Pretty sure you'd have ti hack up the shock towers, a 351W will just barely fit and it's narrower than a 4.6...

Go ahead and put the big Windsor in it and you won't need a huffer to make power...

Car Craft ran a feature a couple years back on a 1st Gen. Mustang with a 4.6 4V in it. You're right, the shock towers and front suspension nedd some modification. Here's a link.

In the modular conversion forum there are a TON of 1st gen Mustang with mod swaps.
