Lots of data on this engine available on the internet. Get a dimensioned drawing and start measuring your engine compartment. This is a WIDE engine and has a few gotchas around the oil filter area.

perfect. Thanks.
I’ll do more research because I didn’t find much but my wife had “ask” as our search engine.. probably why I got frustrated because there was very little info on basic stuff.

They fit quite nicely. I have a Mustang II IFS as well. Any specific questions I can help with? As Charlie already mentioned, the biggest issue is the oil filter, and it's easily solved with a remote filter adaptor. P.S.....Welcome to FTE!
Pictures are always appreciated.
