Now that is pretty cool. I remember a guy on FB a few years ago with one of those he "modded" and swore up and down it could outrun a lightning. Now we all know that's BS but still a very cool truck.

How close are you to Evansville, 2100? I have a couple of friends on another forum.... one lives in Evansville, and another not too far from there in Sebree, KY.

My heads I bought are through Tri-State in Evansville.


EDIT: I decided to "test fit" a couple of things on the motor last night. LMR gave me the wrong info on the oil pickup tube..... going to call Ford this morning and see which pickup tube I need to get for this.... the tube they told me to get is for a 302, not a 351. The output flange on the oil pump sits a little skewed on the 351 in comparison. Back the the kitchen.....

My wife and I grew up in Evansville and that's where our parents still live. We visit them quite often (they especially love it with the new grand baby lol) We plan to move back to the area when she's done with her residency. Small world!

A moderator could tell if this is the same guy from his IP address - he doesn't seem smart enough to know how to use vpn or proxy.

Definitely would want the right pickup, since the wrong one could have those unfortunate repercussions lol. Are the pans even the same ?

Pan is not the same as the 302 (351 has larger main caps/bearings). However, I do have the Ford Racing 351 swap pan which is a dual sump style, like the Fox Body OEM pans. I called and had a lengthy conversation with Ford Racing today. Got a really nice guy on the phone, and he gave me the specs they used. For anyone interested, Ford used a production pickup tube from a 79-91 Crown Vic that came with a 351W. The part number is D9AZ-6622-B and crosses to a Melling 83-S1 tube.

Had a pretty fun conversation with him. He confirmed that using the convertible motor mounts was going to drop the motor down a bit more. A drop bracket will need to be made for my sway bar, or it will rub the pan. Not a big deal. I can make some up pretty easy with round or square tubing.

Glad you got that figured out white. The MM's are convertible in these trucks as well, well sort of. It's more of a trick, - the V10 will bolt up in these 150's by flipping the mounts. Still a tight fit against the FW, but it fits lol.

Go big or go home, lol. That would be an interesting swap. My Buddy had a 99 SD with a V10 that he bought brand new. It would light up the 35 inch BFG's no problem. I couldn't believe the torque that thing had.

Seems like he said 425 ft. lbs?
