1st post. Howdy folks. Please forgive my ignorance. This place is awesome and informative.

Would a 98 Mounty motor work with a 97 Ford Eddie Bauer?
V8 5.0 L? My EX gave out, worst knocking ever. Mechanic said a cylinder was down and no telling what else. Asked if I wanted him to look further, I said no. Would get expensive in a hurry.
Which engines would be interchangeable, years, etc. Thanks in advance for the advice folks.
Take care.

Vehicles are the same mechanically. If the EB is a 5.0, a Mounty 5.0 should work just fine. Good luck.
