help
Hay guys, I removed the 302 from my 1990 F250 and installed a 1970 351C. All fit nice but can not get it ti fire. I am using the existing wires and am wondering if that is ok or am I going to have to do some rewiring. I do get some firing but I think it is missing something. Anyone have any ideals???

You will probably get better help in the correct area for the year of your truck. I am thinking perhaps someone there has done it before and would be of help. Most of us down here are doing the exact opposite. Late model into an early truck.

extra, I bought a 92 a few years ago and we had to rebuild the engine. There are sensors & relays that must be in order and working for it to start. Finding someone local that is handy would probably be the better way to go.
Is there any state inspection that your truck must go through and pass? New requirements have put a damper on engine swapping in many states.
