Don't know the dimensions, but the engine and transmission should fit in an Expedition. You might have to break them apart, but they should fit. The biggest thing on the motor is protecting the oil pan. Make sure it isn't dented AT ALL before you buy the motor, and make sure to keep it from getting dented on the way home. Many have toasted their motor due to a small dent which prevents the oil pickup from working.

Good luck and make sure to compression test any motor you seriously consider...

I'm pretty sure it's going to fit, the expedition has a lot of cargo space in the back. If you need fold down the rear seats, remove the 3rd row of seats if equipped.
