    Engine/trans dropped, results and repairs

    My fault on the extreme delay. I got super sick last week and didn’t do anything for 4 days but last weekend I cranked out the rest of the car. She runs incredible! I’m waiting on the front turbo feed line quick connect that has the seal because mine leaked at WOT on the test drive. I also...

    Engine/trans dropped, results and repairs

    Rings/pistons look great, cylinder walls still showing nice hash marks. Ford put a decent effort into piston reliefs but they weren’t big enough for the intake valves lol thankfully it was a very light hit. Back in the DSM days I had some motors that looked like you took an air hammer to the...

    Crank no start ‍♂️
