75 f250 highboy cummins conversion
I was thinking on doing a 12 valve swap to my 75 highboy and wasn't sure how I should do the wiring and don't know what to do about the cross member.
Thanks

Do you see the blue line with User CP, Albums, FAQ? See the SEARCH on that line? It has a drop down search menu arrow. Go to the "Advanced Search"option, top left side (search block), type in there what you are looking for. And then go to the lower right column and highlight 73-79forum. Select it and then you will have a detailed search just in the 73-79 forums. There are some threads that cover the wiring.

Then taking on this kind of swap is probably not the right move for you.

Read?! Seriously?! Geez, that sounds like a bunch of work. I would rather do it the easy way and just sit and be told.
