Default 2009 xf engine in 2006 XJR

Does anyone know if a supercharged engine from a 2009 XF will drop into a 2006 XJR? I am having a hell of a time finding an engine for my 06 XJR but there is an abundance of 2009 xf engines locally.

Basically the PCM. If the PCM from the XF can connect (directly) into your existing harness on the 06 XJR, then you may be in luck.

I have all of that from the XJR. Have you done this swap before?
