Yeah, you need a chip to get rid of the speed limiter or you can only go around 75mph or so, I remember that well when I got my 4.10s in v6.

Nah, how about you guys come-on up. There's no way I can haul the 8.8 in my mustang. And don't even think I'll put it on top.

you can do the swap with very little needed, the hardest part is getting the drive shaft off (unless you have to reuse your axles then thats the worse part if you dont have abs its very easy)
i would get a friend to help you here and there but its a pretty easy swap
