Yes I have done it, the frames are almost identical throughout the whole 50's. There is no "Kit" or bolt in that will work, you will have to fabricate your own motor mounts/transmission mounts. Best motor for the job would be a 360 Mopar, no modification required other than the motor/trans mounts you can use the existing radiator, tons of power and potential for more. One of the cheapest motors to build and very abundant. A 318 is also a good motor to swap they are VERY abundant but being the little brother to the 360 you lose some power with it.

What engine is best in a 1500 dodge truck?
nowdays, the best motor you could put in the 1500, if you have the time and tools, is the 6.7L diesel engine. It cranks out about 500 horsepower and about 800 ft lbs of torque. If your not a motorhead, that is unbelievable. Dodge really put some thought into this beast of a motor. But there is a few factors in the motor swap, for example: this is a newer motor and if you have an older model truck you might need to do some cutting and beating, and not to mention your motor mounts but you can make those, and there are also a few hard to find aftermarket dealers who could custom make them.
Will 1984 Ford F-150 300 cu in engine interchange with a 1990 F150 Ford 300?
Yes, the 300 six cylinder was always basically the same. The newer motor will have fuel injection. You have to swap that or change out all the wiring.
Where is one cylinder on ford 4.2 engine?
On modern ford engines the number 1 cylinder is rather easy to locate. V-style engines are broken into 2 banks, Bank 1 and Bank 2. For example on a V6, Bank 1 will have cylinder 1,2, & 3 while Bank 2 will have cylinder 4,5, & 6. When facing the front of the engine Bank 1 will be slightly closer to you than Bank 2. However, the easiest way to determine cylinder #1 is to imagine yourself at the back of the engine (note: on transverse mounted engines the front of the motor is not facing you while standing in front of the vehicle but actually to one side. Look for the pulley and drive belts as that generally denotes the front of the engine.). From the rear of the motor Bank 1 is always the right hand bank on newer fords. Therefore cylinder # 1 will be on the most forward cylinder on the right side of the motor as viewed from the rear of it.

Sure ... once you replace the intake manifold and distributor it's just a gasoline powered motor at that point. The only issue you might have is with the motor mounts.

On most newer Dodge vehicles the pump assembly includes the filter and is located in the fuel tank. I would bet that's where it is.
