Why not this one. These guys build engines mainly for nascar but they have few street engines.

You would have to do fox body conversion, water pump, intake, oil pan but it would be producing far more power then that ford racing engine.

That's a great motor. Ford Racing goes to the extreme in putting together extremely high-quality reliable crate-engines. Let me know if you are seriously interested in purchasing one, I will get you a custom quote. Looking forward to helping you out!
