Good luck! I did a 7.3 transplant on my 1986 4x4, had a 6.9 in it that ate a valve,things sure are HEAVY! One very important thing to keep in mind, leave the torque converter on the trans, I didn't do it and it messed up the trans pump, had to rebuild the pump with an old one I had handy.Otherwise things are quite simple, a lot easier than gassers.
