2 questions for a friend
hey folks,
I have a couple of questions from a buddy of mine, and I havent been able to find a decent answer for him, so... Anyway, he has a 98 e250 w/ the 5.2l, w/ac. He was wondering if there were any companies out there that make "performance" parts for his model van. Specifically, he's interested in a k&n filter and a "super duty" set of slave cyl. for the rear brakes. (He has a heavy duty suspension from the factory, but says that the cyls start to leak a few days after replacement). The second question is how hard would it be to swap a 5.2 into another body type. (he hasnt selected a project car yet, but general info would be greatly appreciated) Would it just be like swapping a 4.6? Thanks for any info, J

Im guessing you mean a 5.4 since Ford never made a 5.2 to my knowledge. The 5.4 is BIG, a 4.6 is 4 inches wider than a 460. I dont think it would be a problem swapping it into something. Obviously he will want to pick something with huge engine bay.
