Man, I drive a 1990 Thunderbird with a 3.8, to do a 5.0 swap IS NOT WORTH IT, sell the car an just but a T-bird sport with the 5.0 already in it, plus if you wanted to do a 5.0 swap you would have find a 5.0 parts car anyway. Wiring harnesses, motormounts, transmission and the stock 7.5 inch diff ain't gonna cut it with a 5.0, so you have to swap out the rear end and drop in a 9 inch.

3.8 s/c swap is way easier and about the same power as a 5.0 if your set on a v-8 why not a dohc out of a mark 8 275-300 hp vs 225 for a 5.0
