NO! They were 305's installed sometime in the 1980's. All the local junk yards were out of cheap Chevy small blocks. The C50 probably came with a 350 which blew up because of over-reving, as did all the 305's because they were cheaper than 350's. No tach in the C50 like all the larger medium duties I drove. The box on the truck was just long enough for four 40x48 4-way pallets to sit on the floor, roof was so low I couldn't stand up straight inside the box. I normally drove their semi, a Ford F-700 single axle tractor with 8.2L V-8 Detroit, yes, those engines really ARE as bad as people say! Then there was the 1970-something IH FleetStar with 478 V-8 gas engine, even drove a borrowed 1960's vintage KW tiltcab twinscrew with 238 Detroit. NOT the best truck to pedal freight out of. Pulled a 45 ft roll-up door trailer.
