I have a 351W in my EB now but the PO rebuilt it and it's leaking oil from everywhere...about a quart every 500 miles. I ultimately want to put fuel injection on it but am considering how to resolve the oil issue first.

I found a donor motor 351W from a '93 F150 that includes EFI and could be a simple, and direct swap. I have a 1" body lift. Anyone know if this stock 351W with EFI out of a F150 will fit in my EB?

Thanks,
Dave

the only prob is the truck efi upper manifold. its to tall to fit under the hood of an eb. you have to swap out the upper intake to a car style and all will be good to go.

adapter

Quick look on BC website it looks like only $99 for the adapter. This could be a good deal...the engine with all EFI is only $450.

Do lots of research. You'll still need high pressure pump system and wiring harness

harness

The original harness comes with the engine - do I need a new or different one?
