Isn't the Lincoln Navigator motor a 5.4 4V? If it is try to find one of them. I would be hard pressed in your situation not to attempt to build a poor mans version of th GT motor with a 4V 5.4 and a Kenne Bell.

Yep or a stroked 302.
Driveability on a carb car is about as good as a efi car if you get a good carb.. Don't let anyone else tell you differently.

The appeal of the 96-02 Cobra motor was the light weight since the earlier cobra's had aluminum blocks. cast iron 351's, 4.6's and 5.4's obviously wouldn't fit into the "light weight" catagory.
What was so expensive about the swap Alan? If people are quoting the cost for the swap as a shop, they are including labor and wiring, which are very expensive.

The deck hight of the 5.4 is 3" wider then the 4.6 Infact I think the 5.4 will hit the strut towers of a fox. Youll have to get a custom upper and lower intake for the 5.4 aswell.

Lincoln heads are alum. They also have more of a mild cam setup than the cobras. Shortblocks are the same. You would have to use a 96-98 cobra intake if using a lincoln motor. Be different Alan. I know you can't beat the bang for buck 302 but how cool would it be to pop the hood of a fox body and see a 32v 4 cammed v8. With a 302 you'd be lost in the masses. No disrespect to the 302 guys ofcourse. -Mark
