With a little ingenuity, anyone can install any size, brand, type of motor into a truck. It might not bolt in but new mounts can be welded in. Good luck

Your looking for my late father's business that is going to be sold soon. The name of the business is Wilcap or Sharp. Try Wilcap.com. Good luck, hope the new owners can help you as soon as possible. The business will probable be functioning early next year, late January! Matteo Capanna

Hi, The FTE posting guidelines forbid posts on the subject of putting "Brand X" engines into Ford Trucks. Sorry, and thanks for your future cooperation. This thread is now locked.
