You don't need to change the rear axle. If you do this swap install a modern 5 speed transmission. Be aware that this swap will reduce your cars value considerably. Why not rebuild the original engine?

Thanks!! I’m well aware it’s only temporary. my plan is to rebuild the original engine with a thumpr or stroker, so for now I’m going to buy a crate just to keep the mustang going.
