Need a list... LS1 mustang swap
I have a 95 GT I want to put an LS1/T56 in. I need a complete as it gets list of everything I am going to need so I can price it out. I can't find this anywhere. Thank you in advance.

I mainly mean as far as any specialty stuff to make it work in a SN95 mustang. Thought someone may have done it. I may just stick with a big windsor motor but a h/c/nitrous ls1 would sure be fun in my light lil stang

There's a few folks in this section who are working on or have completed LS1 installs into an SN95. There's even more who swapped into a Fox. Both are directly comparable to your car, since Ford didn't change the car a whole lot from 1979 to 2004.

I believe the 95 K-member is the correct one and you use the 4.6 mounts. I think I am going to go carbuerated to save myself a lot of trouble. I'm going to do a 6.0 iron block with forged rods/pistons, ls6 ported heads and probably a texas giant cam or MS3. Can I use my 4 row radiator? And what do I have to do about the hydraulics for the clutch? And do I use my pedal assembly? I need to know whether to keep it or not.

1996+ K-member is the 4.6L, I have no idea if the SN95/Fox (1994/95) K-member will work. One gent just found the 6L block doesn't have the bolt holes to use the modified 4.6L Mustang motor mounts though.

Are you the same "I8URLS1" from TRS?
Anyway, use the search function There are many threads in here addressing all of your questions.
Here's a free one: The AJE k-member doesn't work as well as they will tell you, I'm in the midst of my swap using this k-member and the oil pan rested on the rack (flaming river at that) and touched the k-member as well. It took 3/16" spacers between the block and mounts to correct, and even then it's still close. The mounts they provide are urethane and luckily the motor doesn't move...so it should be ok except for vibration.
