The Ford 300 was magnificent and used in industry (aircraft tugs, generators, pumps) long after it left truck use. The 4.2 that replaced it is a piece of shit due to hydrolock (never truly fixed!).

I like my Fords for the rest of the truck but I'd like them better with an LS 5.3 and a 4L80e (the 4L60 of course is a POS). My 4.6 is utterly reliable but too small. I like my Silverado for the drivetrain (AFTER beefing the 4L60 but I buy trucks cheap with either bad trans or engine expecting to sort them rather than buying optimistically and waiting for the first major failure). Truck engines do not benefit from overhead camshafts because it's trivial to control valves at street RPM. Trucks are not F1 cars and should be SIMPLE and easily maintained with the most basic equipment.
