I have a 91 mustang coupe, I have a chance to get whole wrecked 2013 5.0 engine perfect, wanted to know what's needed for this swap anything needed off car and any other parts needed to make this happen. I have built 306 supercharged in it now, but price of 5,000$ for this 2013 5.0 seems like pretty good deal if the work to do this swap won't be to bad? Appreciate any help

Keep the built 306. For all the work you will be making the same power. Now if you have the money to mod the new 5.0 than that's another story.

I will deffently be doing work to the 5.0 before it goes in, just curious how much work is involved in doing this swap , Motor trams harness,anything else I know has to be a lot more? I have herd of people doing this swap already, but if it will be to much customizing, may be going with 331 crate motor from ford instead.

95 BLOWN GT

blown crate motor sounds better and less $$$.

You'll have to get a different transmission and driveshaft unless they make a modular style bellhousing for what you currently have. Headers or manifolds also have to be taken into consideration. Are you keeping the accessories?

If you were going to do it I would suggest purchasing the entire car or arranging to have access to it while doing the swap if you wanted to pull components instead of using a stand alone system.
It might be best to use the stand alone harness and ECU that Ford sells instead of trying to pull all of that stuff out of the car.
