5.0 to 5.8 swap?
#41
I'm new to this forum. I am thinking about doing a 5.0 to 5.8 in my 1990 F-150. Can anyone tell me everything I would need to do? and everything to look out for? I know it will bolt right in but is there a certain range year I should look for?

Use the search feature regarding the swap you want. You do need to get the proper flex plate or flywheel because the 302s and 351s cranks have different balance. My advice to make the swap easier is find a donor truck of the same year, that way you have everything you need.
