I have the vehicle listed above and looking to swap the engine. It has the 5.4L V8 that was used for both Ford trucks and Lincoln. I'm interested in finding out any and all options for an engine swap that would not require significant modifications.

As far as swapping a 3v engine from a F-150, the swap should be pretty seamless as far as the long block goes. There may be differences like vacuum ports and coolant hoses, but if you have a donor vehicle sitting next to the Navigator that would be the ideal situation. Now if you are doing a coyote swap, that's a whole other ball game! That will absolutely require a donor vehicle due to wire harness and fuse box differences along with mounts etc.
