Slick 60's

I just picked up my 74 F250 today. The motor is a very strong 400M with a good C6. Paid $350 for the whole thing. 400 & C6 will go in my 66SB.

I am wondering if anyone else has put a 400M in a Slick? If so, what were some issues, if any?

How easy is it hook up the newer ignition in my 66?

also pics of 351/400M's installed would be great.

Love them Dentsides. The 400 should bolt in with ALL the mounts from the 74 if they used the factory one to put it in the 74. A 400 was not an option in 74 came out in 77.
Wiring in the Duraspark is easy. Here's directions

I have a 400 in my truck. bought it that way. It's ok but would rather have a 300. Dang my age is showing.
If you need photos let me know what you want. I have the three speed tranny.

I plan on using new motor mounts. I would assume I need to move the engine perches to the other set of holes on my 66. Can I use the perches that attached to my 240 or do I need to snag the ones out of the 74?

rbcyouthdude, do you think you could take a couple pics of the engine compartment. maybe one from each corner of the front. so i can see how much room is in the slick.
