I have a 98 3.8 v6 with a blown engine and a complete 01 engine minus wiring harness. What i need to know is if i can put the 01 engine into the 98 and if so what kind of things specifically will be problematic. Just from looking at it for a minute it appears the fuel rails are different and the 01 only has one fuel line whereas the 98 has 2 fuel lines that run to the rail. Any advise or if anyone has done this swap info would be greatly appreciated!
So from what ive figured out it seems a 96-98 windstar fuel rail will fit an 01 motor and has the return system also. Anyone know if this is correct or have any experience with that?
