you will need motor mounts for a 5.0 to 5.8 swap you can find them form places like 50 resto and mustangs unlimited.com. Also you will need a fox body dual sump oil pan and timing cover. Which i think you can get form jegs. Hope this will help you out

like stated above you need the dual sump oil pan and either the lower motor mounts or a slightly raised cowl hood.
