4.3L ford engine?

Oh i see, cuz i never really understood the point of getting a car w/ 150k+ on it and throwing like $3k+ into the system. I mean if u can fix cars on ur own its understandable like in my case, but otherwise seems like it might turn into an extremely costly endevour in the future.
