Always best to grind the crank. Let's see to rebuild generally.


Mill Heads and have new oil seals installed and valve job. About 250 from a machine shop

Grind crank 80 dollars

New main bearings - not from ford $80
New Rings Hastings $80
New Rod bearings $55

Hone block - $55

Reuse pistons if block does not have to be bored. Clean carbon from pistons, etc. very well.

Of course purchase gaskets - not from Ford.

New oil pump - $70

New timing components not from Ford. For all about $270 guides, chains, tensioners, etc.

New Rod bolts $20
New Main bolts $35

I prefer to rebuild and have a new engine instead of a used 3.0 or 2.5L.
