I did find a short 24' 350 based unit with a V10. Would it pull the jeep better than say a 29' unit with V10? We're used to a V10 Dodge Magnum 2500 that pulled that trailer like a cheetah with it's tail on fire! Have a feeling we're just gonna have to get used to a Ford from the sounds of it. Will try to test drive a couple. Problem is we have to travel quite a ways to do so. That's why I'm trying to get some info before we decide which ones to make the trips for. The only As I could find were in the 32' range and I think that's too long for mountain curves where we go.
I looked online and they said 89 first year for FI on 460. So the years I'm looking at should be ok without major overhaul. I don't think we want to get that involved with a mechanical overhaul.
