DOHC 5.4 into a '97-up F150

Greetings. I needed information and specs on putting a DOHC Lincoln Navigator ('99-up) engine into an F150. I know it seems like a pretty straight forward bolt in swap since the chassis are the same (aren't they?), but what I really need to know about is the electronic end of it.
Will I need a new PCM, wiring harness, that sort of thing.
I thank everyone in advance.

I'm also planning on putting a Navigator 5.4L DOHC engine into my 1997 F150. You mentioned that the computer and harness would be required, but would I have to make changes to the transmission?

I was under the impression that I would also have to get a transmission from a 2WD Navigator. Would the 4R70W transmission that came with my truck work alright with the Navigator engine?

Thanks in advance.
