Why would you want to drop a Chevy 350 into a Ford? I hope you meant to say 351?
To answer your question, yes it can be done. It will take some time, money, and you should be mechanically inclined. Do a search on this topic, it has come up a few times in the past. You'll find the basic info you need there.

Well, the 4cyl mustang is pretty light, but that motor just sucks and is nothing even though it's lighter compared to the 5.0. Now you do know that the 351 is a 5.8L engine and that block is heavier and bigger then a standard 5.0 engine? I think you would be happy with a 5.0, there is a plentiful aftermarket for them.
Anyway here's the post I think you were looking for.
