Thinking
Would be interesting to watch. The 4v swaps I've witnessed on line weren't detailed all that well. I guess the only downside might be, well, it can be a pita to keep some of those engines running right. From what I recall, once they begin having problems..... On the other hand, some don't have problems at all. I guess it's how thorough you are covering all the bases... with the engine itself. Or just getting lucky, having a good one to swap in.

If you're referring to the transmission won't fit thread the parts he bought don't go together for a 2003. Where he bought it lists a "refer to" reference for his truck. Apparently that won't prevent putting the trans on though.
4V cobra based...Nav engine? Not a bad swap, there is quite a bit to it. I have the parts list for that swap somewhere.

Well... I assume it's the same basic setup as the Cobra up top. I think it's just a regular Windsor block though. This dude is very thorough. Hopefully he takes a lot of pics. I've seen him build some pretty cool stuff. He blew the motor in it recently, and this is the replacement.
Do yall remember the user that did the 4v swap and said it wasnt worth it. I think his name was myfx4 but I cant remember exactly. I'm pretty sure his issue was that he decided to use the cobra cams and killed his low end torque. Not exactly sure what he was expecting in a heavy truck with 35s though. He built the motor out completely then went with used cams. Really left me scratching my head.
