You have to be Careful with the V8's and the reason is as follows. Ford USA stopped building the 5.0L 'Windsor' V8, so Ford AUS bought as many as they could so they could continue to offer it on the AU Falcons. Whilst in Storage for so long, some of these engines developed a little rust is the cylinder linings and the worse ones had to be honed out. Once this was done, these became the better engines! But those that didn't undergo this procedure didn't quite go the same. So test drive a few and you will no doubt feel quite a difference between a good example and a bad one. Obviously, buy the one with more go.
