I am doing the swap now. Just pulled the old 302 and am in the process of stripping and cleaning the engine bay to drop in the engine. I am glad to give you as much info, costs, support as I go along. I should be finished with the conversion by mid-Jan. Doing it by myself, and Colorado cold slow things down a bit but I want to do it right the first time. Good luck, it has been a blast so far.

Also have some info @ my website, http://mustang.web1000.com/engine.htm I haven´t had time to update much there for a while, but I have a new site coming up soon.

Ooops.. forgot to mention, it´s not a 5.0, it´s a coverted old ´68 289.

I see the cone filters out in the open. Wind from the fan is not messing with the MAF?


Never had a problem. Maybe since I was using an electric fan that I only turned on after I turned off the car. Never had cooling issues :nice:

I actually had problems getting the car up to temp with the 185 thermostat I even replaced thinking it was that but nope still cooled like a champ with no fan and a piece of double sided aluminum insulation blocking the radiator. I wonder why, could never figure it out in the 3 months that I drove the car. My upper intake would get warm only after I turned off the car. :shrug:
