5.4l master rebuild kit
I'm getting close to starting this project possibly, slowly gathering parts. bout ready to purchase a rebuild kit. I did a quick google search and found a kit w/o timing guides or tensioners for $880.30. Any of you 5.4 guys find any better deals or recommend a kit. I'm not looking to piece this kit together, i would rather just buy everything in 1 package so i dont risk forgeting things.

Dude that's awesome! I bet you're stoked. You gotta start a post here for it. I'm plannin on doin the same thing
|
What kind of a kit are you looking at? just a new gasket,rings,bearings etc.. or all of that plus rods and pistons? and what are you looking for if you are looking for rods and pistons, more ci, more compression for nitrous or n/a or less for boost? lots of things you need to know before hand.
|
I'm gonna use the same rotating assembly, i just want, rings, gaskets, bearings(main, rod, and cam) timing chains, maybe new valve guides, etc...
|
Got ya, I will see what I can find.

^thanks spike, i gotta start saving up, ive never done a build where i had to price everything out, at school they buy the parts and just tell us dont break em lol. i didnt expect a rebuild kit to be that much

Let me know how much you want for your heads and intakes for your 6 when you get your 5.4 project under way
|
I'd check www.rockauto.com and get a gasket set. Are the bore and crank in good shape? good to know before you buy the bearings and rings. and mod motors don't use cam bearings. Probably come out cheaper than $880
|
The cranks fine and there is no serious gouges in the walls and i got some good, equal compression test readings, but that was a long time ago and i cant remember what i got. What do you mean there are no cam bearings? something has to holding the cam in place while it spins
|
Yeah, just the caps. There's no bearing inserts like in the crank and rods, the cam rides directly on the Aluminum.
|
Im pretty sure whatever you need, I can beat anyones prices;)
