Hi I have a 92 f250 it has a 351 in it that runs fine. But I haul a offroad toy amd need more power I can bet a motor for 600 with80000 on it. I w as told the idi s good but you not gogoing to tow faster then 55/60
aint that the truth. one of my F250's had a efi 460 with a 5 speed zf5. That truck would pull ANYTHING. But my turbo idi is another story.Mine started life with a carb'd 460/C6. The 460 would run circles around the NA IDI. If I had a turbo it would be a different story.
I've heard more times than I can count; "a 460 will pass anything but a gas station".
This statement is common for a reason.
My brother used to have an 85 with a nicely built 351W. The truck was heavy enough that you had to run the 351 hard enough that it got just as bad of gas mileage as the 460, but with less power.
I would be ranning a zf5 with 410 is it alot of work to do this swap I know the wiring no big deal I also found a motor trans n a tcase for 1300 obo with 150,000 miles on it what.should I do
Sweet thanks for all the,info I wish I could get a donor truck but I live michigan n ppl wants to much for stuff. I have a 92 so would I have to change the streeing colunm out
