,but at least it has roller rockers...

that guy is saying that if it is a engine from a mid to early 90's ford truck with roller rockers (it is luckily), all u need to do is switch cams, and accessory bracket....really? if so, tight!
