I have a 4.6l 4v engine, I am looking to replace it with a 351w - would I be able to use the headers on the 4.6l for the 351w?


I have long tube headers on it ATM

Thanks, I see I can buy 351W ones from FFR.

Thanks for all the information, the transmission is 3650.

I am still deciding on what I want to do, the 4.6 spun a bearing so have to pull it anyway.

How hard is it to remove the body on am MK3?

Remove:
Doors
Hood
Trunk lid
Sidepipes
Bumpers
Roll bars
Windshield
Splash panels
Radiator aluminum
Disconnect light wiring and wipers if applicable
Remove 4 bolts in the nose
Remove 4 bolts down each side
Raise the rear, go forward, raise the front and take it away!

I can go from complete car to body off in about 2-3 hours—-but I’ve done it a hundred times. All that said it is possible to R&R engine with the body on.

Thanks Jeff.

My plan atm is to rebuild the 4.6 bottom end and go from there

Thank you everyone for all the info
