Aero150
Hello everybody new to the forum but not to mechanics. I have a 1991 Aerostar 4l, and I also have a 1996 ford f150 v8 4.6 single cab that I want to use as donor. Can it be possible? I mean can it all fit nicely tucked in? I tried to search it up myself but I find nothing.

Welcome to this forum.
Can you elaborate, what are you trying to donate from the F150 to the Aerostar? The engine?
Someone has installed a 351W into an Aerostar:

but I think they said that a mod motor will probably not fit; the Aero's engine compartment area is too small.

The 4.6 is wider than the 351W.

The venerable small block Ford is probably the most compact American made v8, and it has been installed into an Aerostar without major cutting. Looks like it's been done before:

So it's probably the best choice.
