Well I didn't think it was too bad of a discussion until I hit the part about Chevy designing Ford's 302!

Then calling the 4.6 a small engine. Maybe small displacement for an American V8 but you ever look at one of those puppies? Dang that block looks almost as large as a big block! Makes the little 302 block look tiny.

Hmmm yeah...my dad and I test drove an old 83 Tbird with the V6 in it...it was SLOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW. Even my SO at the time just blew it away. 5.0s are strong, reliable engines and get good gas mileage! And then there's the aftermarket...

Jeremy, I'll document everything..... Infact it looks as if the best donor will be a late model F-150 with a 4.2 and manual trans.....If I can find one at a yard with a good motor that is....

Cool. Will the 4.2 intake fit under the hood?

I doubt it..... the issue seems to be with the top mounted IAC. Nothing a sawzall and a custom cowl can't fix though. To top it all off I want to retain a return style fuel system. The engine management setup will be the biggest hurdle.
