    well talked it over with the wife and i am getting a rebuilt motor, I found some used cheaper but you just never know how well they were mantained. So with me getting this motor i get all new parts minus block which is the rebuilt part that has a 3 year/75,000 mile warranty. Talked to my Mech, and he said if i was to swap in the 5.4 i would have to get a new computer for the truck. so to keep this as cheap as i can and still have a warranty going to stay with the 4.6. Should have the truck running in 2-2.5 weeks. will try to get pics of the process and the new motor will be here in 7-10 days

    Well, the new motor showed up today, but unfortunately they sent the wrong one. I am soooo pissed. First they send one for a car for my sisters 150, which apparently the only diff is the timing chain cover, and now the one they sent me is for a 2005 and not a 1999. So they are overnighting one from TN. and its supossed to be here Tuesday.
