1981 2.3 4 speed to 5.0 5 speed help

[Hollowfox]

Hey so I got a 1981 mustang 4 cylinder with 4 speed and i recently got this carbed 302 crate motor for it https://blueprintengines.com/collections/ford-compatible-small-blocks-302-c-i/products/bp302rctc. What other parts will i need for this to bolt up and run. I plan on getting the 5 speed trans to go with it unless the 4 speed will work?

You will need:

Bell housing
Clutch Fork
Cable
Pressure Plate
Clutch Disk
Flywheel
Throw Out Bearing
Firewall Adjuster
Pedal Assembly
Transmission
Shifter
Shifter boot
Shifter boot retainer
Clutch pedal switch and wiring if you have cruise


Somebody should be along with whatever I forgot.

Very helpful. Do you know if it will bolt right in with stock motor mounts?

Good call.

You also need a transmission cross member and maybe a V8 K Member.

I'm not 100% sure about the K Member.
