Exclamation Doing A V8 Swap Have Some ???'s

I am in the process of doing a V8 swap on my '93. I have found kits on the web for installing a LS1 or LS2, but I have a '93 Ford Mustang Cobra that I am building a new motor for and thought that the old 302 would be nice in my rx-7. I can't find anything on install a ford motor in a 93-95. I could use all the help I can get. I work at a fabrication shop so it wouldn't be hard to come up with something, but I just wanted to know if anyone has done it already?? Thanks for your time!!

good start would be to check out v8rx7forum.com and also granny's speed shop. They have conversion parts in there ie engine cradles and driveshafts, well everything pretty much. If you want I can take a picture of my sbc cradle to give you a rough idea of what one looks like in there without an engine in.
