Swapped a 5.0 for a V-6?

Nest question in my quest for knowledge. Has anyone swapped a 5.0 in a V-6 body? Guess the most important question is do the motormounts line up. I plan on building an engine from scratch to just toss in and can get the wiring from painless and all the other parts I need (accessories) from a trip to the junkyard. [sm=icon_beat.gif]

One of my buddy had a shop do it for him in his 94.

It can be done, I just got the new 5.0s and superfords in and a guy took the 4.6 out of a 05 stang and put a blown 5.0 in it. LONG LIVE THE 5.0s!

I know about anything can be done if you have the $$ and the want. Just curious I guess how much fab work I would have to do. Was thinking it might be cheaper since I am going to build a 347 either way that it might be cheaper to get a v-6 body than a GT. Gotta say I do like the GT's much better and would prob be better off just getting one.
