5.0 mustang engine Accessories

[Yng_pnk]

I heard that 94-95 mustangs have a shorter front accessory drive than the 87-93's? Is that true?

If its not is there a combination of brackets that i could get to get some more room up front for the 5.0 conversion

yes, the SN-95's have a little shorter acc. than the 87-93. honestly, youd be better off getting acc. off of a wrecked 96-up 5liter explorer. those are the shortest out there. im sure you could make the stang acc work, but you may have to modify the core support and move the radiator around and possibly build your own fan shroud.

If i went with those ones off a 1996 ex and up would i have to use the waterpump off of a 1996+? if so does that fit on 87-93 mustang block?

 

[james t]

yes, the explorer water pump will bolt up to the stang block.

would i have to change my timing cover or are they the same?

 

[james t]

that i do not know. im almost sure they are the same, but dont take my word for it.

I think they are different only because I see them for sale all the time on corral.
