93 f150 powertrain into my 64

[dirtyracer]

i have the front end of my 64 mostly tore a part to repair some rust and try to get prepped for paint when i got a good deal on a 93 f150 since my 292 and 3 speed are a little tired i thought i wood try and kill 2 birds with one stone my truck is a solid i beam truck if some one could point me in the right direction on this it would be a lot of help can i reuse the motor perches from the 93 or do i have to find after market units and were is a cheap place to get the wire harness

I have the e-z wiring harness brand new still in the box, I didn't get a chance to use it. $150.00 it's yours.

You did not mention what engine/trans combo the 93 has. You can run into issue with the oil pan and the front axle clearance. You could also re-use a lot of the 93's harness if you have more time than money for a new harness. The engine mounts are totally different between your truck and a 93. The y-blocks are installed with a front mount and bell housing mounts for side stability. The 93 will use the more common side mounts. I think you'll have to either fab something up or buy something to get the engine and transmission in place.

Might consider utilizing the '93 harness ander ECU. Aftermarket harnesses are available but somewhat pricey.
The double sump oil pan on the Windsors will clear on a stock height vehicle with fabricated mounts.

thanks for the help i should of said it was a 302 and a aod and i realize the differences in the mounts but was wondering if any body had had any luck cutting the motor mounts out of the donor truck to reuse i'am sure some one has tried it and i was hoping to learn from there experience i'am new here this is not my first build but it is my first slick and i have never dealt with a ford EFI harnesses i have the time just not the know how

Dirty check with Tom for your motor mount and tranny mount needs he is a member here . Yes you will either have to buy aftermarket mount setups like Tom sells or fab mounts .

Here is some information on the EFI harness/setup. If you not changing much on the motor the harnes is easy enough. http://oldfuelinjection.com/ They do have a new EFI harness which is an easy thing to hook up if you don't want to redo your orgianl one. I have used this harness and it was easy not cheap but very easy to get running.

The generic pipe mount most places sell will likely interfere with a flipped axle and the tie rod at that height. If you're wanting to flip the axle, you'd be better off flip it and notch the frame before building/ buying engine mounts.

i was afraid of that thanks 4 the heads up i go to pick up the donor truck in the morning and the tear down will began i just finished painting the motor and putting a four barrel intake and edelbrock on the 292 so it would figure that i would run into a cheap power plant lol
