I'm sure danny will chime in. You shouldn't have to many problems just change the comp harness. I think you might have to change your fuel lines running to your tank.

It will not plug in. It takes alot of modification to get it done. You have to run a change some pin programming, swap to a different computer, change a few connectors, and add a few sensors. It also requires an exciter ring to be installed on the balancer. Its not a simple drop in swap.

Its not that hard since its a 5.0 dont use the stock wires to make it easier on you get a sn95 donor car and get the whole setup and put in the 96 then it would be plug and play
