5.0 supercharged into an LR4?

Well, bad news. The donor car I got most of the modules from us been scrapped. I’m trying to find another donor car, but most of the ones I come across on eBay simply say, “all we have is what’s posted.”

I’m going to keep looking, but it’s beginning to look like the LR4 suspension will stay just as it is.

Thinking about some time in the future when mine is paid off and it becomes a toy....would this project be a lot easier to do a s/c V8 swap on the '14-'16 yrs that have a s/c V6? more plug and play friendly since its basically the same engine?

Actually, the 13-18 were all 6 cylinder supercharged engines. While the blocks are virtually identical externally, internally there is significantly more internal bracing and cooling within the block. Basically, they’ve created a V6 out of a V8 block. (Hopefully the pic posts and you can see what I mean).
Of note, the NA V8 engines were rated at 375BHP, while the newer SC V6’s are rated at 300HP
