F150 to Mustang motor swap Question

[NateDawgMN]

I have an '84 F150 with a 302 and a C6 that I have pulled and would like to drop into an early fox body. I'm looking at the '79-'86 body styles and I'd like to know if I would have any issues putting that motor and tranny into that body style mustang. Also, how difficult would it be if I found a clean LX 4 or 6 cyl car to put it in if I can't find a good LX 5.0 or GT?

Any advice or feedback is greatly appreciated.

the k member is not the same if the car that had a inline 6 in it. so look for a car that came with a 4 banger or a v8. if u car going to install a after market k member it does not matter. also i think 85 was the first year with the 8.8 in it. 86 most was efi so u would have to change the fuel pump

not all 85's have 8.8's maybe just the ones made at the end of 85 if any. if im not mistaken that truck motor isnt the same as a mustang motor either.
