Default 5.0 lincoln swap

hi my name is ben and i have a 91 gt rolling chassis and a 5.0 ho out of a markVII i will be using a t5 out of a 4cyl mustang. does anyone know about sensors on these motors such as map/act/tad/tab/tps? are they interchangable? all plugs on the stang are still there and i was told it would be a plug in motor. what about mass air sensor? i have a (A9L) pcm but im more unsure of the engine will i need a new harness for the engine? any help is great thanks

It should go right in... all the sensors are where they need to be. The pulley brackets are different from a mustang setup, even the crank pulley is different size. The only difference up top is the heater hose setup toward the back of the motor. The computer should run the engine with no problems.

What year lincoln is it out of??

the motor is just a motor and it shouldn't matter if it was originally sd or mass air. But the car it is going is is made to run with mass air then youll need to use all the managemnt stuff associated with it. (pretty much the computer, wiring, and mass air sensor.) Use whats on the body.
