Why cant you? Just swap everything like you would for a 2.3 swap.

Go for the 88-93 5.0L 302 "FOX" Body mustangs a.k.a. Aero Nose, these have a ton of aftermarket parts, are readily available for cheap, forged pistons, easily can be built to 350rwhp with a head,cam, intake swap. As with any vehicle look for rust, mileage, interior condition, motor maintenece, inspect suspension components for broken welds/abuse. Good Luck

i maybe wrong,but i just dont understand how the 4 cycl. can be stronger suspension when they have weaker springs. i know they are better as for as having less abuse on them for flexing issues from torque and all, but everyone ive seen had weaker springs. now that is the only real thing about it ive really compared on them so if there is others please do share. knowledge shared is knowledge gained.
