Yea man,

She’s in perfect shape View attachment 1766008

Looks like a upgraded throttle body, and CAI from what I can see.

Looks like you have some mods on there, did it come with a tuner?

Yea

I have to make sure she’s in good shape so I can always have her whenever she’s needed.

Please take those quarter window scoops off. Otherwise it’s a beautiful car. Nice to see someone used and enjoyed the hell out of that thing.

Will that cause any harm to her?

The answer to your question is to maintain it. Duh.

60 seconds? That just might be an SVTP record.

[Tezz500]

Looks and runs great, does anyone have any suggestions as to what to do to make sure she lasts another 140,000?

I bet that PTWA coating is not long for giving up.

Good luck with her.

Is this playing?

Your cylinder walls are a Plasma Transfer Wire Arc iron coating and it’s only 150 microns (0.006-inch) thick… it’s been ran for over 140,000 miles…

I’m no ford engineer but… that’s a lot of miles on a block you can’t just rehone, bore out .030 over and call it a day.

These blocks are EXPENSIVE to replace.

Idk what your plans are for the car but I would consider sleeving the block before you go HAM on any performance modifications and or run it like a raped ape…

To give you SOME peace of mind…

“Besides the GT500 blocks, it's used in gas turbines and Caterpillar remanufacturers its diesel cylinders with it, so it's tough stuff.”
