Will this engine fit in my truck?
I have an 88 f250 351w 5 speed and i am looking to buy a 93 f250 351w 5 speed. Will the engine and tranny out of the 93 work on my truck without to much hassle?

You can use the 93 as a long block replacement..... It will be much easier and less troublesome if you use all the sensors and accessories from the 88...

These two motors are identical except for the distributors(93 is remote TFI and the '89 is not) so this should be an easy swap.

They should both be zf5's so as long as they are both 2wd or 4 wd they are the same.

Can an older engine be swapped into an 88 F-250?
