[QUOTE="coyoteugly5.0, post: 14157080, member: 154759"] Tonight I pulled 2 more plugs, and they did have minimal oil on them, so I did have my hopes up. I went to the parts store and rented a compression gauge, got home, and checked the 4 cylinders on the driver side. It was 108ish all the way down to cylinder 8 which came in around 15. So definitely cylinder 8 failure. That would be awesome as well.. Do you sell the head bolts, gaskets, and fluids? If your giving me a free rod and piston Id definitely hit you up, that helps play into the cheaper part for me. As long as its torqued back together correctly, will it still be as reliable and able to hold a little nitrous? maybe 75-100 shot? Then again, I'm thinking put it together and sell it on the other hand.. I noticed a few out there but they all come with the crankshaft? I thought I read that the factory 5.0 crank was forged and was more than capable, Can I just simply buy the rods and pistons? Or does that make it where I have to take the block to get balanced?
