My cousin got into a accident with his F-250. The motor and trans are fine. Needless to say. I now have a 7.3 turbo with 5 spd trans to put in something. Looking for an older ford 80s or older maybe a 5.0??? Suggestions are welcome ---

To heavy for a 5.0 . There are a couple threads on the corral of the weight difference and it is just to heavy to overcome . ---

I don’t THINK it would fit, but try shoehorning it into a Wrangler. People drop decent sized V8s in those things all the time. I know a Chrysler 5.9 fits in one of those things with plenty of room to spare, so this might, but maybe not. ---

What year motor? Do you have a t-case too? Salvage as much off of the donor truck as you can, the entire fuel system would be critical. Convert whatever it is to vegetable oil, it will be a million times more badass. ---

^ I assumed it wasnt a good fit for any “go fast” application… why would a bike need 400 ft/lbs tq. :lol: Its kinda like why put anything other than a 1000cc motor in a bike 😉 \<3 ---
