Default 5.0 mustang ls1 swap
I currently own a 1989 5.0 mustang and I'm thinking about pulling the 302 and tranny out and putting in a ls1 and a tranny that goes with it. What all does doing this swap entail? Thanks

if you search you wont find one damn thread about this very thing. its frustrating because so many people talk about doing this but never make threads about it

search "fox" or "notch" and you'll have 3 days worth of reading.

Here is my build thread.. I'm currently pulling everything from my 91 and sticking it in a 88 coupe. The 88 needs less body work and was to good of a deal to pass up.
