Looks like I have some choices to make for my '74 Bronco build-up. Back in the winter I acquired a fuel-injected 302 with the 4-speed auto out of a '89 F-150. Then last week I bought my neighbor's 1980 camperized Econoline van for the 351 and C6.
I already know that both engines are tall for the EB's hood, but I'm willing to add a scoop if required. I like the 302 because it's fuel-injected, but apparently making this fuel system work in the old Bronco might be a nightmare. I also like the 4-speed auto for the highway-friendly overdrive gear.
But......I'm really leaning towards the 351 for it's torque and simplicity of swapping it in. And the C6 is supposed to be a strong transmission right?
Both trannys are 2wd application. How easy/difficult will it be to convert to 4wd with either the C6 or AOD ? And which transfercase would I need to source out to make this work?
