You sound as crazy as I am! I'm in the process of fitting a 5.4 Lightning motor/tranny into a '65 Mustang FB. Height was my major problem. I could make it fit, but needed more hood scoop that I wanted. After converting to a Mustang II front end and mocking up the adapter plates for an '03 Cobra blower with a modified Lightnig innercooler using plywood, the whole thing fits under a '65 GT350 box frame fiberglass hood. Machine shop has the intake and is fabricating the plates as we speak. Hope to finish up floor pans and get the body to the media blaster later this month. Have you rigged a by-pass for the computer security, if not how do you plan to handle the security issue?

I am using a stand alone engine management system so PATS is not an issue.
As a side note the only real clearance issue I had is with the fuel tank. I had to have the front inside corner removed to clear the front drivers side cylinder head.
