hello, everyone i really need help with my 1979 Quadra Van I swap the engine from a 1985 cube van 350 to the 1979 it fit but the it wont turn and also cracked the transmission housing so i am getting another rebuilt tranny to replace it. the rebuil tranny is from a 1977 4x4 truck i dont know if that would fit .does anyone has any idea how to do this change and the engine that i swap the oil filter is hitting the chassis, do i have to change the fly wheel or the converter.
Does the newer motor have the same oil filter adapter that was on the old motor? The one our 460 pathfinder Quadravan uses puts the oil filter out at a 45 degree angle.
As for the flexplate/flywheel.. I can't answer that. We just rebuilt the motor and trans that came with our rig when we got it..
wow that an beautiful engine looks my newer engine but i am having difficulty with oil filer but it looks just like yours i cant get get the old adapter from the ols engine off it seen to be seal really well i dont know if there is much difference from the chassis
BTW,,, I use those oil filter adapters on my small block conversions, there are two versions of those, one more also, with fittings to an oil cooler in front of the radiator. According to Ford??? the gasket/oring that seals to the block is not available, however with some work, I was able to locate the correct O ring to replace it when you take it off. It is usually margin able for a re seal again. These are the people I found, that already knew about it and had the correct o ring.
