Hello everyone, figured I'd try out this forum to see if I can get a detailed answer to a few questions about my build.

I've owned my 69f250 camper special about 3 years now, I am the third owner. It has the original 360/390 and trans with it. I love my truck, and it's come a long ways since I found it neglected and rotting in a prickle berry bush.

I've decided I want to swap out the running gear and pretty much turn it into a "rat rod". have bought a 460 and c6 automatic transmission. They are matching and both got pulled out of a 1970 Lincoln mark 3. Engine has about 50,000 miles on it.

I've been surfing the net trying to find someone who has done what I am trying to pull off. I need to know what mounts/modifications and such I have to aquire and do, in order to mount my eng/trans in?

I have everything ready to go. Have the existing engine and trans ready to be pulled out all in one piece. Before I unmount them and haul er out, I figure itd be a good idea to figure out what parts I need to bolt my new engine and trans.

Any help or advice is much appreciated.

Cheers.

 

Hopefully, some kind soul will come along with the knowledge you need.

Otherwise, it might be a good idea to ask in the forum specific to your year. Is it 4x4 ?

 

It is not. It's a 2wheel drive.

 

LMC sells a complete kit to mount the 460 in your Bumpside. As far as the transmission, if the original was a C6 then it should still be able to use the same mounts. I've done a bit of research on this as I was considering the same swap with my 71 F250.
