Hey guys. Long time no post.
I got a 77 LTD II (i know not a truck) with a 351w that is...iffy. Its sat for many years after it jumped time.
Anyways..
Im curious...if i bought a junkyard 351w from a later model F series (an EFI version) could i just swap the distributor, intake, manifolds, etc and run it? Or is it more involved then that. Late model 351s are eaiser to come by locally then older ones, and are more likely to be running.
Ive thought about rebuilding the current one and still may, im just curious.
Its got an FMX trans if that matters.
Im not after performance or EFI, just a reliable weekend cruiser.
