    Possible 4.6L Engine rebuild?

    I just recently replaced my 4.6l engine with another about 2 months ago. The problem with the old one is just the Tensioner arms/timing chain which caused a knocking sound.

    Engine Swap

    I hydrolocked my engine and it is beyond repair. I was wondering if anyone knew about the problems I might run into if I try to drop a 4.6 in (previously was a 4.0) my 2002 Explorer XLT. Or if it isn't even possible. Thanks Guys! Kevin

    Today While I was trying to put on a MAF from a 4.6L Town Car I discovered that my air intake tube has apperently made contact with some moving part and has pieces broken off on the TB side. So should I just see if I can find one in good condition or is there a better one out there or can I...
