Motor----which isnt cheap at all
wiring harness
computer
transmission
bell housing,
clutch
flywheel
drive shaft
8.8 rear end
fuel tank
and your fuel setup would have to be modified as well



have we scared you away from the idea yet?
not to mention your speedo will be off and you'll need a new one.
also brakes and suspension should be looked into as well
if not breaking and cornering wont be so good


so basically you'll be changing about everything but the frame


OOOPPPS!!
for got radiator and radiator hoses


you want prices?
tranny-$2500 for full swap
flywheel-$200-400 depending if you want aluminum
clutch-$200
radiator and hoses-$200-500ish
fuel setup- $500 you need pump and the tank and the lines
8.8-$300-$1000 or more
drive shaft is only like $170-250 you might be able to find someone that got an aluminum driveshaft and is selling the stock one
the wiring harness and computer lol haha my fav. check out your ford dealer and just see how much the price is on one...unlesss the motor comes with it

the motor- you dont wana know
