Need advice on the biggest bang for the buck regarding a lower end rebuild for my '03 L

I don't care about having internal performance parts that tote a big name, quality comes first, biggest bang for the dollar comes in at a close second.

The only options at this point that I am aware of are - Johnny's complete lower end and Sal's lower end kit.

Please advise!

 

JDM also builds motors

I have one of their motors and am verry happy with it.

 

Since your in Florida you might try Razor's Edge Motorsports.
Both Paul and Tim are good guy's and very helpfull.

What are their complete lower end's going for?

 

Just returned from being out all morning, thanks for the advice guys.

Don't quote me to the penny, but I believe in the $3800 range, complete lower, new block and everything.

 

Dan you ABSOLUTELY get the award for
THE MOST MODS WHEN BRAND NEW
SOB ordered the KB, Pulley's, Chip, and now a Built Motor
all either BEFORE or within a week of taken posession of your BRAND NEW BEAST

I KNEW I LIKED YOU FOR A REASON

My mans first run is gonna be in the 10's

You know I'm a Johnny Guy,
but REM is awesome and I bought much from them,
if they're closer and can do the install, it would be something
to check into.
"OR"
You could drive to PA (JLP) to break in the new Motor
Then drive back to break in the NEW NEW MOTOR
HEHEHEHEHEHE

You know this is all your fault. Your L is so awesome you inspired me beyond the point of reason.

The question is where does it stop? I am already contemplating putting my HiPo 289 aside for the Stang to do the lower end and I haven't even seen a track yet.

I need to plant one of those trees in the backyard, the kind that grows 100's - know where I can get one.

I must say - having a group of great L owners to talk to is priceless!

Thanks again for your advice!!!

 

I told you you'd dig this place
But I don't know if priceless is the word
OR BROKE

 

If you're going to do the assembly yourself, get one of the Piston/Rod/Bearing/Bolt kits, like that from PSP.

You can't beat $1850.00.

 

If you go with a local engine builder, make sure they are very familiar with Ford modulars.

 

agreed - and from my initial experience that knowledge is challenging to find!

 

Your more like the "one wofl"


BTW_ for you youngens, that is from Laverne and Shirly.

 

I just went through Vinnie's list of Mods. I know people that can't count that high.

You are the king!

 

Since your in FL check with this guy:

http://www.racerelated.com

If you cruise over to ******.com you should be able to find some info about a couple of guys he has build motors for.

 

OK; thanks F150 online. There is a Lightning/SVT site in Florida do a search and you should be able to find it.
