They didn’t change to the 351w firing order for the roller 5.0 until 94 except for the HO 5.0 🙂 A guy can also pull and measure a single pushrod to determine if it’s a roller - since the roller pushrod will be shorter due to the taller roller lifter. The roller pushrod measures 6.250 in stock form. Good coverage over the Windsor series - your dad here just had to add some points 🙂 Thunderhead289

@@JunkyardDigs That's an awesome find ya got for yourself. I hope that you end up restoring it cuz there just ain't enough of them Broncos on the road anymore. The 302's are nice and all, but I would've preferred to see it with a 351 Windsor due to my own experiences with those motors. I had an '85 F250 with the 351. Bought it with 175k miles on it and sold it many years later with 325k miles on it. It was still smokin the tires by that time and was one of the most reliable engines I've ever had in a vehicle, though the 5.9L 360 Dodge motor that's in my 2000 Durango is givin it a run for it's money. :)

Interestingly they use a different president upon each denomination from the likes of Lincoln to Ben Franklin , frustratingly they for some reason insist on cutting all the notes to the same size no matter the denomination causing issue to blind people all across the country, it was suggested that the notes upon reissue (to save money) could have been resized but apparent public outcry had to be avoided.

Can confirm the AZ interior is always a disaster, plastic especially.

Welcome to the world of the pack rat. What you found is entirely common. I parked my Power Wagon for six months while I was deployed to Japan. When I came home, my engine was valve cover to valve cover with a pack rat's nest. Nothing but seed pods, twigs, bits of cactus and chewed wires. Nice find on the Bronco though. Heck of a score!
