Is it possible to swap 4v dohc heads onto a 2v sohc motor? What would all be required...tune, heads, cams, valves, etc? Just a thought, I really think Ford should've put the 4v motor in the Bullitt

it's easier to get a 99+ 4v and swap the whole motor.

yeah you'll need to many parts. heads, cams ,cam covers, timing cover, intake, throttle body and induction system. the list is longer than that but thats the bigger items.

In theory it seems easy, just buy the parts off a salvaged 4v, be it cobra or mach, and swap em... Damn, I thought this would work.

Too many parts needed in order to make it work the right way and correctly
Throttle Body
Intake to match the heads
Heads and cams w/ secondary chains, cover, etc
New pistons as the CR is different
New crank as the 4V is Forged and revs to 6800 regularly
Flywheel to match the 8 bolt cranks
Alternator
Injectors
Harness
A tune
