Greatings from Indiana, cool series brother ... I have done a couple 7.3 swaps and a 6.0 delete with a 7.3. taking the turbo off gives you tons more room. I would've done new up pipes while it was out tho. Keep up the good work
Trying hard to find a good donor truck for my 7.3 swap, my current truck has a 5.4 2v with the zf6 manual trans. These videos are gonna be a huge help!
Very hard to find what you need! The zf6 bellhousing for 5.4 is going to be different first of all. The 7.3 with transmission sits back further, so you'll need a shorter driveshaft. The dash and engine harness is a full swap. The body wiring may be different, mine was/is. It's hard to say it's worth it man, but I'm a stubborn guy. Good luck!
There are a few holes in the cradle for the different engines that go into the super duty. So frames are the same and accept the gas v8, v10, and the 7.3. 99% sure, it's been a minute. So yes, used the 7.3 mounts.

Turbo off is way to go. I premeditated your comment on the up pipes. New ones in, somehow didn’t make the edit. Thank you!

@@theoloakYeah I’m expecting this to be quite the project, but in the end she’ll probably last quite a while
What did you do for motor mounts did you just use the ones from the 7.3
