Well it depends on what you want to put in there.
An XE/XF 4.1 EFI would be fairly easy to do as you would just need to bolt the engine in and wire the ECU up as well as plumb a return fuel line back to your tank and connect the charcoal cannister. |

If it's a 3 speed auto the swap to manual is as simple as bypassing the starter inhibitor switch and wiring up the reversing lights.
If it's a 4 speeder then you have to trick the ECU into thinking that the transmission is warm by adding resistors |
