I'm debating on a ford 5.0 swap for my 1991 B2600i

Anyone has a writeup on how to do this swap or at least what engine mounts and transmission mounts did you use to make it all fit or is there anywhere I can find mounts to do this swap?

how hard was this swap to do?
what was the hardest part when doing the swap?

The only kit that I know of is from a company that is long out of business called Ultimate Customs from Ajax, Ontario. I do have a kit in my garage and will post it for sale when I move in a month. I do know that more are kicking around out there so happy hunting.

My biggest hurtle was trying to figure out what do about the clutch linkage system. wanted to keep a hydraulic clutch. stumbled across Kovz's build and he has a great setup that I am currently using.
Kovz's the whole reason I joined this site. Thanks bud!
