So checking the various resale website i came across a listing for someone here in town selling a complete 250 out of a 77 maverick that ran before they pulled it about a month ago. They are asking all of $200 which i think isnt too bad, but to those of you who have done it, how much of a bear is it to swap the 250 into the early round body cars? Ive looked at the handbook for as much info as possible so i know the jist of what likely would be needed but for those who have actually done it was there anything else you ran into or i should consider? Is the swap really even worth it for what im getting? I did have a vision to do a full bore N/A 250 build a few years ago but calculations predicted that it wouldnt make much more than about 200hp at the wheel. Which for the amount of money spent seemed a little disappointing. I could always follow does10s footsteps and run boost and really make the power id like but also more financial investment. Maybe its worth buying just for the head? let me know
