I'm calling B.S. until actual proof is shown. I know several people that buy salvage vehicles and you could get $600 for the truck by scrapping it. Also, if you have the nowhow to do this swap you wouldnt need advice on performance upgrades.

Also, if you swap for a 6.2 why do you care about improved mpg?

Exactly, even salvage a raptor is more than 10x what you claim to have paid. Especially if the engine was good...

Yeah, I don't think so either. I recall the OP asking some pretty simple questions on how to replace carpet and such a few weeks ago. If you're able to swap brand new motors with such ease why ask help on such easy task?

Post pics and explain the swap process, then I will eat my words.
