Default Motor instalation

I am looking for info from a fox body enthusiast. I am building a 1985 Thunderbird, and am looking to drop in one of my reputable 327 chevys. I read that the fox mustang (89-93) and the thunderbird (84-87) have several interchangable parts. Are the motor mount kits that are available for the fox will assist me with my instalation. Also how do i id the rear ends that are available for those cars? What is the width of a fox mustang rear end? Does anyone have a set of drag lites or aluminum slots; 4 hole front/ 5 hole rear they want to sell? Any info is more than i have now, Thanks

I'm suprised there isnt any flaming yet here. Not sure about the ability to swap the motor mounts on them. there are 2 types of rear ends that can be possibly in them. a 7.5 or a 8.8. I think the thunderbirds came with the 7.5. You can usualy tell the difference by the size. look in the selling section for the wheels.

Also, you may do well to post this in the 5.0 section to get the attention of the fox ppl.
