5.0L (1979-1995) MustangTechnical discussions on 5.0 Liter Mustangs within. This does not include the 5.0 from the 2011 Mustang GT. That information is in the 2005-1011 section.
If its a 5speed it will fit with the proper bellhousing, however I wouldnt expect a very long lifespan out of it in this setup. Alotta guys around here are doing this for budget 5.0 swaps into 4cyls.
Yea, theyll fit. But I bet most people arent doing it properly and getting a very short life out of em. You need to get a pilot bushing made out of bronze/brass. Otherwise the input shaft wont be supported properly and the trans will have a very short life. I had one in my '79 it actually lasted longer than my 5.0 ones.
