- 1996 Explorer 5.0
Hello all, I am new to this site, thanks for having me. The reason for joining is because I inherited my dad's 1958 Chevy Apache truck which is really cool truck but I am a Ford guy. So my idea is to put a Ford engine in a Chevy truck. I came across a 96 explorer with a 5.0 running and everything for $1200. Im thinking I could basically transfer engine, tranny, differential, computer to my dad's truck. I have never seen a 58 Apache with a Ford engine, who knows. A lot of people put chevy engines in old Ford vehicles so why not do the opposite? I know a lot of Chevy people will not like that but its my project. What do you all think. Thanks for your time.
