Need help

I have a 2008 ford f-150 with the 5.4 3 valve the timing chain broke and was wondering if I could swap the 5.4 with a 4.6 and if I would have to change anything else I have a buddy that has the engine and computer just not sure if it will even work

It's not a simple swap-in-a-4.6-and-it'll-work kind of thing.

The folks that know about this sort of thing don't often visit the "New Member Introductions" forum. You might want to post over in the "2004 - 2008 F150" forum to get some more answers going.

Welcome aboard!
