A few years ago I ... ok a really good friend of mine who is a wizard of a mechanic helped/did a lot of it... we stuffed a 4BT into a 71 Ford. We ended up doing a lot more then just the engine.
Dana 44 out of a 78 F250 (disk brakes)
Power steering box out of a 78
Power brakes using the chev bread van hydro boost
5 speed from a 90s ford with a mated 205.
About all thats original is the body, frame, and dana 60 rear.
I tried my hand at Youtube and still post videos from time to time. I think i am up to 8 videos, some of them are probably a little boring.
My future plane is to actually tune the pump to decrease smoke and hopefully increase power. I am also thinking about flatbed-ing it this winter.
Gents,
