93-92 Engine Swap...done!
Hi All!
good news, I'm finally done putting my 5.8 out of a 93 Bronco into my 92 F150 where the 5.0 used to be. the things I had to change/keep were, new flywheel, kept the exhaust manifolds on and took the "y" pipe out of the Bronco, took the whole alternator,air pump bracket off the 5.0 and put this on the 5.8, put the engine wiring harness from the 5.0 onto the 5.8, the only wire that didn't find a home was the knock sensor, changed a few vacuum lines and that was about it, not too bad.
Thanks again for your help and advice
Merry Christmas

Outstanding achievement! I gotta say that although I initially wanted the 5.0L in my brand new (back then) '92 F150, I went with the 5.8L and have never looked back. The extra punch is worth every penny at the pump. Congrats!
