Looking to swap 7.3 with turbo and E40D trans into 1974 F350 four door two wheel drive dually. Truck has 360 and a four speed now. Looking for input. IE Swap Kits and so on
with a couple pictures that still load. It's a 74 with a Cummins and a ZF.
I have a 75 crew cab 4x4 that I swapped in a 460 gasser using L&L mounts. It's ugly, beat and rusty (like me) and I love it!
There's a guy who posts here that has an early ford with a Powerstroke in it. He did a really clean job but I don't remember who it was.

78stroker,, Have not seen pictures since it was finished, if it is. That was going to be a clean project. (Read, Probably a show truck) LOL
He had a 78 CC long bed, SRW if I recall.

I'm thinking it was a young guy from Texas or maybe New Mexico. Had a bunch of pictures on Webshots of his truck with a bunch of girls in the shots. I think it was a late seventies red and grey Supercab?

You were correct it was 78stroker that was doing the PSD unfortunately his picture links are no good. Oh well.

I was thinking of RockinS and his beautiful Fummins

Rocky's truck is a nice ride, clean in and out. He's also made it into the low 13's with it. Expect it to be deep into the 12's next year.
I am on here about every day, I just don't post very often.
There are no swap kits available as far as I know. You will need to get the entire truck to help make the swap easier. You will also need to change the rearend, (vehicle speed sensor) so the computer can control the tranny. I think you will even need to use the speedo out of the newer truck, as the PSOM converts the vss signal from frequency to pulses before it goes to the PCM. It will be easier I think, to use the entire late model wiring harness. Send me a PM if you have any more questions.
