Default 2005 Mustang v6 to roushcharger v8 conversion
Im looking at swapping my v6 to a motor that was taken out of a roush speedster. The package comes with engine/trans, computer, wiring harness, supercharger, o2 sensors, exhaust, driveshaft, and crossmembers. I was wondering what else is needed to get it going

A 8.8 rear end will be needed for the jump of power you will be getting, GT500 fuel pump would be better my guess is.

The routing of the A/C lines are different between the 6 and the 8.

Just buy a MKIII Cobra Kit car and drop the engine in there.
