From what I understand is that in 07 ford redesigned there 5.4 because of the issues with the cam phasers don't get me wrong it's the same engine with cam phasers but better I blew my 05 5.4 engine with 73k on it I had it rebuilt for around $2500 I did everything but the machine work myself to save money I hope this helps good luck
