your question is to general so here is an answer anywhere from a little to alot........I found a rolled 85 gt for 650 and when I was all done after selling parts off the donor car and I went carbed = cheaper I had a total investment of 300.00 in the swap......find a donor car or the swap will be rather expensive

I may be doing a V8 swap on my 85 notch eventually. I bookmarked this page with some information.

well my plan is to find a 5.0 to drop into a 81 fairmont that has a 4cyl currently so i was wondering the approach i should take, and how much more expensive/hard is it to do fuel injection?

I'd guess you'd need a wiring harness for fuel injection and a comprter from a mustang. I have no idea from there. It would be cheaper to go carbureted.

bout 250 for the wiring and computer make sure its the right year, and it all depends how good of an intake and injectors you wanna get.
