What Slick60s Engine Transplants Have You Seen?
I've seen Coyote and Cummins swaps. How about a Triton V-10 or Perkins 6.354?

Haven't personally seen a 6.8 V-10 in a Slick, but I'd expect by now, someone has done it.
I do know a local fellow who's in the middle of doing the 6.8L swap on a Bumpside ('71 XLT), and being as his last swap was the Lincoln 4.6L DOHC 32V into a '57 Ford SW, I expect the Bump will be nicely done:)

A quick YouTube search "Perkins Ford" will net you several from South of the border...
I believe we had an Ecoboost build here at one time...
Mention of a Mercedes build but never heard of the results...
I've heard talk of a 'two stroke' Detroit in a Ford...
How about something rare, 427 overhead cam side oiler...

I'd seen Martin's Perkins powered Crew Cab but no Slick60s. The 5" stroke would get the load moving.FarmMotorSports wrote:A quick YouTube search "Perkins Ford" will net you several from South of the border...

The other Pat the farmer, slick 4x4 had a bump with a Detroit in it. Never saw it personally, but hear it was Cool and LOUD.
and of course there have been many many 350/350 combos in these trucks, sad as it makes me.
there are many, many good choices out there why waste your time on the lowest common denominator..

It's a race.. Will hell freeze over or will JC finish his truck first. Stay tuned..

I put a Briggs & Stratton 3.5 h.p. in mine. It will pull a house down the road in that granny gear . . .
