Putting 8970 motor in a ford 9000 May 10, 2019 02:14PM
Wondering what it takes to put a genesis motor out of an 8970 into a ford 9000. I want to know everything that has to be done to get the engine to fit.

I would like to keep the stock bolster. I read somewhere awhile ago about putting a 40 series damper on it. I think it’s been awhile since I was looking into it so I can’t remember for sure.

I was wondering about the balancer in the front being an issue? And the clutch I got now is only a single disc once this motor goes in I will go to a dual disc.

If you are using the stock front bolster ,you will need to either modify it or change the damper. also the oil pan may have clearance issues

I have done it, you need to cut about 3/4" square out of the bolster for the oil pan to clear. However, mine already had a modified damper on it when i got the engine so i didn't have any problems there. I still have my stock bolster here in NW Ohio if you want it instead of cutting your's apart.
