Cool Upgradeing to a 302

I,ve got a 2.3efi 1990 Lx Coupe w/T-5 tranny
and one of my friends is getting rid of his 1973 302 complete motor it,s getting ready for a tear down,the question I have is;where can I get the bellhouseing for this type of swap? oh yes I'm aware of the clutch size and I will be getting 10.5". Also will the stock motor mount from a 1990 5.0 fit on the 73'block? I heard the the convertables have the better mounts, is this true?


Thanks Mustangworks

Don't know if you already know this or already plan on swapping it but...

I think the T-5 out of a 2.3 is geared differently than a T-5 for a 5.0.

I read something about it in Fast Fords Magazine. A reader wanted to know if he could use a T-5 out of a car with a 2.3t for his 5.0. The magazines response was that they were geared differently.

If I am wrong someone correct me.
