I wouldn't do it. Put in a 4.6 dohc, 4.6 PI, or a 5.4 triton. Its easier and you can get just as much power out of em.http://www.geocities.com/v8thunder54/triton.htmlopcorn:

To swap in a 5.0 you would need the computer and wiring harness from the mustang and the engine mounts from an earlier 5.0 MN12 (1989-1992) Thunderbird or Cougar.
