It's really not that bad. You're just doing a 4v swap and a 5.4 swap so there's all the stuff you had to deal with for the 4v swap and then the intake and exhaust stuff from the 5.4 swap. It's really not that bad.
You'll want to call up Maximum Motorsports and ask about the K-member spacers (they should be ready soon if not already), get a tubular k-member, a 4v motor and a proper intake. Intake choices are actually pretty varied. I like some of kar-krafts offerings but Al Papito is the man for short runner jobs. Navigator intakes are ok but better for trucks than cars.
If you want a 4v don't be afraid of it... it's worth it and not actually that hard. I think many of us just got spoiled on the simplicity of the 2v swap.
