5.0 Conversion...

[jasonty]

Hey, I have a 92 XL, and I want to put a 5.0 in it... Is this a possibility? Mine has the 5 speed manual, so would a 5.0 bolt right up to my tranny? What all is involved with this? I know I have to change out the ECU and exhaust, but what about the wiring? Anybody know of any websites that sell a kit to do this? I'm looking for a reasonably priced kit too. Any help is appreciated...

Ok, well after reading that, I'm guessing my stock 5 speed won't bolt up to the 5.0, correct? I want to do this conversion as cheaply as possible. I bought my Explorer for $300, and all it needs is an engine. Can anybody recommend a company that sells a complete kit to install the 5.0 and T-5 into my XL? I want to spend around $1000 for the kit.... Thanks in advance folks!
