V8 swap would it be worth it over all?

[QUOTE="Dreman, post: 816627, member: 61303"] Find a 2001 v8 Explorer or Mountaineer for a parts vehicle. All of the parts you need to make the swap should be there since the body and chassis in the 2001 Explorer is the same as your 2001 Explorer Sport Trac. The ECU from the 2001 Explorer should be a direct swap for the ECU in your 2001 Sport Trac, so no emissions laws are violated. As I understand it, there are a few custom parts needed for the 302 to fit, but the 2001 v8 Explorer should have them already installed. The base 302 is not much stronger than a decent 4.0, but the 302 can be made much, much more than the 4.0. [/QUOTE]
