word of advice......I'd reccommend you purchase a repair manual from your local parts store to help aid with your installation

Make sure that it is the 5.0 HO motor. Friend of mine bought a 5.0 motor out of a Lincoln from those same years and it had a different fire order. Funny thing, he pulled the heads and one piston had valve reliefs the other 7 had none?!
