nope no welding involved, unless you snap some brackets or something. just be careful. 5.0 bolts into the 4cyl engine mounts, same location. i would buy new mounts as long as your there, though. dont use the 4cyl mounts.

How come you did not make out with the insurance? Did they not want to give you blue book for it? Isnt that some ****? You pay them for years ON TIME and when it comes time for them to pay they fukk you.

umm. I'm not sure if I am confident to do the job. I am no mechanic. I just lost my job at 128 Volvo. They let me use a bay after hours when I wanted. I meet a few bright Mustang knowledgable mechanic's. It's two soon to buy make my decision. I got to find out if my transmission is alright first. Thanks for the contact.
