I have done a 5.4 DOHC swap and can answer a few of the questions out there.
The stock bellhousing will bolt up to the mod motor with a few simple modifications.
The motor mounts will have to be custom fabricated as will the headers.
An aftermarket ECM will probably cost more but is a lot easier than trying to use a factory ECM. I am using the Accel Gen 7.
The block and heads will have to be ground away with an angle grinder in a few areas.
The cooling system will be a pain to route.
The 03 cobra engine are more than likely too long to fit in the engine bay.
If you have any other questions let me know.
