I'm still waiting for parts...
Heads are still at Fox Lake getting their full treatment
Waiting on MPR to finish prepping new block for assembly.

I am freshening the bottom end, new rings, bearings, gaskets. I bought a bare Teksid block from Racebronco, it's currently at MPR Racing engines. I got a note today from Tim@MPR saying he will have it back to me by the end of the month.

I asked MPR to bore the new block to the same overbore to match current pistons 3.5587. I am going to transfer over the rotating parts from my current teksid to the new teksid block. The current motor runs good makes power but oil consumption through the JLT PCV filters (don't work at 23psi) hurt the motor and it had a ton of blow-by and the cylinder walls are glazed pretty good. Leakdown test had cylinders all over the map. It's amazing it made the power it did with such bad ring seal

Also added the following:

- Accufab - Secondary Timing chains - chain pins are .030 thicker, inner plate that is .020 thicker, and a .010 thicker outer plate.

- L & M Engines BILLET SECONDARY TIMING GEAR SET (9 WAY ADJUSTABLE)

- COMP Cams Adjustable Primary Cam Gears 10254

- Cobra Engineering secondary chain tensioner (this prevents changes in cam timing on passenger side head, might be worth a few hp as well.)

- Cobra Engineering head cooling mod



With the increased lift and duration of the bigger cams, there is more pressure on all of the components.

Debating upgrading the chain guides. I found a hairline crack on the primary chain tensioner guide for the driver side chain. The crack is less than 2 inches long, doesn't LOOK like a big deal. But I will at least be replacing it with a new OEM Chain guide. I can't take any chances with how hard I am going to be pushing this motor. Does anyone besides MMR make chain guides for the 4.6?

I'm envious of those heads. Rest of the upgrade lost is nice too. Should be able to handle whatever you throw at it. Looking forward to results
