Are the engines in a 2001 Taurus and a 2001 Windstar interchangeable?

Hello,

That year Taurus has 3 different engines. One is the duel overhead cam and other two ore overhead valve engines.
The Windstar uses a overhead valve engine with a different VIN code.
Unfortunately those engines are not interchangeable as they have different VIN code. Which means they will have different programming for the computers and different torque mapping.

Let me know of any questions you might have.
Thank you.
