Can a blown LR4 5.0 V8 be replaced with a LR3 V8 4.4?

You have an LR4 also?

Its possible I suppose, but it would be a lot of work. I dont think its just a simple engine and ECU swap, there would likely be a few sub-systems that would have be changed as well.

physically sure not a problem. Getting it to play nice with the electronics would be the interesting part as noted.
