Getting the engine out was a pain in the butt. Did you go out the traditional way - out the top - or did you follow the service manuals instructions. We pulled it out the top and it took us about a day. It took another day to tear down both engines (I am replacing all of the bearings in the 3L), my brother (engineer - thank god, because before this project started I was a mechanical rookie) has been doing all of the head work and should be done by Sunday. I am putting the lower block together this weekend as he welds and grinds and Monday is the magic day when the engine goes back in the car. Wednesday I have an apointment at a local shop (they specialize in Fords) with a dynojet and the ability to reflash my computer. I also have taken a picture of every step (wait you loosened a bolt - I need to get the camera) and plan on putting them up on a website one day.
Have fun putting it all back together - buying all of those torque to yeild bolts has driven me crazy (who knew that bolts could add up that quickly).
