Welcome fordkev, nice to have another Ford man on board.
After checking out the info forums do an intro in your local chapter.

Welcome!

Hmmm. That is a good question. Post that one in the tech forums where the experts and see what they say. Click on the Forums tab at the upper left and scroll down through the list. There is a board for engine swaps and that might be the ticket you need. While you're looking around be sure and stop by your regional chapter: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/forum158/

Good luck with that engine swap!
