I remember seeing 350X crate engines online somewhere....I forgot the web site though. They were $1,000 and there were pictures of the crates and engines stacked in a warehouse (or so it looked like).

Well you got the Manufature correct! (sorry no prize 4 U) It's the Triton 4.6 engine.



Whats Wrong with this picture...I should NOT be replacing an engine with only 81k on it!

Come to think of it!~, They only people that should be replacing my engine is FORD! and have it covered under warranty!

Our 1991 Ford Aerostar with the 4.0 V6 (powerful sum biotch) has over 160,000 miles in it and the only thing that needed replacement was the thermostat and the starter (after being started, driven for 3 miles, and shut down.....10-15 times a day......9 years worth (its the truth))

And I wont even get started on our 1975 International Travelall ;)
