Motor swap questions

I have a buddy with a 67 stang that has a 6cyl. in it and he got a 302 from a 89 lincoln towncar and wants me to swap the motors.I've got some questions

I know i need new motor mounts.
I dont know about the oil pan does it have to be a front sump or what?
We're switching it from F.I. to carbed so i know i'll need a new intake and a carb.
Will the trans from the lincoln work or no?


And anyother help would be great thanks.

Mav,
First off, you can swap out the engine and tranny on that car with the Lincoln hardware. You'll need to get some '68 V8 motor mounts. Does that tranny have a link to the computer? How about the speedo drive...is it mechanical?

But, you shouldn't just swap out the engine and tranny on that 6 cyl. car without changing the front suspension and the rear-end. Which means you'll need four new wheels (to replace the 4-lug wheels currently on the car). I just did a 65 Mustang 6 cyl-to-V8 swap. It took 6 weeks (including paint work in the engine compartment) to complete.

Give us some more information. What other mods does your friend have planned?

In addition to the new intake and carb, you'll need a distributor that will work with your ignition of choice, a front sump oil pan/pickup and a set of the V-8 insulators & mounts. You'll also need a timing cover, brackets and pulleys if you want to use the '68 style front dress and/or a mechanical fuel pump.

The 89 AOD is a standalone unit, but you'll need a Lokar TV cable setup for it to operate properly. Be sure to grab the plug from the Lincoln for the neutral safety/backup lights harness.
