Yes and no.
Yes it will fit
no it wont work, you have a v8 and electronics and exhaust etc all totally different and not worth the hassle. Plus you would end up with a night mare. Now a ls chevy engine swap has kits out there or just get another 4.0

Good point.
Still not viable to put an engine from an X-Type in.
