The GT 500 uses an iron block with a wet sump oiling system and has starter provisions already machined into the block. The Gt 500 block is vitually identical to the 5.4 truck block, it might be made from a stroger iron material but it is still a bolt in into any vehicle that had a modular v8 engine. You must be thinking of the GT supercar, that block had a dry sump system and no starter.
He may have to use the truck oil pan on the GT 500 block. Other than the pan, the oiling and steering are non-issues.
