Will a 5.8 bolt to the 5.4 trans?

I know this is stupid but I have a line on a used van with a sick 5.4 and I have a decent 5.8 EFI laying around. Will the 5.8 bolt to thje 5.4's trans?

I didn't think so but a quick quiz of the FTE'ers and I should know for sure.

THANKS!!!

Thanks for the info... I was gonna bet on "no" but here is the place to find out.

I bought a 2wd F250 on eBay w a salvage title and the lady at the sec of state said it would be no prob to get a new title - turns out i would've had to change two major components, with reciepts, have it inspected, blah blah blah.
But... it had a rust-free body that I put on a F350 7.3 XLT that took a high body hit. Good for me and all but... what to do w this pefectly good high mileage 5.8 EFI? I took out the wiring harness and the whole deal b4 the frame left for the scrap yard. Thought I could find something to drop this mill into.

Thanks again... I'll keep lookin
