I have an Euro 280slc parts car in which someone (who was very incompetent) tried to install a 5.0 Ford. He never got it running but he did get the engine in. He made mince meat out of the cross member simply because he did not know what he was doing, but it did prove that the engine will fit very nicely. I think that if he had altered the oil pan and perhaps had properly taken a little off the cross menber it would have fit very nicely.

I think that Fords are slightly narrower than a Chevy which will make it easier for the exhaust to fit. I'll let you all know in a copule of years.
