73 ford f-250 390 swap to 94 12 valve cummins
I am interested in swapping out the original 390 motor out of my 1973 ford with a 94 12 valve cummins. I need some input on either buying just the motor and getting the rest of the parts places or buying a truck with a good motor I can take all the parts off I need. Any suggestions?

Swap can be done for cost of donor plus $1-2k. That's a 'making it work' approach; with lots f time on your side; some minor fab and modifying parts in the process. Not rebuilding the whole truck or hotrodding in the process. No intercooler or AC simplifies the swap.
I got my '90 D250 5spd for $1000 with a broken rear end. My buddy is looking at a '92 D250 5spd for $1200. Me and a buddy scored a beaten '95 3500 4x4 for $1500.
Those are the deals mind you.... $3-5k is more typical. This is from CL and whatever online ads you have in your area.
