Yes it would fit, with the proper swap kit. It's just a bored and stroked 460. :grinno:

http://coolcats.net/cotm/1999_07.html here you go there is a 460. Looks like there is enough room to me. If you do get one, I have links to a 460 engine mounts for a fox body.

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.
