Thanks for all the info gentlemen. I plan to proceed with caution only after I find a shop that will make the change. I've had much trepidation so far and will continue with caution.
Once again I'm extremely appreciative of all the foregoing assistance. Especially after hearing concerns of...
1955moose I have both & neither of them wish to touch this animal. My son is the owner, rather his wife, & he just this AM said he didn't want to touch it ever again.
Maybe I should abandon the idea also. In any case I was looking at a local shop to make either repairs or replacement. So far...
I will forgo the swap, just exploring all options.
Thanks for all the info... from everyone.
Will continue exploring an even swap as all else is too much for an octogenarian that's just had his plumbing overhauled.
New question.... Will a newer 5.4L such as the 4 valve model now installed by Ford in todays vehicles drop-in to a 2000 Expedition and not require an ECM change or an additional computer module or am I opening another can of worms?
Maybe it's just bad luck, I can't answer to that as I wasn't the driver. I am considering a remanufactured (1) from Jasper.
Think that would be worth as the rest of the vehicle is in great shape.
Thanks 1955moose. I'm interested so I will maintain touch. The Expedition I have is a cast-off from my son, who is very disgusted with the Triton engine as this is # 4 that has went belly-up.
I looking to resurrect his through-away.
