I believe you can swap the 2v to a 4v (not 100%), but it'd be easier just to buy a 4v imo... Or you can also get a 5.4 Navigator block somewhat cheap and build that if you have the know how.. probably the best thing to do.

i already answered your question... twice, go read one of my other posts...

you seem to want it simple....

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/FORD-...spagenameZWD1V

buy that and strap some f/i to it, simple as it gets... not a bad price either... you will also need an intake manifold and some other stuff, im sure the guys at the shop will tell u as they overcharge u horrendsly for parts and labor this one is the cheapst 8.5 compression ratio you can find, the other cheaper one has higher compression and won't make as much power with f/i so just buy this since you don't seem to want to listen to any of the other posts.

Bolt on ls1 cars will kill mach1's...

In order for us to give advice, we need a BUDGET that you have in mind...

Something more definitive than "not too expensive"...
