Kmember from a 94-95 gt. Better bake it a 351w or better or your wasting your time.

The K mem kits are the same as for installation, which makes the pushrod swap a cinch in that respect. The A-arms are much narrower which will give the front end a narrower look and stance. Headers will need to be something like Kooks to get a good fitment and run solid motor mounts for a windsor set up to avoid height differences.

Let us know if you need more info, we've got the experience.
