    Need some opinions.....

    if its rust free id stay with the 460 truck and have the engine rebuilt. with the spark plug and timing chain problems with the 5.4's id stay away from them. well that's the reason we got a newr f150 that has the new 5.0. cant beat tried and true 460. I wish I never sold my 460 truck
