The front cross member is diferent and you need a special "C" bracket from the 8BA to the cross member. I'm looking for a 1953 myself for the same purpose.
I am building an 8ba and need a truck for it to go in! Looking for preferably a patina red 51 or 53 F1. This 53 fits that but if the crossmember is different then it's a deal killer. Search goes on. Nice engine by the way.

The v8 has 2 front cross members. It has the same as the 6 has plus another behind that to support the engine.
