well I am new to the board, but i have been looking around at a few guys swaps and i have a few questions. My truck is an old army surplus F350 4 door long bed 4x4 that is running a 351 (my new locost car motor!) auto. and what im planning on doing is using a 92 motor from my donor (2wd auto) and making it a manual with a 91 getrag 5spd with a np241DLD from a 96 behind it. i would normally fab everything myself cause i would rather do it that way, but do to the fact tiny(F350) doesnt fit in the garage and our neighborhood has those damn covidence laws i pretty much have to get all the parts lined up and put them on in a few weeks so im getting my motor mounts from fordcummins (already read threw the manual 5 times fromfordcummins) and make a trany mount once it is in (as long as fenders are on and hood is on im ok...tarps are a nono haha). Now to the questions....
1)This is a totally mechanical motor, so no computer right? (except for TPS which i can just take off cause the motor is from an auto truck)?
2)Is there anything else i should take off the truck before i junk it besides motor?
As of right now im not looking for lots of power or anything, just somethin a little different.
thanks for the help!!!
