Taking nominations for tech folder

I want to start a tech folder here in the Engine Swaps forum.

Post a link to a thread that you think should be included. The biggest that comes to mind right now is the "Droopy" thread, as well as ChasinTruck's Cummins thread.

There are others, some never completed, that include a lot of info about the CV frame under an older F-series, stuff about the I6-300 and small-block interchanges, etc.

Please lend a hand, and I will create a sticky for this.

Again, post the link to the thread, and a quick explanation as to why you think it should be included.

thanks!

This thing is what inspired me when I was 1st looking into the swap. I know Mark never finished it, but still - some good info in here.

Not sure if the tech thing would be different than the stick it already is though.

Oh - and thanks for thinking my stuff is worthy of being "tech"

OK.

On a side note for my thread - my 1st couple pages have the pics all messed up or not there as I was stiff figuring out photobucket at the time & changing file locations. Back then we weren't able to go back & edit our posts so I was never able to change the pics to what they should be. Do you have the ability to edit them? If so I can send you the links for the pics to clean it all up.

Thanks!

I never got to finish the build but I think my thread is full of info for putting a V10 into many generations of ford trucks.
