a couple ?
will the alluminum rims from a 90 f-150 fit a 78 f-150, also ive asked before but got confused, is there a direct bolt in motor to replace a 351 / c-6 tranny in a 78, i was looking for something big and loud and not at the least bit a "gas saver"

All 2X4 1/2 Tons between 1949 to 1996 had a 5 on 5.5 bolt pattern with 1/2 inch lug nuts so the answer to your question is yes as long as both trucks meet the previous qualifications --- I have aluminum rims from a 81 on my 73 without problems.
