8BA engine in a 1938 1 ton express pickup truck

[rkmiller]

I have a 1938 1 ton express pickup truck without an engine. I have read up extensively the posts on this forum to include this one on a 1938 1/2 ton pickup https://www.fordbarn.com/forum/showthread.php?t=337607


My dilemma is that I have the 1 ton express with the larger truck frame and radiator.


A machine shop in KC, MO within a couple hours drive has a freshly rebuilt 8BA with truck water pumps, oil pan and cast iron 1/2 bell housing.


I have read extensively all the postings I can find here, but I am not sure what issues there would be with a 1938 1 ton. Being a larger truck with a different frame and radiator vs the cars and 1/2 ton pickups that have been extensively discussed here before.


Any advice would be greatly appreciated.


Thanks!
