so im pretty set on the 408 right now...i think im gonna start buying the parts and stuff while im over here and when i get outta this hell hole ill have something to do....what all do i need for a 5.0 to 351w swap?
is there a way i can keep my svo hood?

i know that some tubular kmembers drop the engine a lil.......i seen one article where a 351w stroked to 427 fit under the stock hood......combine that with some vert motor mounts and i think it will work....

i run a upr k member and solid motor mounts and my 351 fits under the stock hood with a vr jr intake and nitrous plate but i can't run an air cleaner

FI or carb

All of your current top end will work.. or any top end for a 5.0, excluding the lower intake, thats the only part you will have to change if you are keeping the FI, if you are going carb'd you don't have to worry about it. I belileve you will need a specific oil pan made for the 351 swap into a fox, and different headers. Someone who has done this already can correct me if I'm wrong.

im goin carbed with an 850 mighty demon i think but i really want to get this beast in without having to buy another kmember....can i get any shortened motor mounts? if no....what is the upr k member costing these days?

 

[RandoGT]

there's a guy i know that has a Tubular K and a coil-over kit he was gonna sell me for the Fox that i'm buying from him but i decided i don't need them. you need his number to get it for cheap?

 

[usmcsawgunner]

yea if you could pm me with it...

 

[EastYorkStang]

Can you shed some light on this K member that lowers the engine?

 

[89LX347]

your gonna love the 408

 

[Nice 5.0]

My dream motor!

 

[ryans88gt]

850 might demon is to big if you are going to run it on the street. 750 will be perfect. A 750 mighty demon flows around 825 cfm.

I would get drop motor mounts and you should have no hood clearance problem.

If I were you Id build the clev man but thats just me Im hooked on them. but yea you need a k member, header and oil pan for that specific swap. and trust me it aint easy
