Anyone swap a 1995 mark viii 4.9 into their truck?
I came across a 1995 4.9 dohc and thought about buying the car and swapping the engine into my 67 f100. Anyone do that yet? Any issues?

Caya1382,
I haven't done this but I do believe someone here has done it. Look through the "Project Update" page and I think you will find it.
I am going to put a CV police interceptor engine in mine (yes I know it is essentially just a 4.6 SOHC, nothing special but still) and did look at a 98' Mark VIII engine but decided not to. Eventually I want to put a 5.0 Coyote engine in mine. Want to get it going with the 4.6 first though.
On a side note, if you do get the whole car, get the IRS out of it too even though you might not want to run it, someone will.
Good luck.
