I'm retiring in a few months and I wanted to start getting together parts for my 1965 coupe. I was wondering if you could use a 5.0Lout of a 1992 F150 in a coupe and what had to be changed? Not sure which forum I should ne asking ? Could someone point me in the right direction?

Sticky: I6 to V8 conversion

I6 to V8 conversion Ok, since we get asked this question about 9 times a day, I talked to the mod and got permission to start a sticky thread for this. What will I need to convert my 1964 1/2 to 1970 Mustang to a V8 ? Power Plant: You are going to need a complete engine. This means...

5.0 will fit, swap oil pans, mounts, deal with 50oz to 28 oz balance on flywheel /flex plate.
Then decide what intake and engine front dress to use. 65 kind or 5.0 kind

I was thinking about a AOD, just want something to cruise around in. Do you have any other suggestions? Still haven't decided on rear end yet. Thanks for your help
