Hi guys. Just thought I would introduce myself. My dad and I have a few Fords to work on and I am looking for info and advice. I have a '67 Ford F-100 and a '75 Mercury Marquis, and my dad has a '50 F-1 P/U. I would like to get the motor and chasis upgraded on the '50 p/u. We have been debating on what engine should be used on the '50. I would like to use the old flat head thats in it. He is concerned about cost and reliability. He wants a Ford motor in it. How easy is it to install a 302 or 351 in a '50? I have more questions but they will come later.
