There isn't a whole lot to changing the intake manifold on a 4.7 is there? No lifter galley to seal up and the manifold is all o-ring'd right?
Just checking if there is anything to look out for cause I have an '02 HO intake coming in ~tuesday. $172 from my dealer.

Yeah, if you can get the oil dip stick tube out of the way, do it. Otherwise it'll constantly be in the way. Since you're going from an '02 std to an '02 HO the swap should be painless but, I'd count the number of vacuum ports on both manifolds just to make sure. Also, make sure the PCV hose going into the back of the manifold will reach. I had to buy the '04 PCV tube when I swapped in the '04 manifold on my '00 because the PCV hose connection was a different size angle and placement.
It's no fun having to run to the store looking for these minor items just so you can get this project completed.

It won't take you to long to do that job especially since yours is an 02 like mine. A couple of tips for you: Leave the TB on the manifold, you can take it off once the manifold is out, same with the MAP sensor; You'll probably have to loosen the fuel rail so the MAP sensor will clear going in and coming out, I had to do that on mine.
Rob C is correct about the vacuum line, but you won't have a problem with different sizes, just make sure you hook it up to the new manifold before lowering it into position. That will make it a lot easier.
Hope this helps ya...
