Over 300k on my 4.0 and it has not blown up yet. If I get to keep the vehicle for the next 5 years without the engine blowing I will strongly consider swapping the 4.0 for a 5.0. Which engine lasts longer? Well I would say it depends on how well it is maintained. The 5.0 is a more valued engine so I would say all things considered that the 5.0 lasts longer.
