What Can I do...??

Okay so some of you guys might know I got my mustang for $100 because a lady at my work didnt have the money to fix the problems and she was going to scrap it.. So I saved it, Anyways today I came back from lunch and my boss says to me, You need to thank me and I was like ok why? So she hands me the title to a 1995 Lincoln Continental 4.6l V8 and says merry christmas to me. The only problem is it needs a transmission to make it run, but I was wondering, can I make this motor fit into my stang??, (Its the same motor thats in the 99+ cobra as far as I know)

Tips, suggestions on what to do with it are appreciated

it cant be from a 99+ cobra if its a 95, unless swapped. is it 32 valve dohc? i would think maybe 96-98. but i could be wrong.

thats what i thought too. those lincolns had some giddy up . i would think it would be a fairly easy swap as those are 4.6 in there ? and i agree go for it
