351w or 460?

i have a 1990 f-250 with a 351w and a 1979 f-250 with a 460. i was thinking of swapping the 460 into the 1990. i hear its a lot of work and money and that its not worth it. Did anyone do an engine swap before?

Re: 351w or 460?

First, check with local emissions laws. You might be better sticking with the 351. With it being a 1979 460, the 351 more than likely puts out more power and similar torque numbers. I'd leave it as is and part with the 460. Electronic complications might also arise, as if the 1990 has OBDI then it won't be feasible as the 460 isn't electronically controlled.
