Default 01 Mustang GT40 engine

I have an 01 Mustang, its a slow v6, but I was wondering how hard would it be to put the GT40 engine in it. Also would it be worth it? Around how much would it cost, and what would I have to do? thanks for your help

i am really serious. I have a family member that works at Ford and I was talking to him about it and said he doesnt know about how hard it would be, but he said if I was serious about it then he could get the engine for a decent cost. i just wanna get some other opinions about it.

yeah, it probably sat under water for 4 or 5 weeks, 5K and you'll be lucky if it cranks
