I've yet to find anyone who's actually done either of these conversion, in a 46 - 48 Ford .

I haven't done this (T5) conversion in a 46-48, but the body style/year shouldn't make much difference. The only real issue should be the frame clearance. It will most likely require some modification the the center section of the frame and the fabrication of a new rear mount. But should be just basic Hot Rodding.
