What engines can be swapped for a V6 in a 2001 Ford Mustang with little or no modification?

I have a 2001 For mustang V6. I know you can stick almost any engine in it with the right kind of modifications. I was wondering what engines I could swap that would require the least work and money. I was hoping to put a V8 in it. I want to go upwards of 300 horsepower. Any answers would be appreciated.

    I’m not a ford guy, this is just from what i’ve heard, but the easiest would be the 4.6 v8. The 2 valve single cam version swap should be easy with a donor motor and wiring. don’t forget the ECU. You could go with a 4 valve dual cam v8 from the cobra or earlier mark VIII, but this motor would probably need drivetrain modifications due to the increase in power over stock v6 components. These are both ford motors and should swap in with the least amount of modifications to existing chassis components.
