Yeah! Winters in Buffalo are brutal! I used to reside in Lockport, about 25 minutes north. Hope you like the snow

Then the torpedo heater ran outta kerosene and couldn't find a station with any and when i finally did they had already shut it down for the night

good luck. i tried doing that on my tow truck and found it much easier just to bolt a powerstroke in so everything plugged into each other

well in 94 ford still had the idi so the connectors should be the same. although the cab came off a powerstroke. i'd like to speak to you more on the idi to powerstroke switch

i went from a 90 cab with a 460 to a 97 cab with a pwerstroke nothing was even close. but on a 94 it might be alot easier with the newer cab already having the right wiring connectors. if the connectors plug into each other itll be alot easier. mine wouldnt even plug in so it was just easier to swap everything out
