I have a 72 Lincoln Mark 4 that runs great. I want to know if I put this 460 engine into my 72 Mustang if its stock exhaust manifolds will also slip into the engine bay of the Mustang or will they create a problem. I like the idea of looking factory stock and don't want to build it up. Also will the stock Mark 4s oil pan fit in the Mustang?

does the lincoln have a front sump oil pan? the mustang came with the 429 as an option, so the 460 should fit just fine. i think the stock exhaust manifolds can be used with minor issues.
