08 to 02 4.7l

[adamh3844]

I was wondering what parts from the 08 4.7l are can be swapped into an 02 4.7l engine.
I know the Intake Manifold is simple and direct bolt but would need the throttle body adapter.
Is there anything else i can strip from newer truck engine to replace on old for performance?

It's been a while, but do a google search, there's been a couple cases when people have swapped the newer Corsair 4.7 for the older model. Something about changing out a tone ring...

Heads with their respective cams will bolt on and work well on the older block. What you will need to figure out is how to fire the other coil (08+ has twin plug).

I don't recall another coil on my 09 4.7. There was the coil on plug, and a wire from that coil running to the bottom plug.

That may very well be, I know they're twin plug but I wasn't sure if it was two coils or old hemi style coil with a wire.
