The 9000 series bulbs is just a numbering/naming standard for modular plug (non-sealed beam) headlights.

I am wondering if a transmission that came off a Ford 4.9L will Bolt up to a 5.8L?

The number is a generic code the bulb manufacturer gives each type of bulb they make. One bulb style may fit several makes/models of vehicles. As long as you match up the correct number with the manufacturers light code, any bulb brightness will work, such as Bright white, Hyper white, etc.

9007 is the type of headlight bulb. Different types of vehicles use different types of bulbs in their headlights, side markers, turn signals, brake lights, tail lights, and stop lights (don't forget the high-mount 3rd stop light). 9007 is yours (according to what the store told you) for your headlights.

Dose any one know where to find a ford truck myspace layout?

Different brands offer different options. You might see a 9007LL Long Life, a 9007ST Silver Star, a 9007CB Cool Blue, etc. These are bulbs which all fit the 9007 standard, but have a different color temperature, different lifespan, different efficiency in converting electricity to light.

Can I swap a manual tranny with my 700R in my Caprice without major conversions?

If you want to replace the whole headlight assembly (get some projector headlights, for example), that is a whole other story. You need to look for something else, if that is the case.

I now own a 2000 Z3. I am anxiously waiting for the new BMW Z2 due in 2010. I love the miata which one!?

Whatever you do, don't touch the bulbs by the glass end. Your fingerprints can shorten the life of the halogen (headlight) bulbs. Hold them only by the base. If you accidentally touch the glass, wipe the glass down with denatured alcohol (or regular, clear, rubbing alcohol) before installing them. I have read that halogen bulbs can explode if they are turned on with any dirt or fingerprints on them. I know that they explode if your headlight assembly has a leak and they get wet in the rain or carwash.
