    V8 falcon mounts will get the motor in but there will be some trans crossmember modifications needed for a 5 speed,check with mustang vendors as there are 5 speed kits available for the early mustangs. You will need a front sump oil pan and clutch linkage and a bellhousing if the motor is from a late model. Jeff

    V8 Fairlane mounts will work from 1962-65 as well as the 1965-66 V8 Mustang mounts. These cars are pretty much based on the same platform.
