Will an engine from a 2010 f250 5.4 work in my 2005 f150 5.4?

 

It will not be a direct swap. The heads were redesigned in 08. Different connectors on the coils for sure. Possibly different CHT sensor connector or location.

 

Is the long block the same? If I change all electrical parts, oil pan and intake will it work? What is the difference in the heads?

 

Main difference is they take a one piece spark plug. The Ford racing heads are supposedly the new design and can be put on the older engines. So I would assume fixing the electrical connections, using the new style coils and reusing original valve covers would be all that is needed. Please note that I said ASSUME, so I don't know for sure. Hopefully someone who has swapped one will chime in with some firsthand knowledge and I'll search around to see if I can link you any good info on this thread.

 

Thanks cb13 for your help.

 

I know on the older trucks that there was enough differences that the super duty 5.4 would not fit the F150.

 

I have a 2005 f150 with a blown 5.4 3v, some one is offering to sell me a 2010 5.4 3v. I'm curious to know if this swap worked for you.

 

Didn't buy it. Couldn't get a sure answer on compatibility.
