I've got a 1990 w-150 4x4 which HAD a 318 in it until a bosch platinum plus plug decided to fall apart in my cylinder and bust my valves, rings, piston and chunked up the heads and sleeve a bit. Sent the plug and pictures of damage in to see if they'd help me at all. They didn't. So I figured Id drop a 440 in my truck since it'd be badass. I Have a few questions though.
The 440 came out of a motor home. Year is '74. So it has the front sump style pan, which oil pan and motor mounts would I need to get for it to fit in my '90 w-150? I haven't gotten serial numbers from the engine or tranny yet, but tranny is 727a I believe, Would the tranny bolt right to it? Or would I need to put the torque converter on the 440? Any help is appreciated. I have pictures of my 318 and 440 if anyone wants to see pictures. Thanks peoples.
