  1. Also, I have found a good 350 etec. Would i be good to go with my ecm, injectors, turbo, and cam keyway. Any other differences from my 427?
  2. Sorry haven't checked in for a while. Also can't get pictures to upload off my phone. I'll send them by email to anyone that is really interested. I would take 5k for it as is.
  3. Well found some good calipers to find my crank is .020 out of round. Back to square one guess I'll see if anyone in the fort worth area wants the truck as is. 2001 etech 427 Fro16210 Hendrickson air ride Merritor .370
  4. Apparently I polished more than I thought. Standard bearing with .003 to .006 plastigauge on top and bottom barely flattened at all. Guess ill put the top back together and wait for a .010 over bearing to try.
  5. Well got a new to me rod finnally. Have quite a few hours polishing the crank. Hopefully tomorrow will throw it in with a new bearing and some plastigauge. Are the rod and main bolts torque to yield one time use?
  6. Well #2 Rod bearing stacked crank trashed. Here we go. Will a 60 series or a n14 fit in a CX? Local shops in $4500 to $5000 exchange for take out mack engines
  7. Yeah just hard to justify dropping 25k in a truck I paid 9k for. If the crank is bad idk what I'll do tbh. I like the truck other than the 10 speed, just re did all the floor in the cab. Would a 60 series fit in there? Not many good pull out Mack motors in my area.
  8. 1.3 on chasis. No history. I've put about 20000 on it. Friend bought it at an auction in Arkansas, decided he didn't want it I bought from him. The heads looked new when he brought it home. Had a oil leak on the right side cylinder #3. Head gasket.
  9. Driver said she started knocking and blowing out the blow by. Went and drug it home, got the heads and own off still haven't found the obvious problem. Had to go get a socket to remove the rod caps so surely will figure the damage tomorrow. No chunks in the own but plenty of different types of shavings. Open to any tips as first time this deep in a dog . Thx
  10. To add to slightly highjack😊 I've got a 01 CX with a 427 etech Feels pretty sluggish so I put a bigger turbo I had off my Detroit. It's a Garrett tmf 55. 1/32 ex. 72 compessor enducer. Thought it would give her a little more breath at top end. Don't think I've got quite enough fuel for it though. If I have an aftermarket guy who can get a 460xt program for about the same money "says he can" as injectors what's the better first option?
