Everything is different, Motor mounts, K-Member, but you might be able to make it with a fire wrench, Transmission, not only that it is computerized, it won't bolt up either, of yeah and a radiator from a 94 or 95 and aH-Pipe from a 94 or 95 But why the wanting to switch. Going to stock engine isn't gonna gain any horses, if going to the trouble go 351 stroked like a 393

i don't know. sorry guys. all of them stang magazines praise the 5.0 over the 4.6 a lot. i even read that the 5.0s already have forged internals. i know a guy who's just running a cai and a 150 shot of nitrous and he's hitting 11s.

The 4.6is not superior to the 5.0. But I guess it's all on how you define superiority.... Maybe the new ones are better in some points, but the 96-98 4.6's blow. The 87-92 Fox 5.0's are far better, they will take more abuse and they are cheaper to work on. Just my $.02 </P></FONT><edited><editID>karma279</editID><editDate>38003.837974537</editDate></edited>
