Interesting. I have a spare 1989 7.3 IDI that I got out of a IH S1600 and I was thinking about trying to put it in a F-150. Good to know that it will work with some modifications. Sorry that one is out of my price range and I agree with laserjock. Used to do some snowplowing with Dad when I was younger and regardless of how careful you are it is almost impossible to not hit something.
