Tons of Fox swap builds on here.
Pretty straight forward for the fox specific swaps
These are the basics
Yes the AJE K-member is prob one of the most common
AJE also has a swap transmission cross member that I believe for the 4L65
custom-length drive shaft, Chevy yoke and ford tail
headers: Kooks, re-worked 351W, there are others
radiator: use the F-body rad and fan (easiest) use fox style rad as well
you can use a standalone wiring harness: pick a brand or re-work truck, f-body or vette wiring harness. You will need to know what ford wires to connect things to if you are retaining the ford wiring as well. Some basics are switched hot, 12V constant, fuel pump wiring
You can always go carb and get the standalone ign kit--this is prob the easiest method
gauges: f-body, use custom gauges, make the fox style work
I dont know if the 4L65 is controlled by the PCM or requires a
separate controller
If you have the 4cyl car, then you prob still have the 7.5, so you need to look into getting a 8.8 from a V8 stang
This sounds basic but they make the fox swap pretty easy--with that said I should have mine done and its still 2 years into it, but if you have the parts inhand, it goes pretty together pretty fast
Im sure there are others that can add on top of my inputs

One of the most straight forward swaps due to the massive amount of swap products available.
