Me and a bud of mine put a 350 into a 94 Stang. TPI FBody manifolds is what he uses for all his swaps, especially for S10s. We made everything else ourselves. Uses the factory everything that we could. Which includes the rack and pinion, tranny mount, and pretty much everything else.
Everything went in easy except the steering... We had to make a 4 or 5 knuckle shaft to the rack and pinion that snaked all over. Other than all of that crap, that Mustang never went faster!
