Well, i would assume you need:

Custom motor mounts
Custom Intake
Transmission
headers
Voltage Regulation system (not sure if your windsor had one)
larger radiator (probably with custom mounts)

Theres probly a few things i have left off, but thats what came to mind.

I'm not real up on the '90s era Mustangs, but wouldn't the parts (motor mounts, radiator, etc...)from a '95 V-8 Mustang work? It had the 302.

The 351 block has a taller deck height than the 302. The motor mounts and trans will interchange. The flexplate/flywheel will to if you have the correct balancing. Same thing with the timing chain cover and water pump.
