looking for a 351W swap kit for a 1986 5.0L mustang

joecool458 · 07-25-2009

I have an 1984 LX Mustang with a 302 engine, I would like to swap it for a 351W out of my 1984 Bronco. The 5.8 engine is carburated and complete, ready to be remove. I need to know besides hood clearence and going to a electrice fan for my radiator what else do I need. Can I use the stock pullys, oil pan, and what kind of clutch should I use for my T5? Is there a complete kit that can drop this engine in place, without much headache? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome to the site. We did my friends 5.8 into his 89 and used all of the parts and his T5. Got rid of the factory headers and went with a set of long tube.

set of 351 swap long tubes, 351 swap oil pan.

i have seen some kits out there, but ttop is right the only thing special is the headers and pan.

sounds like a good swap!
