LT1 Engine swap into 47 Ford Truck

[sigstruck]

I have a 1947 Ford 1/2 ton truck that the original flathead is toast. I found a LT1 engine in a caprice that is good with 700R4 tranny. Need information on swapping this engine? What motor mounts? What problems or modifications I will have to do and websites that have this swap in them?

Thanks
Jeff

I'm currently doing a LT1 swap into a 67 El Camino... I ordered a trans tail shaft to convert the electronic spedo over to the cable driven one.

He has to put a chevy engine in it because fords are to exspensive to work on and find parts for, besides everyone does the ford body with chevy power for some reason.
