Default 351w

Lets say I decided to keep PWR steering, would everything mount the same as it did on the 5.0?

Ford used to sell brackets for the left and right hand accessoory drives on the front of the motor, that let you keep all the stock accessories that the 5.0 had and they were cheap. If I remember right, they had headers, mounts and oil pan also.

not sure about the mustang accessories, but the crown vic brackets allow you to use a different set of holes and maintain everything as it was including the belt. thats also where the 351W swap pans came from. they are factory 351W crown vic pans. auto zone sells them for around $85 last time i checked

I found this in this link.

351 Engine Swap - 5.0 Mustang & Super Fords Magazine

Your stock 302 power-steering and air-conditioning (if so equipped) brackets will not work on the 351W, but there's good news. FRPP offers a 351W Engine Swap Accessory Drive Kit for the '85-'93 Mustang that is available with the power-steering bracket only (M-8511-A351) or with both the power-steering and air-conditioning brackets (M-8511-B351).
Whatever exhaust system you currently have will work, but the headers you have (factory or otherwise) will not, again because the 351W is so much taller. MAC offers short-tube 351W swap headers (PN E358692) that will bolt up to the stock or stock configuration aftermarket H-pipe, as does FRPP (PN M-9430-A58 for '86-'93; PN M-9430 R58 for '94-'95). MAC, Hooker, Hedman, Coast High Performance, and a host of other manufacturers offer long-tube headers.

Good,

What kind of combo are you swapping? I've been thinking of a N/A stroker based 351 instead of my 5.0 Novi combo I am putting together. I like the idea of more cubes!
