1969 F250 7.3l swap
Here she is hopefully will get to start soon I will be getting the motor and trans sometime this week. The motor is an 89 7.3 160k miles it had a seized ring and comes with rebuild kit new injectors and ip pump and a 2wd zf5 for $600. The truck is a 1969 f250 ranger with a 460 needs a distributor and carburetor with a c6 behind it $500. Was running when po sold the distributor because a friend needed it. I know the po personally so know it's the truth. It has been converted to disc brakes up front and a Dana 70 out back with 4.10's. The floor pans have been replaced and there are minor body flaws. The interior is pretty decent with new carpet and factory seat with a small tear as seen in the pics below the dash has not been cut for a new style radio so I can go back with the original style. It also has a new windshield and no cracked glass and the door seals look good and completely new brake system.

better get a powersteering set up for that badboy!
awesome truck!
i have a 71 F250 CS that i would love to swap, but its been in the family too long, shes staying stock.
i have a granny low box (T18?) and it looks like its not too far off from a ZF5.
shouldnt have an issue until you decide to throw a turbo on.
i would highly advise that you get a turbo now if you dont have one. atleast for mock up. youre going to need to do some clearance work.
may also need a custom trans access panel.
good luck
