time for a diesel?
Hi all, I've been thinking about switching from our 5er to a motorhome. I really really like our 5er (Forest River Flagstaff 2020 529RLKS uvw 9531). But really we are more, travel to a campground ...

Well, I've been looking at those 7.3's. Holy ****! They are some nice looking trucks tho. I wonder if it would be possible to put that engine in my truck. My Pop put a 327 into his 1955 Willys Wagon but I do not remember what transmission he had.
You'd have an easier time putting the 7.3 into that '55 Willys than you would into your current truck.
To make the engine run you're going to need whatever computer they've got in Cleetus McFarland's "McFlurry" Fox body Mustang drag car. It sure as heck ain't gonna be able to talk to your truck's current computer. Your truck's computer is going to say "no bueno" if it can't communicate with the engine.
I did not even think about a computer. I'm just that old! I'm it won't start, let's see if we can push it and pop the clutch old!
