The engine/transmission harness is completely different and you would need to swap it over with the donor engine. You will also need the donor's PCM and a compatible transmission.

The big differences are in the PATS, ABS, speedometer and charging system wiring. You will need to move several wires. Best bet is to get a Ford factory Wiring Diagram manual for each vehicle and start comparing. I get mine from "Lorie and Jeff" on eBay.
