Plus, with all the torque the Powerstroke has, the 5 speed is super easy to drive, even for a beginner.
If you do decide to swap, There is a company that makes a standalone computer to control an E4OD. I found it in a search here one time when I was thinking about this swap myself and It ran about $400.

Found the Link. It looks like its $400 for the computer and $150 for the harness. BTW, Imight pick up that 5 speed from you if the price is right. I'd have a good drive from middle GA.
