i really do hope you get that all sorted out and get the proper engine or at least a refund for the parts needed to finish the one you have now
Yeah - I'm communicating with them now - it will be interesting to see if they plan on standing behind their sale.
The irony is - and also good news in a way - is that despite having more than 230k on the clock, the engine I took out was running just fine - no issues whatsoever.
But I wanted the supercharger back in for track season and I thought it made more sense to put in the new engine at the same time.
So given all the issues with the new engine, I simply can't use it right now; so the old engine is going back in and will be boosted, and my old tranny with LSD and new clutch will be going in with it, as well as the SVT intake, SVT header and exhaust, and new steering rack that came from the late red track rat.
And I also took the opportunity to put in the new Eibach front sway bar, Moog end links, tie rod ends, and LCAs - to compliment the new FRPP suspension and SVT brake kit I put in last year.
And because we used the time to essentially do two engine swaps, my new Ford Racing rear subframe and new links and new sway bar will have to wait for another day.
