well lets look at this.. they come with V8s.. its most likely the same 4.6 thats in mustangs, you can swap in an LS1 by modifying the stock motor mounts... so by my estimates it would be as easy as swapping it into a mustang, which is pretty easy..

ah, didnt know that
anyways, you can just make motor mounts, getting the motor physicaly in the car is about the easiest part of a swap. only in a very few cars do the LS1s not physicaly fit

As stated above, the LS V8 is not the 4.6, it is the Jag 3.9L A group of Ford guys ran an LS in the 2004 One Lap of America with a Kenne Bell blown 4.6 in it so it should physically fit.

Yeah but you want the stick not the auto that's why you go with the V6 and 5 speed so you have the pedals and such. Swap in the LS1, T56, shortened driveshaft (maybe) and away you go.
