Engine Swap - '92 5.0EFI/AOD into '66 Ford F100....
Well, as the "self-appointed pic police chief" I've been cited by my self-appointed deputy (34-40 aka Mike) with this comment: "But now it's your turn!! I hear stories of pickups getting re-powered and maybe suspension upgrades.. and wasn't there a 36 Ford??? HMmmm.. maybe we should cite you for withholding evidence??"
I guess it's time I do this Attachment 57824
First, Mike, it's a '37 (in my avatar) that's patiently waiting on the next move while my truck gets a little extra attention.
Now, this is the '66 Ford F100 that is the topic of this thread.

Yes, Uncle Bob, it still needs to be lowered!:)
It still has the stock 352FE/cruiseomatic (with a couple of small changes - Edelbrock intake/carb, Pertronix II ignition, Hedman Hedders) with a Dana 44 limited slip rear end

It's my daily driver. The old FE is getting a little tired, using some oil, smoking a bit and has always been a major gas hog. Thus, it's time for some changes.....
Enter donor car:
A totalled '92 Mustang GT convertible, 5.0/AOD with 62K original miles verified by insurance company.

I bought the engine, trans, all wiring, computer, etc in an attempt to make this swap as easy as possible:

Now, the goal is to get everything figured out and sorta pre-fit in advance so HOPEFULLY this swap can be completed in a few days.....because, like I said, this truck is my daily driver and I need it!:D
Ok, I don't want to overload the first post so.....more to come in the next one.....:)
