In response to your extremely creative wishes, you must take into account that a 4.6 is 4 inches wider that a 460cid motor. I know you have to do MAJOR renovation to get the 460 into the bay of that car I can't imagine what would have to be done for the 4.6. The advantage would be weight. Those 4.6's are pretty light aren't they? MY buddy ahs an all aluminum one in a cougar. Are thaey all that way. How much bugger is the t-45 than a t-5. Kits are available to put the t-5 behind a 351 in those cars I know for a fact. If it is n't much bigger I'd say it would fit. I know it takes some work with the persuader (a.k.a hammer) to do the t-5 swap. I say go for it. It would be something that noone else has. At least I've never seen one, and all I do is look at mustang stuff all day.
