+1, Ford Powered Bastages FTW!
Motor should fit fairly easily I'd think. The only thought or concerns you may want to look into is the rest of the driveline. Tranny fitting into the tunnel (and ground clearance thereafter), driveshaft sizing (can always have a custom one made), and rear end goodies of course.
I say dive in feet first, get some measurements, map out a plan and set a goal for youself... Keep us updated for sure!
