First off, I know this is stangnet.com but all 5.0 tech forums seemed to be based on mustangs so oh well. I've recently started swapping a 1989ish 5.0 HO from a thunderbird into my 65 falcon and right now i'm under the assumption that every part is interchangable beetween the mustang 5.0 and the t-bird 5.0 which is in my falcon and has all the room for clearance in the world, and there is no difference in what parts fit. is that right??
also, my plan for this engine is cobra intake, underdrive pulleys, gt40 swirl heads, 70 mm throttle body (not sure on size yet, this is just a guess), bigger injectors, cam. roughly in that order, probably spread out over a year or two. i'm a machinist not a doctor so all this definately isnt going to be showing up at my door at once. is there anything i'm missing or other parts that are better for the money? i'm fairly new to all of this EFI bussiness. thanks for the help.
