how much trouble would it be to change a 4.6L to a 5.4L S/C Lightning motor in a f150 stepside 2wd.... it looks just like a lightning but without the sideskirts and front bumper plus its a 2002..... just for future plans thanks

You would prob have to change the PCM, engine harness, radiator, fuel pump, exhaust, transmission (lightnings use a 4r100, the 4r70w would prob hold up if you keep your foot out of it which defeats the purpose), driveshaft if you change the trans, and plumb a boost gauge. Good luck
