I have a non police 99 crown vic. Does anyone know how much work would be involved in putting a fuel injected 5.0L interceptor engine/trans combo from a 2000 model year into my 99

Go to a couple of Mustang forums to see what all is involved with swapping a new 5.0L into a 4.6L engine bay. The easiest way is to have a donor car to swap everything over to yours.
If you are talking about the older 5.0 from the 1990's, you will need to start with the donor car as well.
And a fairly big checkbook.

It's just a SUPER-DUTY Mustang GT Sedan. 198K miles and still rolling HARD.
1997 Crown Victoria P71 SVT *** ex-US Marshall service (the CAR)
STOCK?? I bet it was modified.
13.26 @ 107.24 MPH 1/4 mi w/ me, tools, & full tank of 93 octane
I added CAI, NICHE 19 X 8.5 " wheels with 245/45ZR 19 rubbers, and completely rebuilt the front end with poly bushings, Kooks headers, 2 1/4inch exhaust, TCI 2200-2400 rpm Stall converter
.PLANS:: engine upgrade, 5.4L 2v stroker, rebuild interior in leather w/ buckets, thinking about turbos

Thanks for the tip. Im looking to buy an engine/trans used from a guy who says the combo came out of a 2000 model year crown vic interceptor. Does anyone else have a 00 intercepter with a 5.0L? I thought they had 4.6L with a few mods, not a different engine all together. I have the 4.6L stock in currently. Which is in good strong condition, given having 218k mi on it. But the trans took a dump on me. Was originally just gonna rebuild or replace the trans but i figured if i could get this used combo in without too much hassle it would be better.
