Yeah, 2 is funny, but 3 is very practical.

The benefits of putting a 5.0 in a 4 cyl body is that the body is probably in better shape because it isn't under as much physical stress. 4 cyl Mustangs are also a lot less expensive than 5.0s. Why pay a lot more for something you plan to replace with the engine you have? If my frame were to crack, or my torque boxes were thrashed, I would probably just buy a 4 cyl LX and move all of my performance parts over.
