You might want to check out http://www.modularfox.com/ .

With that block you have a lot of work ahead of you. Why have you chosen this motor ?

i know it will fit in there. whether its an easy fit, that i don't know. but i know i've seen it. you may want to look at http://www.jegs.com/cgi-bin/ncommerc...23&prmenbr=361 they sell the cobra motor , transmission, and computer for $6000 . it is a leftover from the "2000" mustang cobra that never existed. im sure this is a lot cheaper alternative.
