JP...have you called the builder?

Yes I have.

I am thinking of dropping it off there and giving him a chance to redeem himself.

I guess what you told "Robert" was privileged information?? Sorry if I let the cat out JP.

I just hope the damage is limited to the valve-train.

Not likely, you now have little pieces roaming around.

Rebuild or replace.

Dropped the '96 off at the shop and on the way back home.

 

[driller]

FYI... Home at last.

I'll post the final pics tomorrow.

All any one needs to know is it is stock ford castings on the block and head... what spins in it is not important ... And that whistling sound is power steering pump.

 

[BadSax]

Glad you made it home

 

[mlschultz]

LOL, I wonder if the Boss 5.0 Modular block will give me away with the '93.

NAW!!! Gees, I started reading your thread on this atrocity last Wednesday, left for upstate NY on Thursday and I too, just got home...... about 4:30PM.

Damn JP, you sure are tough on cars!! Sorry..... the devil made me do it!

But it sure is fun!

I'd rather deal with whatever happens driving them than just looking at them in the garage.

But trying to deal with two modified Mark VIIIs is a challenge at times.
