Back in the game
Grabbed a 75 f150 on friday.
4x4, 360 (rebuilt) 4spd, shorty, dana 21 and retarded steering lol
I fixed the lighting issues today, couple cut wires in bundle out back, trans reverse switch disconnected, oil change. One valve cover leaking slightly, gonna fix on tuesday.
No rust on truck.
Brake light on dash, gotta mess with prop valve. Other than those things in real good shape.
Going to find 78/79 steering gear to swap as this control valve leaks so no power steering right now

The brackets look legit, not home-made.
As for body lift, meh...not the biggest fan but itll stay in for now.
Has headers, full dual exhuast , eaton locker in rear. Tires/wheels are new.
I want to replace the dana 21 with a np205, will a 205 from an auto (c6) be a direct replacement or am i looking at adapters, etc?
I just want to get all the small things dialed in and just drive er, i missed my 78.. Wish i knew where it was...

I believe the carb is an Edelbrock Thunder Series AVS.. 650 cfm. Good carb for a truck. The pics are kinda dark but the intake appears to be a vintage Streetmaster? Look on the back of the intake and it might be cast with that name.
Sorry, I'm no help on the C6/205 combo.. I too have a D21 but with an NP435 (2WD version). I picked up a 4WD NP435/NP205 combo a few months ago for swapping in later this year. Yay.
On the PS , there are quite a few links in this post under the PS/disc swap heading: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1...l#post14955940

Good call on the carb, 1806S= S is for satin finish.
This is the intake...
Intake Manifolds - Ford - Big-Block - Performer Series - Edelbrock, LLC.
