I was gonna replace both tanks and replace them with brand new tanks for a 5.0 , and the parts company in my area sell the tanks with all the fuel components together for 150 bucks. But I have another question to ask, me and my buddy were talking and the 5.0 has dual air intake, I wanna run a...

is there an online website that allows you to design your paint job, see all the color combos and what not?

I'm getting the frankenford ready for body work and paint and what I had in mind for the paint was forest green with a solid black strip down the length off the truck at the bottom of the door to match the black low profile tool box, then I'm getting black diamond plated running boards,then I'm...

its an 89 f150, but the 5.0 is coming outta a 1990 f150, i have all the harnesses for the 5.0 just wanted to know if i needed all of them

I'm converting my truck from the 4.9 to the 5.0 came I use the wiring harness from the 4.9 on the 5.0 or do I need a whole new harness? Sorry for the noob question

dude i gotta say i was going through the project cobra thread and man am i jealous, that truck is so sick, you should deffiantly come up to massachusetts and help me make the frankenford that sick. kudos man on a nasty build, wish i had that kinda cash to drop into her

ill deffiantly look into that, i was talking to my buddy and im gonna start gutting the 4.9 and hopefully take it out in the next complete days then we're gonna drop the 5.0 in it, funny thing is that engine is out of a 1990 f150 i sold him a few months back before i got the frankenford, hes...

how can i ID my tranny?

thats good to know, thank you very much for the help

that really helped , thank you f150c0bra

i just want a decent engine im not going to be doing any heavy hauling. maybe a boat and trailer for the summer. i plan on keeping the manual transmission, maybe i can just rebuild the 4.9 and try to get the maximum hp. out of it with a super charger or something along them lines, cant i also...

that makes sense, i know the 5.0 isnt the best engine out there so would it be worth all the trouble of swapping out the 4.9 for the 5.0 or should i just rebuild the 4.9 to eliminate the need to go out and find all the parts i need for the 5.0?

the tranny needs a computer? im sorry for the noob questions this is my first rebuild, my buddy is rebuilding his 5.0 and is gonna sell it to me, so itll have everything it needs , the engine mounts for the 4.9 appear to be the same except for rubber bushings, if i were to take them off and have...

he wants them like 50 a peice

how hard would it be to convert the frankenford from its blown 4.9 to a rebuilt 5.0 , im not exactly asking for a step by step list but what are some problem i ma run into, fuel lines, tranny hook up, ect.?

would buying 2 mint condition doors off the 84 be a good idea?

Would the door from an 84 f150 reg.cab fit onto an 89 f150 reg.cab or would there be complications?

would the doors from an 84 f150 reg. cab fit onto an 89 f150 reg.cab?

there will be no funeral only a revival lol , maybe a cummins turbo diseal, if i knew anything about diseal engines i would consider it but alas i dont, my buddy has a 5.0 302 hes rebuilding and upgrading all the fancy bells and whistles , so thats probably whats gonna be going in her till i can...

the frankenford died today, she was idlling in my driveway today i was listening to the engine misfire trying to figure out what the issue was, and it started shaking violently, so violently that the alternator bracket broke and cause the fan on the alternator to start cutting in the bracket, i...

i need a full exhaust system from the block back, everything, manifolds, the pipes that come off the manifolds, and ect, i have a 89' f150 with the 4.9 300ci. what do u guys believe would be the best system to put on my truck to make it sound the nicest.

There's something wrong in the engine, it doesn't idle right until its in gear,I'm gonna go with fuel injectors cause it sputters, I did a full tune up, oil change with lucas oil and gas treatments, distributor cap, rotar, plugs, and caps. I love this truck though its my baby

the notorious frankenford 1989 f150 xlt lariat 4.9/300ci 5 speed

Would it effect my heat in anyway if I took those to black boxes off, the ones that the ac condenser mounts to

I wanna take the ac out of my truck and I was wondering if I can take this whole unit out of my truck,its mounted on the ride side below the windsheild, it seems like it might be the floor blower or something, its a big black box thing. Any help would be appreciated, idk how to post pics

would putting an eldelbroch super charger on an 89 4.9 straight 6 be a a bad idea? I want personal opinions , I'm trying to get the maximum amount of power out of it

89 f150 4.9 300

What's the most common issue with a speedomoter and odometer to only work once in a while, loose connection?

I thought of that , I used lucas oil and other injector cleaners to no prevail, idk much about engines I'm kinda learning as I go, is there only one fuel injector and how hard is it to replace?

I did that a few times but I looked up the firing order " 1-5-3-6-2-4, and replaced the wires with deelectric grease and it still does it, could it possibly be the idle air control valve or some thing to do with the vacuum system?or maybe even piston work?
