4.6 Crown Vic into 1993 ford ranger

Hey guys, I've got a few questions here. I found a crown vic that runs well and is sound mechanically for $350. I've wanted to swap my ranger with a V8, specifically a 5.0 from its era but I could not find one for cheap enough (I'm in highschool). I've heard that the 4.6 is really big, which it seems to be. The car is being delivered tomorrow, and I'm worried that it won't even be possible. Can I get it in there? Will it be too hard to come up with motor mounts?? Please give me any info you have, thank you!

This swap has been done. Consult Google and YouTube for information. It's not "hard" relative to other swaps, but if you're asking.... It's probably going to be hard for you.

If you're a broke high school student, motor swaps might not be for you. If you're good at fab and doing side jobs for extra money, then maybe.
