read the v6 section

your going to need at minimum...

an 8.8 rear end, new springs to compensate the heavier motor, new radiator cuz the v6 cant support even a 4.6l gt engine, new fuel pump + injectors, new bellhousing for the tranny at a minimum that i know of for a 4.6 swap so a 5.4 you may need a whole new tranny depending on how much hp its pushing, wiring harness and ecu, probably a few more odds and ends.
