first of all you bought a v6 big mistake, second you will probaly have to replace all the drivetrain the torque of the 5.4 will f*** it all up then you will have to replace the frame because the frame of a v6 will bend like a penis running into a brick wall so this is a very bad idea and the 5.4 is a huge beast motor so it wouldnt fit.

im not sure if the v6 and 4.6 share a common K member  if so you can use it then you will need motor trans and a rear end

are you wanting to make a 2000 cobra r clone?? the engine does fit 69fast it was installed in 32v configuration in the 2000

Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser.

----9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion from the court's refusal to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004)

yeah you can do it, its possible I dont think you will actually have to replace all the frame really. Just you will need most likely a new harness, computer, and a decent amount of other things. But thats just too much work should of just bought a v8 2, 3, or a 4v.

If it were a classic going to a V8 from a straight 6 it would take a lot of money and time to do it, but it would possibly be worth it in the end.  However, a V6 going to a V8 in a modern Mustang is pointless.  The car is basically depreciated and will never be worth much anyway.  Just sell the V6 and get yourself a V8 at a fraction of the cost it would take to convert.
