Default new rear end

hello-

ok I have an interesting chance to do something to my mustang.

as you guys know I have been trying to find out what rear end I have. and thanks to your help I have. but now no body has the part I need. so I am just going to upgrade the rear end now. I am going to buy A used 8 inch rear end. 2 different places said they would sell me on for around 300. is that A good price.

and since I am going to do that. I thought this would be A good chance for me to really look into dropping A V8 in. but not sure if I can get anough money saved up before the end of the summer(I am still in high school). so my question is if I went ahead and putt in the 8 inch rear end and hooked it up to my I6 now. later on when I get the money could I attache A V8 to the same rear end. I know there will be other changes when I convert to A 8 cyl. but right now I am just woundering if I could get the rear end and drive it till I save money to do the whole swap. but I don't want to have to buy two rear ends.

thanks for all your help.
