1998 Ford Expedition 4X4 Project - $2000 (VB 23452)I have the original 5.4 DOHC that I had to pay a hefty core charge on and I would sell it, I was going to pull the heads and replace the valves, chains and guides. It only broke the intake chain on side 1. I think it only has 2 bent valves at...

I have a 428 CJ block and set of 8 Federal Mogul forged pistons that I'm selling. The block is a C6ME with the letter "A" in the rear of the block. The block has been Magnaflux and Sonic tested and is .060 over 428 standard size and come with a set of Forged pistons with rings that was run in...

That just makes me want to puke.

It's been a long time since starting this thread but here's the end result. The engine that was im the Navigator did have a broken intake cam chain and as I knew that it is an interference engine I started searching for another engine. I bought a used engine from LKQ and got it in. It was a lot...

Did you ever do your ball joints?

It might be the original engine of that truck.

I'd post a couple if I could figure out how to do so.

Thanks guys, for the attempts to help me diagnose the engine problem with my Navigator. It turned out that the driver side intake cam chain was broken. We did a compression test and found very low compression in cyl.s #5 and 7 so we stopped everything and removed the cam cover and found the...

I just hope you never get a job with the Post Office. At least in my area.:guns:

I wasn't that lucky/busy. I was building a couple of box stands to hold a couple of spare Mod Motors. I really butchered up some good wood.

Just another thought; Aren't the 351 and 302 distributors the same overall length and cam gears? If they are you could use the cam sensor from your 5.0 and the coil pacs with your ECM as well as using your MAF and other accessories. I am primarily a FE fanatic but I've done a little with the...

Heads up guys and girls. The Pick and Pull yard in Virginia Beach has a Turbo T-Bird that was wrecked with the drive train intact. They open at 8 AM and this is a car that no one can take parts off of til Saturday. Sorry for the late post on this, I was going to post this earlier but got busy.

Years ago I used pipe thread brass fittings and hard copper 3/8" tubing to eliminate the rubber hoses on my GT500 KR and it worked great. I intend to do a conversion on the replacement engine for my Navigator before installation and I'll take pics and post the procedure. I think a standard size...

Some of you guys just have too much time on your hands.Harvesting's done and it's too early to plant.

Buy an inexpensive mechanic's stethesope and start checking the various parts of the engine near where you think the sound is coming from. If the sound is loudest in the oil pan you have problems coming. My '98 expy had a rattle that I traced to the rear of the oil pan. I dropped the pan and...

Double check the carb's float level.

Sorry for arriving late to this discussion, but my thoughts are; Have you looked into the later 351 powered vans? They are electronic controlled and of course F.I., I've seen a few at the bone yard I go to but never really looked at them.

Besides the ECM you need to be certain to have a complete engine harness and the exhaust pipes from the engine that you intend to use as I don't think they are interchangeable. Then you need to be concerned about the air intake system. Radiator and hose locations and that's about it. I'm sure...

:headbang: I have a 2000 Navigator 5.4 DOHC AWD that has been giving me a serious headache. I bought this truck to save it from it’s previous owner and the bone yard. The previous owner was driving the truck to the store, about 5 miles from his home, and it started running poorly, then badly...

The only H-M engines that had any H-M markings were those that were modified for customers or were race engines for any type of motorsports. The markings were often "H-M----- the 5 or 6 digits were the RO number that specified the specifications the engine was built to. These numbers were often...

Just a heads up tthose who might be interested...Pick-N-Pull in Virginia beach, Va,. has a 351c 4V engine in an older F 150 pick up truck. It appears to be all factory including the Holley carb that came on many of the 4 V engines and all of the 351 Cobra Jets. I believe the price is about...

427 marine enginesBack in the day I worked at Holman & Moody Racing in Miami Fl.. At that time most of the boat manufacturers were using Ford or Chrysler engines. The 427's sold by Ford were 300 hp with dished pistons, 330 hp with flat top pistons that had little "norbs" on top to bump the...

Thanks for the help, I did find some info on the Mark VIII board where a couple of people got lucky with only 1 key. I tried it and had no success. The local Pop-a-Lock quoted $140 for 2 keys and programming but Beach Ford charges $25 per key and $50 for programming. I'm going to go to the...

Does anyone know the procedure to program new PATS keys? The Explorer I bought has only 1 key and I can buy new cut keys from Ford for $25.00 each. The owners manual does tell you how to program a new spare key, but it also says that you MUST have 2 pre-programmed keys in order to program a...

Engine building and PokerGlad to see that it's running good at last. When you set your timing you should have the distributor hold down just loose enough to be able to force the distributor to move. Then check your total timing at 2,000 rpm, I suggest that you try 38' to start and if you still...
