new engines

I know this prolly isn't the right place for this thread but, does anyone know if the new truck engines have spark plug problems as all 5.4's did? Also I hate the look of the new 150's but would like the newer power plant. I figured after my engine shot craps Id swap in the new 6 speed and a 5.0 or 3.5. Would that be possible im not sure the 5.4 will pull out through the hood with it sitting so far back.

You would be looking at some serious money on a swap... The electrical and engine management systems alone would be a giant mountain to climb. But nothings impossible with the right amount of money I guess.. Why swap? The f150 is due for a redesign in a few years why not just wait and see if you like what they come out with next?

Ya, I rather not have another truck payment or have to put another lift on, but from what I've seen the new engines in my opinon are way better than the 5.4

The 5.4 is a great engine. I absolutely loved mine as did my Dad but the only reason I dont have mine anymore is the gas mileage.
