Hey everyone,
I'm Drew and thanks for the add to the group.
I look forward to going through this group for my mustang answers.
There is a 68 coupe protected by a layer of moister absorbing and UV blocking protection (sawdust) in the corner of my garage.
I just purchased a 2000 Explorer with the 5.0, as a donner vehicle. It's starting to get cold here in Ohio, I'll be putting some time in.
I've never done a motor swap before. Hopefully, I can save some headache from advice from the pros.

Thanks in advance,
Drew

Drew, I can tell it’s going to be interesting to have you here. Even the typo or autocorrect “donner” instead of donor is thought provoking. I first thought of a winter vehicle for the Donner pass, then I realized you meant it for parts cannibalism. So the apparent error was exactly the right word.
And I want to see a pic of this protective coating.
Welcome!
