thats what solid mounts are for. Also, I linked to a web page of a guy doing a 6.8 v-10 and dropping it in like a 85 fox. He got it to fit under the hood with no modifications if I remember right.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.

I'd go with a 400 Ford but it will cost $$$ to do it right;)  It's basically a 351 Cleveland with a bigger displacement. Recently there have been build ups using a Ford 400 and 351C parts (heads, intake) and a custom cam that have made lots of power.

get out the magnifying glass and look at my signature pic.
