1996 Truck Engine

I have a 1996 F150 5.0 with a cracked block. I have found a 1988 T-Bird 5.0. I know the intake and some other parts will need changed but does anyone have the full scope on these changes?

Thanks for any help!

You need to strip the motor to the longblock and put everything from your truck motor on the donor, that includes intake, oilpan and pickup, valve covers, timing cover, crank balancer, distributor, and accessory brackets.

It sound like I would be better off to find a block to replace my cracked block and do a rebuild. It has a roller cam so what performance cam would be a good replacement for street use?
