I have my 91 GT, stock motor.
Soon i will be buying a 93 5.0 longblock.

I wish to build it up and then drop it in my car using the same tranny and rearend and suspension etc.

Any big problems i will run into???????

Since you are putting a v-8 in a v-8 car should be fine and have no problems. everything should fit just fine.

since the blocks/engines (although i think the 93 had hyper pistons) are the same, its like pulling out your current engine and dropping it back in.
