really, if you have to ask, it's too much for you.
the easiest way is to find a wrecked 5.0 from the SAME YEAR to use as a donor for all the parts you'll need.

Thats pretty good at $1,900. I paid $4,000 for mine so thats not bad.
BTW I have an ORIGINAL 5.0 notchback with ALL black inti and only 83k miles.
But really it comes down to preferrence.
IMO you should just find a nice original 5.0 coupe.
