I am trying to put a 79' 351 Windsor engine in my 78' mustangII. I need some help as to what motor mounts, exhaust system, etc. I would also appreciate any info on parts to use or if anyone has parts for my car? I need doors, bumpers, etc. I have no idea how to do this and anyone who can help thank you!! please help!!

Man, that's gonna be a tight *** fit, my 302 powered Mustang II only had about 3/4" clearance between the manifold and the shock tower on the passenger side as I remember.

I think it may require shock tower modifications.
