V6 to V8 swap questions. Please help ASAP!

[95Stang]

Hi, I've got a 1995 Mustang V6 and I'd like to swap in a V8. I can get a 1995 Thunderbird with a 4.6L V8 in it. Will this swap, will it bolt my T-5 tranny? Will the IRS swap into my Mustang. BTW I will have the whole car. Please help, no other boards seem to know.

The 4.6L will fit in, and if you have the 95-T-bird that should be the first of the 4.6L blocks. Those first runs had the T-5 bolt pattern. BUT.......then you still have to worry about wiring and other details. The project won't be a simple drop in.

Thank you. I think I'll just look for a Mustang. Thanks.
