My 73 build with some questions

[Rowdy73]

Currently building a 1973 f100 with a 4.6 2v from an 05 crown vic. I've got the the crown vic front end and 8.8 rear end with a parallel bar 4 link in it. I didnt want to mess with cutting up the harness so I got a ron francis wiring kit I'm getting ready to throw in. I had a few questions for anyone that has already done this.

Can I use the f100 radiator (for a 302) or should i go with the crown vic one?


I have the dash from to crown vic and was thinking of using the instrument cluster, can I do that with the ron Francis standalone?

I was wanting to use the crown vic ac/heating system and wondering if anyone has tips on making that work.


Got some pics of the project so far.
