Well,, a while ago I was lamenting seeing more and more LSx motors going into new hotrods using GM's kit that included the motor, ECU, harness[es] and even the accelerator pedal so the total package is 50-state emissions legal.
This doesn't include the engine, and seems geared more for the racer than the hotrod/restomod croud, but Ford has apprently been offering a package for some time. Dunno if there's any emissions cert since that's not a problem for racing. It's also not a problem for hotrod/restomods but, politically, would make sense -- undoubtedly why GM is offering theirs since I'm not aware of any state requiring a hotrod or restomod to meet anything more than it's original year of manufacture emissions and most states have no such emissions restrictions on even new-build vintage-year cars.
Anyhow, here's the FRPP kit (http://www.mustangandfords.com/techarticles/engine/mdmp_1004_modular_engine_swap_wiring/index.html)
