if you're calling it a junker, i'd find a 5.0 car. insurance wouldnt be THAT much more expensive.
im from Mass, am 23, and im only paying 60 bucks a month for my 5.0.
probably wouldnt get that much for the 2.3 and tranny setup.
just my opinion, would save alot of time and money piecing together the swap and switching out suspension, rear end, and wiring, not to mention all the motor parts and sensors etc.
BUT, if your up for a big project then GO FOR IT!! nothin cooler than working on a stang (IMO)
