Alright guys im doing a 4 cylinder to 5.8 swap. I picked up a 1980 4 eyes for a really good price. I have everything i need BUT the fuel system. I cant find a single thing on it. I have a couple questions.

1. Will fuel lines out of a later model fox like a 1986 5.0 fit on it? If i remember correctly the 4 cylinder fuel lines run along the driver side. So could i just buy fuel lines off of a 5.0 and swap it over?

2.Does the 8.8 rear end bolt right up to the 1980? It currently has a 7.5 and im gonna get a beefier rear end but i don't want all the hassle.

Ill start a build thread as soon as i get everything sorted out! I have yet to find a early model fox 4cyl to 351w swap build thread. This should be an interesting next few months.

Actually guys i found a lq4 6.0 for less so im gonna go ls instead. fuel injected is hard to pass up.

LS swaps are like gay marriage in more ways then one. I wish it would just go away LOL

..... yall are making me rethink my whole plan damnit. At least I'm not getting a camaro...

LOL I would rather you get the Camaro and keep it GM then see a LS in a Ford but to each there own.
If I was doing it I would just get a A/M pickup for the tank and run the lines in Braided or a big aluminum line Yes the 8.8 will bolt in.
