I got my whole kit from D&D Automotive. Headers, which they build themselves, oil pan, engine mounts, oil pump pickup tube, gaskets, etc. Entire kit was about $900 by the time the shippers took their cut. http://www.ddautospec.com/ . This kit was for a fox body swap so I doubt your 96 would be identical. Give Doug a call, maybe he can help. He was great when I worked with him.
I had some short fun with the Lincoln Mark VII with the 351C 4V installed last year. Wow, did that mark go! Now taking the swap out of the lincoln and installing into an 82 Mustang GT. Also swapping the axles, disc brakes, and steering. Not sure if I will swap the air bags. I like them but it is a lot o work.
So Far I found that D&D Automotive Specialties has an engine swap kit. Among their kits they have a 351C kit for a fox body bird. Comes with oil pan, pickup tube, H.D. engine mounts, and custom shorty/mid length headers. I have also completed the disassembly of the car. I estimate about 800 lbs of stuff came off the car. About 250 lbs of that is wiring. Anyone needing any parts (interior, wiring, etc.) let me know.
Thanks for the suggestion. Hedman #85620 may work. I am now working with Hedman to determine if they will. Correction on original post, the car is a Mark VII
I am new here so I may as well start a new thread. I saw another member posted similar subject in an old thread too. I read through the forum site but could not find a focussed thread that deals with installing a Ford 351C-4V into a Fox body T-bird/Cougar/Lincoln.
Here is first install of my project. I have taken a 1986 Mark VIII LSC that I was driving last year and gutted it. Here are a couple pics of what a 351C-4V looks like when fitted into the engine bay. All mounts lined up with original locations on the chassis. That was a nice win. However, it appears that I need a new oil pan. Found one from Milodon (#MIL-31127). Headers appear to be the real hurdle in this project. Anyone have suggestions of mfg recommendation for these?
My avitar is a pic of 351C just put in a 86 Lincoln Mark VII LSC. All motor and tranny mounts fit right up without any modifications from the original 5.0. Now I have to figure out headers and oil pan.
