5.4 Navigator/Turbo Build into the Lightning

BlackTruck2 · 12-27-2007, 02:30 PM

I am finally making the plunge.
I purchased a 2000 Lincoln Navigator with 45000 miles.
I yanked out the engine and tranny and harness from the navigator.
I yanked out my 5.4 from the lightning.
I have the 5.4 Navigator engine ready to go into the truck.

Anybody who has done this swap.......can you tell me what I might encounter pushing through the factory intake set up.

I have a Spearco Front mount intercooler, 60-lb injectors, Dual Fuel pumps, etc.

Looking for some builder help.

I have bolted on a set of GT500 Shorty Headers and will start mocking up the rest of the equipment.

Looks like it will be a fun build that may be very user friendly since everthing is going together nicely.

Good luck on the build. If you search for posts started by me you'll find some shots of my progress.. a year in the making and still going. Have fun with it!
