99 3.8 A swap 5.0 M info

I'm swapping my 3.8 automatic to a 5.0(89 302) manual. I've got a lot of questions on what all my car will need so if you can think of anything let me know. First order of business would be my radiator. What should I buy?

Are you going carburetor or EFI ?

You should be able to use the radiator from a 4.6 mustang your same year.

It will be fuel injected. Not sure what all I will need for that too. And thanks for the inpu in the radiator. I've got some cash stashed I'm gonna start ordering this weekend. Any other things I will need?

Do you have the motor and trans yet?
If so what do you have or what is it out of?
We need more details about your build and plans!

Yes I have a motor. And trans. It's out of a late 80's foxbody 5.0 n t5 trans. The car I have now is a 3.8 and an automatic
