Hey everyone. Just checking in as a FTE newbie. My ride is a 55 F100. It's a daily driver as needed. Current engine is the 223. Two weeks ago, I picked up a '58-'59 rebuilt 292 long bock . I'm working through the parts list and am sure to have many questions about the transplant. I look forward to connecting and learning from you all. JA

Welcome to the FTE JA

When you get settled in, post up a few pictures

 

Here are some pics of the 55. It's a driver that's been in local parades and also made several trips to the dump! Once I get the 292 built, I plan to swap it for the 223. Right now I'm trying to figure out the engine mounts. From all I've read, it seems that the Y blocks are even swaps with the 223. Do you have any insight to this one? Thanks
JA

 

 

Looks like a great project! Solid truck with lots of patina. Tow bar is a definite keeper! 223, 256 or 272?

 

 

FANTASTIC
