You can convert them but you'll need to change the cam trigger wheels on the
camshafts. It may be less expensive to just change the cams and intake
configuration than the entire engine.

Yeah,you're talking over my head again Bernd. You had

Are you saying it's possible to convert an old 4.7 to
the new type? I don't understand. I was meaning
swapping the whole motor.

Please enlighten...

Thanks!
