Default Fox body guys come in

I have an 88 mustang GT T-top car, between working on the street glide and the trans am the poor ole mustang has been sitting on the back burner what all do I need to get an LS motor into the car and running eventually I'd like to do a turbo set up but want to get the car going and driving in the mean time I figure I'd hit it with nitrous until I get the funds to build a proper turbo set up

How do you all feel about carb setups? Should be alot easier to set it up that way

if those that have already done the swap could point me in the right direction and best sites to order parts from that would be great

Gonna be catching alot of **** from my buddys who have Mustangs so I gotta make sure I throw a setup in the car that wont have a problem gapping them at the track 🤣

Thanks

You’ll need the aje Kmember to set the ls in place. They also make the trans crossmembers. The driveshaft is around 46.5” if I remember right.

the gauges I just used a camaro cluster in mine and now all the gauges work.
