Vin Decode and 429 stab

Just wondering if someone could help decode this VIN. It's off a 77 F250 Highboy. Also what mods will I have to do to stab a 429 into this truck, it's a 4 speed.

Thanks,
Steve

What Vin # ?

There are hundreds of 429/460 swap threads.

The best ones are in the Engine Swap forum.

It also depends on which 429 it is too.

At the very top of this forum (73-79 F150 or larger trucks) there is a tips and tricks Please read first post. He has 3 Vin decoder links in that post. That is what I used to find out info on my truck.

Unfortunately because you have a 300 instead of a 351M or 400 to swap put, you will need more donor truck type parts.

Get me the casting numbers on the 429 for me to comment on.

here are 351M/400 to 429/460 swap threads.

remembering that the 300 doesn't share anything with the 351M/400 or the 429/460

This truck has a V8, I believe the vin the seller gave me is a typo. Thanks for the info.
