Kevin,
Since this is your vision and your $$, my suggestion is to do your homework, talk extensively with your dealer about the problems you face with a Chevy motor in a car designed for a Ford, then once you feel you have a grasp for what is ahead then go for it! My feeling is it's a bit more than just motor mounts, with custom headers to fit the side pipes, transmission and driveshaft compatibility issues that need to be addressed.
As far as weight distribution, my SPF is 48/52 front/rear with my 460, so that will not be an issue.
Hey, good luck with whatever you decide to do, so just DO IT.....and in the end you will have a grin you just can't stop!
