Lol yes. He said he'll clean it up and get back with me some time next week. Getting balanced, bored, honed, and decked most likely.

FYI guys if you want your motor to last longer than 100k dont use low tension oil rings. I've learned the hard way. I finally found my oil consumption issues. Its no leak down or compression related.

Well I talked to HR and I choose my start date anytime during the summer. I will go back to construction for about a month to pay for the swap completion and moving expenses.
I want to get it all physically put together then haul it up to your place to have help with the vac/sensors. I'll have a starter tune ready. By end of June I want it running. Then a final tune and good to go but middle of July

Ford used to sell new ones for $7

I'd like to wish all you guys a Merry Christmas. Hell, maybe a few of you will even have a charger or a new set of injectors under the tree.
