Ok thank all of you for the reassurance I'll double check the oil levels prolly put some synthetic 75-90 in her but I guess I'll keep the ol 7 1/4 for now

the motor is a decent slant it is cammed and 9-1 desktop dyno says 190hp and 248ftlbs is that gonna be too much with the towing? or should i just bite the bullet and find a ford 8" from a maverick(i know i know its a ford part but it is good axle)

oh and the other main reason for wanting e85 is 91 octane is currently 3.59 and e 85 is 3.19
