V10 Swap F150 Help
Hey Guys, havn't been on in a while. Anyways, I need a little help. I helped this guy out keeping his lawnmowers running for years, and the other day he gave me his old f150 for free (well not too old-a 93!) It needs a new motor in it, (the old 302 is done!).
Well, I was looking for 351/5speed combos for sale on craigslist. All that stopped when I was told we'd be scrapping a v10 exersion left abandoned at the shop....and that I could have the v10 with the wiring harness inside it! Now, I was left with the problem of a transmission. I ALSO found a free zf5 out of an 87 6.9 diesel. Does anyone on here know if the zf5 from a 6.9 will bolt up to a v10 triton? If you can answer this question I'll owe you one, and will deffinentally give you props when it's done. Also any other advice would be appreciated. Thanks Guys! |
Well you won't know unless you try it. You could always make an adapter plate easy enough granted the input shaft fits

You'd be farther ahead to buy a V-8 because you'll get tired of feeding that V-10 real soon. :c:

i would imagine the gas mileage on the V-10 is around 5 gallons a mile +/-

Not sure on the bell on the V10, but the ZF5 will have the same bell as a 7.3 PSD, slightly different from a BBF.

wonder what gets worse MPG? the puny 5.4 V8 under a 3/4 ton truck, or the V10? :argh:
