I actually meant swapping the wife!

How did you know?

Kiddin' my friend...
We all know that it's a money pit and that's why you see very few cars with engine swaps.
Unless you plan to go all out like PLStang, it's not worth the dough IMO.
A carbureted stroker is still appealing though.

PL either has too much time, too much mechanical knowledge, too much good fortune, or all of the above. Either way, God Bless him as he has on bad a$$ car.

But no matter what more info is needed....it's not about who is better it's about common courtesy....so to answer as you have posted ,,,, yes it will work....

I was assuming that everyone on here knows about cars, as in the drive train consists of the motor, trany, drive-train, rear-end, etc. I understand that knowing the year of the receiving car could be necessary, I don't really care, Defiantly a mustang, so for argument sake, let's say it's a '67 fastback. I appreciate the desire for respect on the forum, however, I mistakenly said I had an '06 GT500. Granted, mine is an '07, they DID make an '06 Shelby. Granted it was a 350, it was called the GT-H, so I'm sorry for my mistake. I mean that. My question is straight forward. What is needed to swap the entire drive-train from the '07 GT500 to, let's say, a '67 fastback body. I'm sorry if y'all are mistaking my understandable frustration with anger and disrespect. Please understand that I just want some assistance with this project.

dude there is no reason 2 be a dick about this situation at all...

in regards 2 ur project the man u want to talk 2 about making a gt500 drivetrain work w/ a gt shell is PLStang...

and that whole gt500H think... thats weird i have never heard a single thing about it... are u sure u dont mean the Shelby GT-H? that was made for hertz...

and btw i was never trying 2 be a dick, arrogant, put u down, or not help u. I just thought it would be important for u 2 kno there is no such thing as a 06 gt500...
