I got a '99 Ford F150 EXT. Cab. My engine blew a couple weeks ago, so I want to put a 99 Lightning engine. I want to know if it fit perfectly and what do i have to do to make it work perfectly. I know i need to get a new fuel pump, but i dont know what else i have to get. Can anyone help me.

 

do you have the complete engine from supercharger to oil pan, including all the pullies? If so, it shouldnt be to much work at all, just the fuel pump, heat exchanger, throttle/cruise cables, intake, and a tune.

 

Dont forget the Lightning badges on the side. lmao

 

I'd opt for a big block.

 

i have new throttle and cruise cables for the lightning if you want them.

 

Why would you have lightning cruise/throttle cables for a reg basic f-150?

 

When I was going to do a lightning swap, i bought all parts needed, and ive sold it all but the cables.

 

I'm planning to get a complete lightning engine. Would you know any place where I can get a decent one for a good price. All I need is fuel pump, heat exchanger, throttle/cruise cables, intake, and a tune?

I might get teh throttle/ cruise cables from you, but right now im trying to get the engine first. Thanks I will contact you when im ready to get the throttle/ cruise cable from you

 

ok just let me know. I would check ebay, they have them quite often, just watch out for scams. always ask to see the motor in person before you bid, even if you are too far away. If they say no, dont do it.

 

Some one told me that i need a Lightning/Harley fuel pump to deliver enough fuel pressure and volume to feed the supercharger assembly, a spacer between the water pump and fan or an electric fan and it is recommended to reprogram or replace your chip.
Do i need fan?

 

yeah get a custom tune from www.troyerperformance.com just do an electric fan, and you will be happy. You could get a stock fuel pump basket out of a lighting for pretty cheap off ebay.

 

Thanks for all your help....

 

whats the length difference btwn L and a x-cab? cuz im lookin at building a L intake for my 5.4 soon.

 

Ohhhh.. Im sure built 5.4 has that memorized......

 

there's no difference from the doors forward... no memorizing, its common sense
