will it fit
i have both engines out to swap.both are 1992s one from a van and one from a truck. the van engine is going into the truck(f-350 4x4). i have already discovered that i need to swap the oil coolers and the driver side manifolds. one engine runs serpentine belts the other is v belts. my question is will i need to change the power steering pumps? the one on the van engine is slung a good bit lower than the truck one. anybody done this swap? is there anything else i may have to change?

1. If you have a sepentine belt on one engine it is might be possible that you have to change the Waterpump .
2. since you need a special tool to remove the the pulley is much easier to change the whole steering pump.

what i really need to know is if it will fit. i want to keep the serpentine set up on the engine i am using. the p/s pump brackett thats on it seems to be way beefier than the other one,plus if i change the brackett and the pully(to keep it serpintine) i would end up with a p/s pump thats adjustable along with a tensioner pully. i am also probably going to be into an issue with belt length.
