Putting a 460 ford big block In a different truck?
I got a 84 f250 with a 460/ 4 speed. The body is completely **** and the tires and brakes are bad. The engine and the tranny work fine tho. What would I all need to put this engine in a different style body of truck like a 6th generation ford? And about how much do you think it would cost?
That would be a big job. There are no engine mounts made for that swap, so they would be custom ( spelled EXPENSIVE). Same with the transmission mount. There are no sensor harnesses made for that big block, so either you do without & re-do the entire computer system or try to adapt. The front end could need up grading for the extra weight, the fuel system would need work because of the low fuel pressure carb instead of the high pressure injections… Then you would have trouble IF you're in a pollution sniffing state, because there's no way it could pass that test.
It could be done, figure a couple thousand to swap the engine in, and another couple to get the gauges working.so, you can figure 5k. Might be nicer, though to take that 5k and throw a supercharger on the 6gen's engine.
- Why do car companies sell in different countries under different names? Why are companies like Chevrolet selling their cars under names like Holden in Australia? I'm not sure if Chevrolet sells in Australia but I do think they do. If they already sell in Australia, what's the point of selling the same thing under Holden? Another example is some Ford cars are sold under Lincoln, and Chevrolet sells the same thing under GMC. Buick and Opel? What's with this?

- Putting a different hood emblem on a 2000 Oldsmobile Alero? It's really just for laughs, but how would one go about removing the Oldsmobile emblem from the front end and replacing it with, say, a Ford or Cadillac emblem? I realize it's stupid, it's meant to be lol.
- Can my 2004 Ford F150 5.4 beat a 92 chevy truck with a 400 small block in it?
