Interesting thread, will be a good read, sounds to me something went wrong with the timing for that head. Hopefully its something down in the electrical system. Good luck.

Sounds like your cam sync. is bad(controls timming). its A $60 part. there is a big "plug" on top of your valve cover, pull it out. Look inside, you need a "torx" bit . Remove the 1 torx bit screw and pull out the syncroniser and replace. Important--- you must rev the engine steadly above 2200rpm for 2 min. to reset the computer. Any Questions call me @ 909-261-1506

Death to ford!!!
