That would be more like it but my buddy is a serious Ford Guy. There is a shop here in TX Dallas I believe that will do a mock up for a v8. He says they've done it before I tell him ill believe it when I see it.
Edit: my pos phone is stupid lol

5.0 Swap is SUPER Easy, they have a kit that comes with all the bracketery... But the snag is that the 5.0 is a dog of a V-8 putting down 280ish horsepower on a cold day. The 4 bangers are more than capable of doing that job with a little Boost. The one V-8 that stands out to my is the Ls Series motors, love to wack in one of those!!
