Default Help Engine?

Hi everyone,

I have a 00 F150 4.6 lariat 4x4 and Im lookin to swap it to a 5.4 engine but its out off a 2000 Expedition will it fit? and it has 2 bad pistons and rods. I know I have to rebuild it, but what else would I need to complete and make it a successful swap that passes CA smog, and can I use parts off of my 4.6 engine?


Thanks.

it would be hard press to do a swap like tht in cali, with the strict emissions. personally just stick with the 4.6, it wont be worth the headache doing the swap and then u cant get it through emissions, unless u pay someone off.

PCM will be different. You will need PCM from 5.4l.
