Alright well I found a piston in a ford parts warehouse in my province and it�s a good thing. I called bill and he said he didn't have one in stock and it was back ordered for a month! I also have new rod bearings, rings, and gaskets for my top end. What I have to decide now is if I want to bother replacing the Main Crankshaft bearings. I didn't realize that the bottom bolt were TTY and this little surprise repair has stretched my budget enough as it is. Is it worth the money? The engine has less than 20K (according to LKQ when I purchased it) and It will never see another track day that is for sure. I've scrapped the nitrous idea (kit already half installed
but I might be tempted to autox every once in a while.
Believe me I love my contour and I can live with a money pit, but it is turning into a money vortex. Just keep that in mind.
