    Any Ford F-series experts out there?

    I'm looking to get a 9th generation F-series 4x4. I want one of these because it's the last generation that had the Windsor engine. I was wondering if I get an F-150, can it be upgraded to F-250 or 350 specs by simply swapping out axles and springs? Is there such a thing as an F-250 with the...

    KA C90 vs PA-31T vs C425

    Thielert Centurion 2.0L engines.

    It's my understanding that when these engines (on the DA-42) hour out, they are yanked and replaced because the company went bankrupt and the engines are no longer supported. They are replacing them with AE 300. I was wondering if you could obtain a couple of these engines and use them on an...
