because you kinda asked me to hijack your thread (lol), yes, 347 stroker, with a m122 on it now. have had the truck for about 14 years around this time and slowly morphed into what it is. the paint happend by chance. i didnt like the ground effects grey and wanted to paint them black. when i pulled them off, i pulled most of the rockers with them. lucky me, by trade i am a bodyman. when i was doing the body at a buddys place, he mentioned another person he knew that can paint true fire. after finding out what he wanted to put flames on it ($250, yes, thats not a typo) he airbrushed the flames on it, and evil was born. the rear bumper/pan was a idea i took from member (who hasnt been active for years) explorersport77 (tara, who i ended up becoming good friends with, talk with her still to this day, and would crash at her place when i used to go to PA for all ford nationals. it is 3 rear bumpers cut, flipped around and welded into one with 1/4 diamond plate as the top filler. it took me a couple of weeks to make that. the thread is in my signature, but all the pictures have vanished for what ever reason. the motor came from another members truck (ford99_1979, brad). i flew out to his place also in canada, and drove it 14 hours home. he knew i would be parting the truck, and he was ok with that. found out the motor was hurt (he didnt know that when i bought it, and to this day have no hard feelings about it either) and had to have it redone. the swap was not hard for me at least. some people it might be over their heads, but if you know how to pull a motor, you have it made. i went one further, and put a 4406 t case into it while doing it because i didnt want AWD. nobody knew if it would fit or not because then, not a lot of people did a 5L sport swap. i want to say i was the first to put a 4406 into a v8 sport, but cant say for 100%. i wont say i am the only one with a v8 stroker sport either. there is another member on here with a 363 in his, and it is a super clean truck as well.
