The V10 swap was pretty challenging. I had to almost completely redo the wiring and the driveline... and then I burned up a 4R100 transmission in the first 5 miles!!! (oops)
The front suspension also needed some modification and I had to custom make a few parts here and there.
Overall, I think it would be a very manageable project if you worked on it slowly. I use my truck for work and it is my only vehicle, so my V10 swap made for about two week's worth of eighteen hour days. It was sure worth it though!

wow that is one of the most different trucks I have seen on this forum.... and I love it I didn't know that they made the f250 LDs in a single cab, but the engine swap sounds badass, and I like the winch bumper and the cab lights!

Thanks for the comment, that V10's putting out about 680HP and 900ish ft lbs of torque in case you wanted to know.
