Hi,
My daughter has a wrecked 88 gt manual mustang.We are working with limited funds,I can't find another gt cheap or even a v8 lx.She really like the hatch cars vs the notch cars.I have found several 4cyl auto cars around 500 dollars,even some with good paint.My question is do I need to get an 88 or will her powertrain fit in a newer car like up to 93?What will I have to change?I still have her whole car so I have alot of the parts I need,but will they fit.Are all the mustangs the same,regardless of engine size they came with or year,will everything bolt up or is it going to be alot of engineering?Do I need to change the fuel system,are the lines the same?Sorry for so many questions,I just respect you guys' knowledge and experience. thanks,jim

 

it doesn't have to be an 88. 87-93 will work. you will have to replace:

drivetrain- engine, tranny, rear end
fuel system
cooling system
wiring harness, computer
springs unless you like it riding low.

 

Will all those things bolt up?

 

yeah every thing should just bolt right up
