Blown Motor from Backfire

brucespot · 09-22-2006, 03:15 PM

Well we started the motor and a rod went through the block as soon as it fired so a new motor is inline.... This has been an expensive backfire.
Will a 5.4 2v long block bolt in and interchange with this motor, like intake manafold,computer ,exaust ect..?

So if I get a 5.4 then the water pump,injectors and everything else will interchange,so what we are saying is everything from my 4.6 will interchange the only difference is the displacement?
