Most salvage yards have a few laying around in need of a rebuild....

Look around on ebay too.

Its a very easy swap.

your best bet is probably to pull one from a fuelie f-150 or bronco, like 1986/7?-1996 (i think f-250's and 350's had some weird egr)

if u just need a block, pull it from any year

You will need a Mustang specific intake which most likely you will have to get aftermarket such as a Trick Flow intake.
