Get the short block form and f150 and do the swap.

Why are you doing the 4.2L and leaving everything else stock (curious)

I dont understand why it has to go to the shop.I was told that it is the same motor pretty much just bigger bore and deeper stroke.

I just wanted to change out the crank but every post i have found across the internet doesnt day anythign besides "they are the same motor" If that were so why couldnt i bring over the crank and just get the deeper stroke.
