Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,878 | Is that about the same as the ford/IH 6 liter in the pickups?
If so then in comparison to the 4BT the 4BT should win for smaller size, weight, and lack of computer.
I'd probably pay for a good 4BT before using a free ford 6 liter in one of my conversions. Not that the 6 liter is all that bad, just not as attractive when considering the whole package.

(which I have a real aversion to) | | | | | Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,878 . | | . Joined: May 2005 Posts: 8,878 | How about size? guessing they are still wider and a little bigger overall than the 4BT?
Are they indirect injected, or direct injected?
Do they have turbos?
