3.9's are v6 not v8's, 318's are your V8's and if you have the 318 then dont swap for the 4.7 you can beef up the 318's, they are too hard to explode

Casey, this IS the V6 board, he said he wants to replace his 3.9 with a 4.7. Its not that hard to understand, besides he never mentioned a 318.
Keith, first up, I dont think the motor mounts are the same. Also you will have to get the computer and wireing harness with the engine. If you can make motor mounts and possibly a tranny mount. I dont think it would really be that difficult.

Stick with the 5.2/5.9 family. The 4.7 would be more than just a little extra work even if you have a lot of experience.

Also first year for 4.7 in a Dak was '00, so no correct '99 PCM for that combo.

Lead, follow, or get out of the way
