To the OP, really cool and exciting project. I want to Coyote swap my notch as well, but I'm spending all my money on my actual Coyote.
Sound deadening the whole car will help quite a bit, especially in an old tin can like a foxbody Mustang. I have 200 pounds of sound deadener in my notch, (seriously) and it makes a huge difference in how the car sounds and feels inside. I used Damplifier Pro and Luxury Liner Pro. I am now full of regret that I didn't do it on the firewall when I pulled the dash, so I would absolutely encourage you to do so. Also, look for fit/finish type stuff like the window run channels, door latch strikers, door hinge pins, etc. Replacing all that stuff really changes the way the fox feels and make it look/sounds/feel more new again.
My notch build thread is full of pics on all the various stuff I did to make the car feel more modern, while staying true to an 80s Mustang. You could dig through it and steal ideas.
