What better place is there than a boating site to ask this question
So here I am facing a possible enging swap. The price is right... engine/trans for engine/trans... but of course I'm always real cautious when it sounds too good to be true. Anybody have any insight into an 87 mustang EFI 5.0L engine swap? Story sounds plausible, I'm just a little leary as I can see this turning into a big freaking can o worms. lol
I don't care about smog, going into a 74 and I don't need to to smog it in cali.
Just curious about what all I'll need. I'm assuming the engine mount location didn't change on those blocks. And the AOD with the newer 5.0L should almost slide into place of the standard C-4 that's in it now. I'm reading it might be a little longer which isn't too big a deal.
Any insight? Are those 87 Mustang 5.0L's any good?
