I think some of the older 351s came with the Saginaw style pump. The Mustang one you have is a Ford, plastic reservoir, pump. They are known to be a little noisy at times.

If the one in your truck is the Saginaw pump, it will have a steel reservoir. If that is what your truck has, they wont interchange without using a newer pump mounting bracket.

Saginaw pumps were in vans only. Both the Mustang and F-250 should have a plastic reservoir pump. They should be the same but it would be best to compare mounting holes and fittings to be sure.
