What kind of info are you looking for? You need to be a little more specific, instead of turning this into one line questions, where you get one line answers.

Since you have a 5.0 from a Mustang, you're going to need to get the new body mounts from James Duff or somewhere else, but James Duff is about the best out there. You're going to need a tranny, and find the headers made for the swap, because the other one's don't clear or something.

Monty - I've been talking to a guy that does swaps and stuff, and he has a 5.0 EFI with tranny from a Mustang and it's been highly modified and he's gonna sell it to me, and help me put it in over a weekend sometime in the future. He makes a lot of stuff, and is going to make the adapters and w/e for the transfer case and everything, and while we're working on that, we're going to put on the lift
