i dunno if it will work but u shuld see if its possible that the engine fits inside the car because i think the max on a pickup is a 3.0l i dont kno if u culd do it but just check and see if it has enough space to fit in if it does please tell me

It probally wont fit youll probally have to cut out the fenders And a bunch of other things The motor itself may fit but you have to remember headers and everything thats where it gets hard Question why a ford motor there not that durable as a lt1 350 camaro motor and the camaro motor Has a lot more power! Plus the chevy you can really push push and they just take it my friend has 257,000 miles on his chevy truck and he put i huge cam in it was pushing like 7,000 rpms with a factory motor and it still runs today he was doing 60 in second ger with the truck and it was stock except for the cam Thats why i love chevys much more durable

Do a online search for NWOR or northwest off road. They sell everything you need to do the swap.
