daoud,

You can install the 5.4L with the 4r100 transmission in place of the 4.6L with the 4r70w transmission. But you need to have the computer and wiring harness from the 5.4L. Then it will be much more simple.

Should be a simple swap, espesially if you have the PCM and Wiring harness for the 5.4 and 4R100.

Dear qcksnacke I would like some input from you I am planning on doing the swap on my expedition while my kids are home for xmass . Do you realy think I won't have any Problem with the installation . I do have the wire harnes for the 5.4 and also for the r/w 100 transmission I hope we don't get any snow because I am doing this out side . I would also like your help on where to hook a chain to pull the motor I realy don't want to take of the intakemanafold if I don't have to . Thanks for your in put

I pulled and installed my new motor with the intake manifold off. There are several large bolt holes that are available in the valley/head area that I used 4 of. I have a few photos posted in my build thread. Other than having to drain the coolant it is pretty simple to remove and install intake.

I had to remove all my accessories and radiator to get the clearance to move the motor forward in order to lift it. Half of it sits under the firewall !! I also had to remove my front bumper assembly in order to give the engine lift room enough to reach it since it sits so far back.
