Re: 2003 Explorer Engine Swap

The value of a 93 explorer is so low that depreciation isn't a factor to consider in an engine swap, although the expense is.

A properly maintained 4.0 v6 with a few improvements is a very strong motor for towing and also that teenage desire to go fast.

If you have a 4.0 I would consider rebuilding it instead of an engine swap. You can fairly easily improve the HP of a 4.0 with a few modifications and after market parts like headers, performance chips, and cold air intake. You'll also get better MPG with the 4.0.
