If it was closer and I had the money it would be fun to buy it and blow up the motor.

So I have to wonder what works and what doesn't. Does it have working cruise? Working air bag? Working gauges? Anything else that the factory ecu used to control? I know withe the Cummins Swap, there's always issues with items that used to work that don't. Of course, if your looking to drag race or pull houses, I guess it may not matter.

From my experience in mating ford and chevy stuff together the gauges would still work on the f150 because the way the Spedo works its on the rear diff. the guel gauge and tack and temp its easy to splice it in. so would all work, the drive shaft would have to be custom and im sure the motor mounts trans mouts ect

but honestly it would have been much easier to drop in a 429 or a ford big block lol

I really doubt they left the stock diff with the speed sensor. Maybe....

It sure is clean though.

TheCollector

its a carbed job so no its not controlled by the ecu im sure he has redone the lines to low pressure with a manual fuel pump, the sending unit should still be able to read the fuel levels though

why not? its a 454 and drag racers use the 8.8 rear ends all the time LOL

True. I don't think my fiance' would let me call it an everyday driver. Lol....drive to the gas station and home.

TheCollector

yeah daily drivers a bit much 454s are notorious for blowing at high revs so if they left the stock diff in you might have to buy a new engine soon lol

I seen this on Craigslist and just laughed my *** off, and its just a few towns over, I am tempted to call the guy up just to see it close up and actually see if it works well or not. My guess is it does not work well for that guy considering hes trading/selling it for an ATV or family car...

Rusty but trusty

I like it. That's hot rodding/left lane kind of stuff. Muscle trucks are not my thing but..... I get it. He probably made work what he owned. 454 is a great truck engine.

Nothing wrong with 454s. We had a 94 chevy with a 454, sucker was a beast. As long as you can deal with 7-8 Mpgs.
