Mechanically do-able - don't know about the electronics

I know it's been done, as I wheeled with a guy in KY that put a 5.0 in his wrangler.

Very doable
I wheeled with guys running LT1's in a TJ and a YJ
also a YJ with a 4.6 from a newer stang so I dont see the 5.0 being a problem

Now for a while my brother had a crazy idea for a bronco II and a 5.0
find one 4X4 with a blown 4.0 V6 and a 5 speed and the 5.0 is direct bolt in
he had a wrecked GT street racer 350+ HP with NOS
now that in a bronco II with 35's look out
sure the front diff would be toast but boy it would rock

Ya... I remember this one in KY... BUT.... also remember that he was the one that split his driveshaft in two right at the first obstacle....
So, , yes doable, but lot more things probably are needed
I'll try to find a link to his page - If I remember right, he has been keeping a log of everything he did on his.
