Selling the motor and trans out of my 1997 F250 HD.

The 351 is a Ford Remanufactured motor with about 30k miles, This is the very desirable F4TE roller block. It DOES NOT LEAK OR BURN OIL. The alternator is a all new 200 AMP unit with 500 miles on it. In the last 1k miles it had a tune up with Taylor ThunderVolt 8.2 Spark Plug Wires, NGK plugs, cap & rotor. I installed new headers on it but used the gaskets in the kit and they did start to leak. It has a new idler pulley and Goodyear Gaterback belt. When i bought the truck it did have cork valve cover gaskets that leaked all over the motor, they have been replaced with the best molded gaskets i could find. The oil and dirt you see on the motor are from when the valve covers leaked. I just added up my receipts for these parts and am over $600.00. I included a pic of the head with the valve cover off to show just how clean this motor is inside. The motor and trans work great, mileage has been 13mpg in the city and 14 highway with 4.10 gears. Motor is very smooth with rock steady idle. Motor comes complete with wiring harness from the firewall to the headlights and all sensors. I also have a lightning computer that was never installed. This computer can be tuned using a chip, EEC-Tuner, or Tweecer, you can change shift patterns, fuel, ignition, just about anything. I will be selling the lightning computer if you are interested, the stock computer comes with the motor.

The E4OD trans is a 97 with all of the latest updates to make the trans stronger and last longer. Since this is a 4wd unit it has the steel planetary, 2wd units use aluminum. The trans has 60k miles and is not a reman but a new ford unit. When i bought the truck i added a Transgo HD2 TRANSMISSION REPROGRAMMING KIT to quicken shifts and increase clutch life. The trans now shift quick and runs much cooler. The shift are never violent but it will chirp the tires going into second if you are at WOT. This truck has always had a large secondary cooler installed and the fluid has never been burnt. I have drained it several times and it is always very clean and bright red. Truck has never been used for plowing. I have all the parts needed to convert this trans to 2wd, something can be worked out.

I did have plans to maybe install a 408 stroker since we just bought a 5th wheel camper but i got a deal on a Powerstroke so im converting it to diesel. Like i said the motor and trans are in excellent shape i take care of my stuff and this truck is very well maintained. For the price of new trucks i cant afford not to take care of mine. The only problems that i am aware of are the bad header gaskets and the A/C compressor seized up this summer.

What you get- Motor, motor wiring harness complete from firewall front, injectors all sensors, Intake system with hoses and filter box, All coolant hoses oil cooler and radiator, stock ECU, all accessories, Y pipe going to 3'' no cat. E4OD trans with deep sump 4/4 pan with drain.

Im asking $2100.00 located near Allentown PA pick up is preferred but im willing to work with you.
