My 82 F250 4x4 Build help getting started..
Hello to all the Ford lovin hillbillys out there, I am going to be the first one to stand proud and say, "I am not yet a Ford lovin hillbilly, as for I love my Chevy Silverado." But, with that being said....
I broke down... Not my Silverado... It doesnt break down. But "I"broke down when I saw a deal that I felt was unpassable. It was a sight for soar eyes at first look I might admit, but i know a deal when I see one. So I went with my undigested pizza from earlier that afternoon in-my-gut-feeling and Bid on an Quote: how to really love an F250 , Im not calling it UGLY because its a Ford... I am calling it UGLY because its downright bright ass yellow, got a couple good rust areas on the body, the interior looks like its going to make my dog barf, and the motor inside her is deemed "Burnt". But I got it for a $350 bargan deal, WHICH means I at least saw its potential and at last gave it an oppertunity to win spot in my heart full of Chevy. Now. Since I got all that out of the way this is what Im up against. Im figuring that Im going to need a new motor entirely. If such is true, I located one online (not neccesarily the one that I am buying) but for reference, I picked out one that I thought was a generic fit for this truck but my question is what about the 4x4 portion of this truck? Ive never rebuilt any motors so bearwith me here, I am mechanically enclined though and have the drive to learn... I will post all the trucks specs and pictures and then ill also post the specs for the replacement engine. Everyones feedback is very much appreciated as I have to decide that I made a great, or a horribly bad decision on this buy(I have to get it from the Auction location by tomorrow). What all do I need to know or get to make something like a new engine work!? Thanks in advance! https://cimg8.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.f15...52f66a3543.png Specs of 1982 F250 4x4 https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.f15...0b2de16ded.jpg https://cimg0.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.f15...613a8363e4.jpg https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.f15...91375425f8.jpg https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.f15...7ae51b1fda.png This motors website... https://autopartsfair.com/ford-car_e...or_351mlb.html |

You'd be MUCH better-off converting it to EFI. ANY EFI, but I prefer OE (meaning a newer junkyard engine).
