Engine Swap
Does anyone know where I can find some kind of book about what parts will swap from a 1974 Ford F-150 4X4 to a 1970 Ford F-100 or vice versa...I know shops have these kind of manuals, I can't find one.

Ambre, As long as you ask nicely, You can get all that info right here.
Most everything will interchange between the two trucks as far as engines and trannys go.

Thanks John, the body of the '74 is all beat up but has a damn near new drive train, etc. What I need to do, is interchange the body from the '70 since it's in good shape. Will I be able to do that without building a new bracket, welding a steering gear, etc.???

You can, you might have to make a few mods, chop a little off the chassis end. Take your time and it can happen.
