2010 F250 dt466 swapped
I’ve been reading these forums on this swap for a year now. Tons of heat info from you guys. Granted some of these forums are old as hell. Jan this year 2021 I started my swap due to a blown motor. It’s been an absolute blast doing it and a pain in the ***. It’s like running track 110m hurdles in high school but they are higher than you thought and you trip and fall and have to overcome. I did overcome and got it into its rough draft formation and drove it around for over a month. The truck is so fun to drive and sounds bad ***. I still have quit a bit of final building stuff to do like new piping for turbo and cooler. And build a new cooler. But ultimately ver pleased with this project especially as a daily.
