@xmodrock i didn't want to change anything else, just a straight forward swap. besides that truck has the granny 4 speed manual so don't really need anything more than a 300
@4x4Husky i suppose thats a good enough reason :-P i was just curious.. cause if im going through alot of work like taking out and engine i want something more
I didn't think those inline 6 engines were capable of knocking. Maybe you didn't tow enough weight, the truck gets pissed when you are not using it as a truck.
Right now I've got a 76 f150 4wd with a 390 and a 77 f150 4wd w/ 351W. I want to put the 390 in the 77 and I think it will fit except I might have to change the motor mounts along with the perches. Can't tell till I get them both out and see if it fits. Found a lot of good info doing a google search.
I wish I had done a time lapse like that when I did my V8 to V10 swap!
