Has anyone done this swap? I could use some help. I think I have everything I need, but I'm not sure about the k-member/ motor mounts. Will the 4.6l motor fit on the 94 -2.8 motor mounts, or do I need a different k-member? I'm iching to get this in, but I don't want to start if I don't have everything I need.

u got the tranny, computer, harnesses, obviously the complete engine? Are the drive shafts the same? Im pretty sure the k-member and motor mounts wont match up.

How much are u paying? I think its better money spent on a h/c/i 5.0. Or is it a v6? Did u mean 3.8 motor mounts? If its a a DOHC 4.6 then hurry up and get it in with a whipple on top!

Why do you want a 4.6 in your 94-95. You are almost better off buying a 96+.

It's the intakes that suck, not the heads. Only real thing wrong with 96-98 heads is the valves are crap.

if I were ever to swap a mod motor, it would have to be a 5.4, 4V 4.6, or 03-04 Cobra motor, good luck though.

There was a hot Fox body with a navigator 5.4L V8 in it with a twin turbo setup. It was sick. The only bad thing was that he had ricer mufflers on it because he couldnt get our design mufflers on it for some reason.

Ya, its the yellow one in Volume 17, Issue 09 of Muscle Mustangs and Fast Fords. I'm sorry it's a single turbo setup.
