Thanks in advance for any help!!

Anything is possible, but at the very least, the computer controls will be your biggest and costliest problem. The PCM and harness out of the 2007 will probably have to be used.

Loren Champlain Sr Veteran / Moderator Dec 21, 2008, 10:41 AM Post #4 of 7 (3188 views) Re: Ford 4.6 motor swap Sign In Those Interceptor engines run GREAT. I'm pretty sure you'll be happy with the performance if you can get all of the bugs worked out.

The 07 has a completely different set up than the 99. So what you might want to do is have both engines sitting on the floor side by side and look closely to see what will work. The block and heads will be the same. Just the periphials will need to be changed. Being way2old is why I need help from younger minds Guest Anonymous Poster Dec 21, 2008, 11:08 AM Post #7 of 7 (3181 views) Re: Ford 4.6 motor swap Sign In i know the intake manifold will have to be changed it looks like also...gonna be a little bit of a project but i think it will be well worth it...got a rebuilt trans going in also and then a rear end and a suspension work done...thanks again   Automotive Repair     Auto Body Repair and Refinishing     Heating or AC Issues     Electrical and Wiring     Brake Systems     Car Stereo Repair Advice     General Discussions     Car Making Funny Noises     Engine Fault Codes     Engine Troubles     Exhaust Systems     Steering and Suspension     Transmission Troubles     Tricks of the Trade Automotive World     General Discussions     Antique Car Talk     Car Shows and Events     The Bargin Bin     Motor Vehicle Inspection     Car Care Tips     Traffic Tickets     Gasoline, Motor Oils, Concept Cars and Engines     Auto Insurance, Financing, Leases, Warranties Truck Repair     General Discussions     Truck Engine Repair     Truck Suspension Repair Motorcycle Repair     General Discussions     Motorcycle Engine Repair CarJunky     Open Posting     Board FAQ's     New Board Suggestions
