is there really that much of a difference from a 289 to a 302. The article was talking about cam differences. I will be looking for an efi set up as well. I was under the impression that I would be able to take it off and early 90s 5.0 car and would be fine. Granted I am going with turbos so there will be some other differences that I haven't accounted for yet.

im finding more info.... from the Ron Morris site:
86-93 MUSTANG 5.0 ENGINES
This is the easiest engine and EFI system to install for an EFI conversion, if you find a good donor car, most of the parts are reusable. Parts needed are throttle pedal, throttle cable, computer(pcm), all engine mounted EFI parts and sensors, MAF sensor and the wire harness can be modified for your EFI conversion if it is not damaged. The 86-88 (federal) and 86-87 (california) models are speed density EFI systems, that can easily be converted to mass air systems with a RMP wire harness and PCM. If you are looking to increase the output of your engine, than you will need to go with the mass air system.
These intakes have internal EGR passages, so if your conversion must be smog legal, this is a good intake to use, no extra work is needed. If you do not want to run the EGR system, it can be removed with the RMP EGR Eliminator kit

Here is another option. Buy a used Fox in good running condition, and strip all the stuff from it.
There are some really great deals if you are patient, and have cash.
I picked up a '90 GT w/5 speed, a 340HP FRPP crate engine, Vortech Supercharger, and a bunch of other goodies for $3,500.00 (floor pans were ripped up pretty bad). I played with the Fox for about 6 months, finally getting the car into the low 11.2x range, then stripped it and grabbed everything I needed for the '66. Then my friend and I sold body and suspension parts for super cheap prices to help out the Fox guys and gals around the area. My buddy and I split the proceeds of the $600.00 we made. Then cut up the carcus, and dontated it to a newly opened scrap metal place.
For $2,900.00 we had 6 months of fun, made some people in need really great deals on used parts, donated to a startup business, and I ended up with what's in the picture below (plus a set of 3.73 FRPP gears and an extra T5 for a road race build).
