Never had a Ford truck with an IH engine myself... and I don't want one personally. I know several people who did have them. One had excellent service from his and put over 400000 KM of heavy hauling on it. The rest used them for runabouts... and I don't think there was a good one among them.

I'd stay with the windsor. At that time the Cummins was the best engine available in a truck, and still is as far as I'm concerned.
