I'm wanting to buy a 2001 v6 Mustang and engine swap it for a newer 5.0 needing some help on how to do it. And would it even work.

It’s doable. Search the forum for coyote swap. Get ready to spend some money.

Yeah, I'd go another route. It'll cost a ton. And you won't have a cool factor in the 01. Now if you went Fox body or a classic that would be cool.
