RE: 351 windsor swap
If you have a GT, it's not worth IMO, unless you stoke that Windsor. Now we're talking
If you plan to do this regardless, it will be a lot easier with a carbuteror set-up.
Fabrication will be in motor/tranny mounts and custom DShaft. You'll prolly need a different fadiator, custom PS/AC hoses.
If you go fuel injection, you will need an electronic Guru.
If I can find another LL, preferably a sixer, that's what I'll do... 427ci out of the 351 block and 500+hp at the wheels N/A. All of this matted to a six spd tranny, yes!
Anyway, good luck. I wanna see this.

BMR makes a k-member for the s197 to put a windsor swap with the mounts. You also get to use the stock Power Steering Rack. You just need a tranny, DS and wiring. I already looking into it. Check out BMRs website.

Its the KM012. That will be all you need.
