I have a 1980 mustang with the 2.3 motor in it. It runs ok, but i want more bang if you know what i mean. I want to put a 5.0 in it, but i am not reallysure how to go about it. Do i have to get more stuff for the front end? What about tranny and rear end? My tranny is new, so i was hoping that it would bolt on. Any help would be cool.
