    hello forum,

    i have a 1976 ford maverick oz250 with a c4 and 3.25 rear end, finally my 250 block is a waste, with tears in my eyes i have no other option but to swap my oz250, i really love it (Mike Winterboer built my oz250 head ), 3 cracks in the block.
    I have the option to put a 1995 ford f150 302 into my maverick, please can you give me some advice about the swap, i really don know much about the v8's. I am planning to switch the intake and use a carburetor instead the efi. I know that the same c4 with the bellhouse is going to work, also the starter is going to work, but please can you share with me what about the headers, the radiator, flywheel, engine mounts, and any tip you could give me, thank you in advance.

    Best regards

    Dario.

    You'll need one from the aftermarket, 157 tooth, 50 ounce balance.

    Otherwise you'll have a giant paint shaker.
