Hello friends. New here. Some background. 68 years old, Married to the same fine Lady for 45 years. Two good men for Sons. One Grandson. I recently gave 3 of my Mustangs to the Boys. 66 A code 4 speed FB to no.1 Son, 67 S code 4 speed coupe to no.2 Son, 95 GT 5 speed to Grandson. I only have a 98 GT auto that I will be discussing what I want to do with it in another forum. Pleased to be here.

Welcome to Stangnet.

Look around our SN95 subforums ('96-'04). You'll get lots of information on your remaining mustang. Comment on any thread there. It's always good to have another brain to throw at what we do.

Maybe post a picture or two of your cars, we'd all love to see them.

Glad you joined us.

2016 drivetrain huh? That ought to be really interesting.

Will you start a thread here documenting the process? I'd like to follow along.

Welcome to Stangnet.

Look around the '96-'04 subforums, they will be able to help you out.

You say a 5.0 swap? Modern 5.0 or a pushrod 5.0?

Push rod 5.0. I’m in college that coyote is way outta my budget lol. I started the build roughly 6-7 years ago so I don’t think the coyote swap had become a thing until a year or two after.

You might look into the fox tech subforum for help as well.

We have a whole sticky on engine swaps.

I have spent some time looking there but the issue I’ve run into is the mid generation Sn95 K-member shift. When ford changed the K-member to accommodate the 4.6L Romeos and Windsor’s. The k member was shifted towards the rear In the 96-98 models adding an unforeseen bump in the road.
