Ok, I'm new here, so I'll make this short. I just bought a '64 F-100 with what I'm assuming to be the original 292 Y. I bought it locally and I'm friends with one of the gentlemen who helped rebuild this engine several years ago, although I didn't know the owner before buying the truck.

Neither one of them knows exactly what they put into this engine, and it didn't run when I bought it. It had old gas and a VERY dirty carb. It now runs pretty good except I think it needs a new carb. According to the previous owner, he didn't put more than 200-300 miles on it before parking it, so it's a fresh rebuild.

My big question is: Is this engine, in good running order, worth anything? I'm actually thinking of selling it and the 3-speed and putting in a Windsor/C-4 combo. I know, I know...you're all Y-block fans and probably can't figure out why I would do such a thing, but the fact is, I'm still considering it.

Can anyone tell me what I might be able to get for it?

Thanks,
ScottRod
