When you figure in the cost of rebuilding the motor, it probably isn't worth it. It's basically as much work as an H22 swap for less power. If you got a nice running F for free, and you're good with swaps, then maybe. Otherwise, I'd let it go.

f and h series engines are very similar, and both involve major cutting of the frame to shoehorn in. not worth it in my opinion, i would rather get an h22 if i was going through all the trouble to hack up the frame

look at redzcstandardhatch's build thread "I want a build thread too" to see just how much work an F series is to put into an ED hatch.
