Thank you for your response spent quite a bit of time on the internet looking into this situation and have decided I am not going to be putting that motor in that car. sounded like a good idea until I found out exactly what all it was going to entail to do it correctly. Although I plan to put the t5 and if possible the rear end in the 82 GT. Haven't really looked into it all that much yet I have no idea what it would take to put that rear end in the 82. I bet I can find that information on this site. Thanks againThere are way to many differences between a fox and that SN95 to even consider moving the ECM and wiring. I would get a 93 Cobra upper intake/throttle body setup and the wiring harness/ECM from a V8 fox. They also make replacement fox wiring harnesses that you could buy.
You'll also need to install all the fox accessories and brackets on the front of the motor.
Then you will want a fox bell housing and fuel pump setup.
Honesty you may be better off to sell the Cobra and find a V8 fox to use as a donor car.
Yeah pretty much given up on putting the 95 motor in the fox body car any idea what I should ask for the intake or the entire motor for that matter it still runs really good not sure what performance parts have been put in itI'd still do it, but with a nice carb setup on top. Sell all the EFI and cobra parts to fund your project. Swap the trans, rear end, front brakes, MC/booster and run it with a nice 4bbl carb on top with a decent cam. Should be a fun car.
That cobra intake manifold should fetch you a pretty penny.
Thank you for your response my level with electronic fuel injection is not in depth far as mechanical wise I've built promod motors with mechanical fuel injections so I'm pretty comfortable with any type of mechanics. But there's a lot of difference between mechanical and electrical fuel injection and I realize now I'm not at that level not for this swap anyway the older Fox fuel injections I think I can probably handle that but this one he is not that clearlyThe 94-95 electrical & computer systems are radically different between 82 and 95.
What is the level of your automotive electrical skill? Answer this question truthfully and accurately, and I'll give you a plan on how to best accomplish your goal. This isn't a bolt on, plug 'N play project if you choose the EFI path.,
Thanks for the info I understand that i should change K member for the modular motor to do it right. At this point dont want to get that deep into the chassis. I also want it a street car to a point anyway its for my 16 yr old daughter. But you have given me solid advice and i appreciate it.Here is what I would do:
Stick the engine, trans and rear from the 95 into the 82, grab a roller cam from somewhere (you have to decide where because I don't know what gear or tire size you will be running) stick a aluminum intake and a 4 barrel carb on it and go racing. If the funds permit grab a set of aluminum heads for it. I think the spindles from the 95 will work too and you get 5 lugs and better brakes, don't forget the booster/master cylinder to match the new brakes.
For help with the brake swap check out the 5.0 tech/how to threads.

My 95 cobra has a 5.0 in it, thats the way they came. Yours has a modular engine?
yes its way bigger not same motor as the 88 i had or the 82. looking on internet found modular engines n it looks like that. its a cobra maybe that makes a difference.My 95 cobra has a 5.0 in it, thats the way they came. Yours has a modular engine?
Sorry you have a cobra so disregard that comment LOLyes its way bigger not same motor as the 88 i had or the 82. looking on internet found modular engines n it looks like that. its a cobra maybe that makes a difference.
No kidding 500 that go along way towards a nice carb setup. This car also has full stainless exhaust that i don't believe i can use on the fox. Someone dropped some cash on that. Have you bought or sold any parts on this site? If so was it a good experiance?94-95 was still a pushrod 302. No k-member swap needed.
When it comes to donor cars for a Fox body, you've got a good one to start from. Use a carb setup and find yourself a correct accessory setup (don't use the SN95 accessories) and you can build a pretty bad ass setup.
As for what the cobra is worth? Need more info on it. Those 94-95 Cobra intakes complete go for around $500
I will get pics this weekend. May not be a 95 that's possible haven't seen title. Thanks for your helpI'm confused, are you sure it's a 95?
Pics of the car and engine maybe?
