Help with 4.6 question

I have a 03 that needs and engine and there is a local add for a F150 2007 4.6 90K for 800. Is it the same? Did they have the two piece spark plugs then? Does 800 sound good? Thanks

$800 for an '07 F150 with 90K sounds pretty cheap. You have to figure out why it's that cheap, if it's because the body is dented up and rusting, or because the engine isn't working right. I would suggest taking a code reader with you and seeing if it has any codes after a short drive (some people will clear the codes to make the vehicle seem better), besides checking how engine oil and transmission fluid look/smell .

I don't know if it's the same design motor for an easy transplant.

The add is only for the motor. I was just stating it was from a 150

Nobody knows???? I though there was a different reluctor wheel or something under the timing cover that made it more than just a swap???

Thanks

OK different question. Anyone ever do just a refresh? Assuming I find only minimal damage. What usually locks them up? LOL
