wrong engine
i decoded my vin on my 69 f-250 flatbed and found out it originally had a 360 not a straight 6 300 should i go back to the 360 or keep the 300,the 300 has overheat problems probably because someone in the distant past put a 91 300 in there and i was told it flowed backward from the original i am at a crossroad if i go back to the 360 would i have to get a different bell housing? it is a winter project help from the ford geniouses would be nice.

There are TWO different F100/350 FE bell housings, make sure you get the correct one.
D0TZ-7505-B (replaced C5TZ-7505-B) .. FE Bell Housing / Marked: C5TA-7505-B / Obsolete
Applications: 1965/66 F100/250 352 2WD / 1966 F100 352 4WD / 1967 F100/250 2WD/4WD & F350 352 / 1968/76 F100/250 2WD/4WD & F350 360/390.
1965 F100/250 352 4WD, 1965/66 F350 352, 1966 F250 352 4WD use a different bell housing, it's marked: C5TA-7505-C
4th digit of the VIN is the engine code. 1968/72 F100/350: A = 240 1V I-6 / B = 300 1V I-6 / G = 302 2V (1969/72 F100 only) / H = 390 2V / Y = 360 2V

1965 F100/250 352 4WD, 1965/66 F350 352, 1966 F250 352 4WD use a different bell housing, it's marked: C5TA-7505-C

1965 F100/250 352 4WD, 1965/66 F350 352, 1966 F250 352 4WD use a similar engine mounting system as 1961/64 F100/350 292.
L shaped engine mount bracket bolts to the timing cover, has 2 engine mounts at the front, one above and one below the cross member.
Bell housing has 2 "ears" .. has 4 rear mounts, 2 below the cross member, 2 above the cross member and the ears of the bell housing (7505 in upper pic).
Same thing applies to the 240/300 installed in these trucks, see upper parts catalog pic.
