The car had a 5 speed in it so i will run a 4 speed behind the 5.8. I don't know any good spots to look for mustang parts so if anyone knows of any let me know. |
The 351M is not considered a desirable engine swap for the Mustang. It is a torque monster, but it's larger size and lack of aftermarket components make the swap both more inexpensive and impractical.
What are your goals with the swap?
