Re: what needs to be done to put a 5.0

Both are Fox chassis........so it's going to be almost a direct swap over. The harness in a 87 T-bird is close to a 87 mustang. You might just be able to just transfer all the parts over. The sheetmetal is really the only difference between those T-birds and the mustangs.
