Do you mean old-school SBC? Probably have more luck on a mustang forum I would think, I know I've read about people doing this. People use ford rear ends with sbcs all the time, so I bet you could just mimic those setups, make some motor mounts, get a driveshaft cut and throw it in there. Complete speculation on my part though. No idea how you'd wire it up.

Parts list will include all the acc, motor/trans, motor mounts, tranny mounts, custom cut drive shaft, and maybe a conversion u joint to mate up mix matched parts.

Just swap iin an lm7, i've seen full pullouts for around 1k All you need to do is install it, remove vats and turn the key.
