6.0 in 66 with the a.c.?
I'm getting ready to swap my motor in but I would like to keep the a.c on it.
What is needed to make it functional in the truck? I have the complete donor vehicle. But I have nothing else. |

Re: 6.0 in 66 with the a.c.?
That's something I have not considered. The room is comparable to trucks up until the late 80's

Re: 6.0 in 66 with the a.c.?
With slider mounts you can slide the motor forward enough to have room for the compressor. Mine are an '84 and an '86. I don't know how that translates to a '66.

Re: 6.0 in 66 with the a.c.?
Sounds like I may be ok. This is as truck drivetrain. I'm starting to think the a.c. is going to be the hardest part of the swap.
