.

There are hundreds, it's been awhile, but I know there were kits at one time.
It was a big thing back in the '80's. Put a 496" & 505" in a little mustang shell.
They were light, and cheap. I would look around more, there are probably plenty of parts still being made or floating around somewhere. Can't help with where, I never paid attention to mustangs.

IT WAS A JOKE!!!!!

Gathering from that post of yours, I could tell that you didn't realize caps lock was on (your first letter was lower-case, and the rest were in caps - clearly indicating you typed a normal sentence, correctly using a capital letter at the beginning of the sentence.)

Im currently gathering parts for a bbc swap into my 1990 gt. I would like to see some picks. I bought my k-member from aje racing. They also make a transmission crossmember for a th400 and powerglide. Lemmons makes custom fit headers that fit and kooks said they will be coming out with some in mid summer.

My brother in law and a friend both did the swap with AJE K member and Lemmon headers. Both cars required a little massaging with interference between the K-memebr and headers (different places on both). A little pricey, but well worth the effort. A big block chevy can take twice the power a stock 302 or 351W can.
