Default 4.6 to 5.0 engine swap in a 95 mustang

I have a 95 mustang gt that someone converted to a 4.6, and i am replacing it with a 5.0. My question is the person who put the 4.6 in the car would they have had to replace the k member or do they sell engine mount conversion for a swap like that. I need to know so i know whether or not if need to replace the k member. Because i was told in order to put a 4.6 in a 95 mustang you have to replace the k member, but i do not know cause i would think they would sell a motor mount adapter but i could be wrong. Please help any info would be great!! Thanks

if your k member is tubular and not the same color as the car, then yea they changed it and depending on what k memeber is in there, you will have to find out if its compatable with either engine. if you already have a 4.6 4V in there i would keep it that way. if its a 2V then yea switch it back if you have the money.

I think the K member can be interchanged. I am in the middle of swapping out a 1994 3.8 with a 4.6L interceptor and would definately be interested. Could you check and see if the K member is the same body color and let me know? Thx.

Why go to all that trouble to swap the 5.0 in again? You'll need the 5.0 exhaust headers, electronics, and a few other things.
I suggest you just swap in a pair of ported '99+ PI heads, '99+ intake manifold, camshaft of your choice, Accufab intake plenum/TB kit, headers, X-pipe, exhaust. If it still isn't fast enough for ya, supercharge the bugger.
