Ive got a 351c that i wedged in a 1962 chevrolet c-10. its pretty quick, but the 5000 pound truck is just holding the engine back. so im contemplating putting the engine in a fox body. ive got a 92 4cyl fox roller that seems like a good candidate. any of yall done this swap before? is the 4 cyl suspension the same as the gt's? any tips?

The 4 cylinder suspension & brakes are different. See the sticky http://www.stangnet.com/mustang-forums/808661-technical-thread-how-index.html at the top of the 5.0 Tech forum. In it are all sorts of tech notes on upgrades and swaps.

I have one in my 1988 Gt out of a Torino. Me and my pops put it without hardly any problems. The headers are expensive though, but that engine has so much torque. I love it, probably one of the best sounding cars I own. Good Luck!
