RE: Remanufactured vs Rebuilt engine--opinions anyone?

Get a crank and rods from a 390 and have it custom built by a competent Ford machine shop. Perferably by a shop who knows FEs first hand. They will know all the little mods and tricks a FE needs for long life. The extra time and expense spent on details will pay big dividens in the long run. You won't need the trick stuff like forged pistons [unless you are planning on racing] but time spent on cylinder wall/ring prep. [torque plate] correct ring gaps and correct bearing clearances and the engine will give you many years and miles of trouble free life.
This thread, so far...
