Happy Holidays All…

I am shopping for a used 1992 – 1997 Econoline 150 conversion van with the 351/5.8L…

I believe that beginning in 1994 the 351/5.8 had a small decrease in HP but had an increase in Torque…

OVER AND ABOVE THAT…

I had read somewhere that for the 1995 ford 351/5.8L… HP and torque had an upgrade…. with further research I have discovered that for model year 1995 ford had used the upgraded 351/5.8L. F150 Lighting engine in some of their vans… A difference in the # 8 position in the VIN number identifies this…

"H" indicates 5.8L 210hp@3600 - 325tq@2800
"R" indicates 5.8L 240hp@4200 - 340tq@3200

Is 1995 the only year that Ford did this..?

Does anyone know what the production numbers were..?

How many of the upgraded Lighting engines found their way into the E150 vs. the standard 351/5.8L...?

Thank you.
