Hey Guys I need some help with this one. I got a 4.6 2v out of a 2007 police car a few months ago FOR FREE along with some other necessary items like automatic trans, computer, radiator and some other little things. I am going to put this into my 1978 f150 because well its just sits around and i need a driver that i can take to college and not worry to much about paint and so on. I'm hoping the 4.6 provides me with much better mpg than the oh 5 i get now out of my tired 360. I was searching the internet and saw a guy that took the whole front end out oh a crown vic and used it in his 78 f150. Which is awesome, makes mounting the engine easy provides me with modern suspension, maybe abs ect. having this suspension also puts me into the car wheel market granting me access to my favorite wheels thus another plus to the swap.... myproblem is the police gave me the run around and ended up dumping the 2007 and 2009 PIs into the junk yard -_- so needless to say im pissed and now i actually have to buy the parts i had dibs on back :/ well since it went to the junkyard the rack and pinion are out along with the tie-rods and rotors. So i priced these parts up to find what i would have to have to get it to work and its like 600 bucks for rack an pinion, rotors, pads, tie rods ect. well if i am going to spend the money i want to spend the money wisely. So I would like to know what are my options as far as aftermarket goes. Are there better pieces for cheaper or relatively the same price? Obviously I want to get as most performance out of it for as little as possible (who doesnt). I will gladly take any advice you have to offer. it doesnt even have to be limited to the front end.
