It'll fit and it'll fit nicely. Just have to move everything back a little. The 6.8 is not that much longer than the 5.4. Same width, just a inch or so longer.

HI!... The 6.8 and 5.4 are identical except the 6.8 is longer. Basically a 5.4 with 2 more cylinders. It will fit with a pair of electric fans and some rad relocation. The 6.8 is not a engine that likes to be modded though. The crank is offset creating a major weak point. I was going to do a V-10 swap in my F-150 years ago but after seeing the crank I ran away from it.
