The 4.6L is too wide for a stock engine bay for the first gen Mustangs. Even the '71-'73 Mustang engine bay would need major work to fit, and it was designed for a 385 series big block.
At the least, you'll need to install a Mustang II front suspension to get rid of the shock towers.
FYI, it'd be easier to modify your '69 to fit a 385-series, and will provide A LOT more power. An FE big block would fit no problem. A stroked 351W would give you the easiest bang for the buck.
