HAHA I hope so.

You must be pretty damn quick at getting it in and out!..and no, I'm not being sarcastic!

 

[lil_dq]

Total time on the clock for this tear out was 1 hour and 33 minutes! LOL that was with my pop helping as a tool gopher. I have it down to 24 bolts that have to come out to remove the engine.

 

[nobodyspecial]

Should drop that thing in my Benz once you get it fixed.

11 times you should be able to do it blind folded by now.

 

[Fellro]

If anything from a 4.6 Lincoln motor will help, let me know. It won't be here real long... Motor has about 170,000 miles.

 

[lil_dq]

Nothing on it will. I appreciate the offer though.

I was going to ask if you used the blindfold this time.

No but I did find junk in the oil pickup tube. And the main bearings are scarred but the crank looks real good. I am going to spec them tomorrow and see but will throw some new bearings in after having the machine shop check out the crank.

 

[lil_dq]

Everything that came apart tonight looked good. Pulled the heads and no damage there, Pistons all look real good. Tomorrow lower end and see what the crank looks like...

"slightly" is and understatement

 

[lil_dq]

Mine next????

You puttin a 5.4 or a cummins in there?! That's all I know how to build LOL

[Ton van der Sluijs]

But what about the E4OD? I've read that it's not Ford's best design to transport horsepower.How is your tranny holding under such racing conditions? I'm driving my truck like an "old fart' low revs and under 50mph overdrive off. I love the roar at 1600revs on the highway at 53mph.

I have a custom built 4R70W. I had it beefed last time I blew the trans on a test drive. LOL
