    Thunderbird V8

    I was also thinking of taking the 4.6 block out of my sister's parts car Thunderbird, and using my heads, elec. water pump, intake, exhaust, etc. on the Thunderbird block. Would this work? It's a 94, so would the block, bottom end, mounts, etc. be identical to a Mustang 4.6?

    I'm just looking to get it running again, and then just go easy on it until I can afford to build the original block up.

    im pretty sure 94 to 97 were all sohc 4.6 mod motors.

    mitternacht there are like 16 different vehicles that have that same exact motor in them if you have no luck let me know.
