find a complete efi 460, locate a Big Block C6 tranny (4wd), get proper mounts and exhaust headers. reuse your 5.0 harness and get a efi 460 ecu and be done or go mass air using this http://rjminjectiontech.com/?p=26 and a mustang mass air ecu and get it tuned for the big block and be done.

one juckyard i worked at down in fl usta (made up my own word) say a dollar a cube, so if you can get everything(what about trans) that is a hell of a deal, in my opinion, remember your talking 460 efi,(MONSTER)

I recently put a 88 460/C6 into my 84 Bronco using L&L motor mounts.The C6 bolts up right where the original one did on the tranny crossmember, so you shouldn't need to change driveshaft lengths. You will, however, need to swap yokes on the t-case or driveshafts. The Bronco and pick-up yokes are not the same size and the bolt holes for the u-clamps will not line up.
