Need a Spot
I am looking around to see if anyone has done a Ford 5.0 engine conversion into their toyota. I got the idea from the featuresw hot toys section and I am running through my options. It is cheaper and more plentiful both engine and aftermarket parts then the toyota 3.4 conversion, that's my main reason. Also the power and potential for power far exceed the 3.4. I just was onder how much room there is upfront for the radiator and fan, either with or without modifying the front clip.
Thanks

That might be a better q to ask over on the Pirate bbs.

Yeah this is where I got the idea. I was just curious if anyone else had done it. I am looking for any and all advice.

If you search Pirate4X4 for Rockstomper a few years back, they had a white truck with a 5.0 in it.

Quite a popular swap, actually. Downey and others make swap parts. It fits better than a 350.

One of the guys on Gitout.com did it... His truck is actually for sale now:
