not really if you swap it you might as well put something better than a sohc motor you will need a motor, k member, motor mounts, computer, wiring, bell housing and other misc parts

Maybe a PI 4.6L engine would be maybe....and emphasize the maybe. Do a rebuild and, cram forged internals if you have the money. . A nice DOHC, or ??5.4L?!! Navi. With a blower.! That'd be nice! And not too common. Be different. But being different comes at a price (if its too unique then problems, and gremlins would be a tad harder to track down) go with a teksid.

Definitely not worth it for a SOHC, way too much work for so little gain.
