Originally posted by svttour: Its turning out easier than i thought Of course, you've only done about 3% of the work needed. Pulling upper and lower intakes is a piece of cake, something that almost anybody can do. The hard stuff lies ahead. Good luck, you'll need it. John P.S. Yes, I still think you're crazy for doing this yourself considering your knowledge base, and that you're in over your head, but I'm sure you're tired of hearing that.

ummm I think JVT was referring more along the lines of disassembling the heads, grinding down the crank, filling in the extra oil ports, etc....
Still a long way to go, but any start is a good start!

Just got to tell you since it sounds like your first time... lable and number everything as you take it off. A lot of pictures can help you reassemble it too. The cams will be the trickiest part for you to get timed being a newbie, so pay special attension during that disassembly. Long way to go yet man... you do have the Ford CD ROM, yes?

Go Sam!......I wanna see that thing running soon! Dre is gonna be soooooooo jealous!!!!! Don't worry about him though, he wants to sell his engine to his brother, but Marcel will never buy it, he wants his rebuilt. Don't know if you heard, but he messed up his dad's tour too, fuel pump.......hehe.
I also wanted to add that it's usually easier to work on a motor when it's not in the car...so take advantage while it's not under the hood!
