2.3L to 5.0L
 

I own a 1989 2.3L mustang. I was thinking of converting it to a 5.0L. I was wondering what had to be converted to do this so if anyone knows what to do or knows a good website to do this it would be helpful.

The easiest way to swap a 5.0L over and have it be reliable is to get a 5.0L donor car. 5.0L cars have better brakes, drive axle, transmission, suspension, bigger radiator and don't cost much more any way.

If i were you i'd find either a 5.0L wrecked donor car, or i'd save up and buy a 5.0L otherwise, you'll be spending alot of money to convert a car that won't have much added value than before when you had a 2.3L.

Many magizanes have the conversion in them at one time or another. I have a 5.0 mustang magizane that has the swap in it.

Get everything from the 5.0 parts car. A complete parts car is the best. You might check wrecking yards for one that has been rearended or rolled over.
