T5 uses a different bell housing.

The 4 speed auto uses a different bell housing, torque converter and it is a different model box with many differences (I am yet to find out exactly).

You need a V8 k frame for EA-ED.

Depending on the gas system to whether you need to replace the converter and/or mixer etc, we need more details to what you already have.

Best to find a wrecked V8 EB to swap parts from, wiring harness, power steering hoses, A/C hoses just to name a few things you will need.
