Sparks280zt Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 i dont think anyone makes a ford kit, and most guys using ford engines fab the mounts up themself. Plus i dont think anyone has a 4.6 in a Z Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dayz Posted July 20, 2005 Share Posted July 20, 2005 If you do a search for 4.6 Ford, you will find info such as: it is to wide to fit without any major structural modification in the Z car engine bay. That is the main reason if I remember correctly. It would be great to have one, go for it !!! And search Dayz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
randy 77zt Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 i work as a ford tech at a dealer.the 4.6 is wide but the spark plugs are in the intake area so once you get the engine in it wont be a problem.exhaust will be a problem on drivers side.if you do the swap get the ford evtm for the original car.the evtm is the wire harness diagram book.nobody else had done a 4.6 yet.the 2000 up motor revs more freely.good luck.iif i was going to do this i would cut the mounts off of the crossmember and build a separate crossmember to hold up the engine to mount it back against the firewall.
