WTB 5.0 accessories and hardware

OK here's the deal. I'm in NE Ohio first of all, between Cleveland and Youngstown. Working on a turbo 5.0 into 88 TC project.

I have a 5.0 complete engine here, but it lacks all accessories. I do have the braackets here from both an Explorer and a 93 Stang motor. No bolts, though. I plan to use the Explorer crank wheel if it makes a difference. I believe the accessory spacing is the same on it as the stang, but you might know better since this is my first 5.0.

So, I want to get the PS pump and hoses, A/C compressor and lines all the way to and including the drier, and all the hardware to attach it all to the engine. An alternator is OK, too. The bolts especially. I could also use the bellhousing bolts (T5) and a tranny crossmember.

It's too cold yet for much JY shopping, so I thought I'd see if you guys have anything. Anyone got a complete wasted motor or similar stuff you are tripping over?

Sorry to tell you but you will need to use the crank pulley off of the Fox body.The Explorer acc. are tucked close to the motor and nothing would line up, unless you used all the Explorer acc's.

Thanks for the info. I guess I'm looking for Explorer stuff instead of Mustang, then. If not, I'll have to machine something to fit anEDIS wheel behind a 5.0 crankpulley. It depends on what comes up, and for how much I suppose.
