Default F-150 Block Question

Hey guys, First post here. Just have a quick question that I'm sure someone will be able to answer. I am getting ready to build up a 331 stroker short block and just came across a 93 - 94 F-150 longblock that I can pick up for $75. I was told it is a standard bore block and it had low compression - that's why they pulled it. One thing I didn't think to ask is if it was a roller block. Can anyone tell me if this is correct? I'm planning to pick it up tomorrow, so hopefully you will have good news for me!

Travis

Go for it especially if you are going to be making a 331.

That's the plan... So this is a roller block, right? I kind of figured that all of the late model blocks would be, but came across a post that was talking about a late 80's lincoln or something that wasn't rollerized.

Hopefully I will be able to sell some of the parts I don't need off of the longblock (lower intake manifold, heads, oil pan, etc.) and make my money back from what I spent on the block.
