hi, new member here, I have a 95 Mustang gt w/stock 5.0L with 80,000 miles.(K&N FIPK, and underdrive pullies only mods done)
now I am a car dealer(used) and bought a 2001 F-150 Lightning w/the 5.4L supercharged, with 32,000 miles, the truck is total junk (R title) (meaning total loss or reconstructed title) now I want to put this motor in my mustang . it is a 5 speed like i said with the 5.0 now.. can this be done easily? I bought this car new in 95 and never wrecked it, I just want more power and I got this great 5.4 just sitting there. what will i need? the ecu is set up for the truck with automatic, can i just chip the ecu in the mustang? any help guys? Thanks guys so much And no i wont sell the motor. LOL 95StangGT5.0 |

Re: Need help W/Swap
You'll need the ECU also, now that I'm on that topic PATS is one thing you're going to have to figure out. I know you can have a dealer disable it so you can start the car or you could swap in the parts you need to make it work. Also the lightning used a returnless fuel system so you'll need different fuel rails so you can use your return style fuel system. Plan on getting that thing on a dyno and having a tuner work his magic. Also going to need some work done to your h/x-pipe. The good thing is you have the truck so things like powersteering/ AC should be easy for ya. The best thing I can say is read as much as you can about this project before you ever start. Here's a link to one of the modular swap forums.
