I'm looking to swap out my blown out motor for my 01' ford excursion to a ford f250 v-8. An uto salvage shop says they have a V-10 but i can't seem to find any on the web which is kind of crazy since it is the world wide web but any tips for the frankenstein creation to work?

throw it in the garbage?

 

i worked on a v10 f250 at jarrett scott ford. They have them, and i dont know about the swap, but with enough money theres no reason it wouldnt work...and its not a frankenstein deal, its just a motor swap...

 

hope you dont like gas.

 

have you tried Car-Part.com--Used Auto Parts Market ??? they have several 5.4l V-8's listed from the F250 Super-Duty

 

Put a diesel in it and run it on fry grease.

 

diesel would be the way to go. if your swapping engines anyways why not have a engine that you can actually get some decent power and better gas mileage than a gas engine?
