Okay, I bought a 99 SVT motor from a friend for $200 with a blown ring. It needs to be bored .20 over due to piston>cyl gap (there's a small amount of play) and a new passenger side head. No S/C included though. First off, is this a good deal? Second,I'm building a Baja truck out of my '96 F150 4x4 and want to know if the motor will fit. I have an E4OD tranny and OBD-II computer (I know I will probably have to install a 99 Lightning computer to make it run right). Has anyone done this or can someone please help me in preparing for this swap? All help is appreciated. Thanks

Can't say I can help, but that'll be a pretty cool ride if it works. Good Luck.

 

The lighting engine is a 5.4 modular. Your tranny will not bolt up, and the engine will not even fit in your truck without EXTENSIVE work.
