@@streetslayers410 I would never get the book that you offered in your video get the Ford manual that is way thicker and it has way more information than those knockoff manuals will ever have
@@streetslayers410 I also have a cobra crank with a 2009 crown Victoria iron block and there's no need to clearance anyting I truly don't know where that information is coming from
@crownvictorialifestyle4421 in 2009 the blocks were cast different. If you put a Cobra crank in an iron block cast previous of 03 you have to clearance the block. That isn't uncommon information.
Deburing the block will reduces points whereas it's likely to cracks throughout the block. I've done this a few times and it takes about an hour, cleaning the block takes even longer and if you think it's clean double check. I've found specs of metal after I thought it was clean.
I just found your channel and I'm stoked! Got a sky blue '96 bird and I'm planning on (eventually) pulling the motor to do the head swap and other stuff.. Great tip about purchasing a manual I'll do that. Keep it up, looking forward to the rest of the build!
I like what ur doin! I think people say 6 bolt main cause some blocks have 6 bolts holding each main journal. My 2003 aluminum wap block is like this. It has 4 bolts in each main and 2 cross bolts. So 6 bolts in each main crank journal
Yes! The aluminum blocks are 6 bolt mains and the cast iron blocks are 4 bolt mains. Just to clarify, some people claim that the 03-04 cobra cast iron blocks are 6 bolt mains. Sorry for the confusion. I appreciate you checking in 🤙
@@canadianmarauder1923 I rebuilt an 07 gt500 and it had dowel pins where the outside of the main caps. So basically it had the 2 cross bolts, 2 dowel pins, 2 bolts next to the crank.
good video my brother ,,i got 2004 maruader 112,000 miles on it..eventually im gonna have do my engine it has that rattle sound only when u frist start it up for about few seconds then it goes away..maybe timming chain tensioner latting the chain slap to the oil fill them or hydraullio cylinder in the tensionerare alittle worn
Thanks for your videos! I'm working on a non pi 4.6 now. Gen 2 cyote rods, New pistons, New rings gapped for boost, PI heads, Think a gt45 and 10-14 psi should be ok?
Geart Video!!! Thanks for sharing. I have a 2001 4.6 2 valve, that has a broken Rod. Should I have it rebuilt or get a remanufactured one ? I sure appreciate your thoughts...
I SEE YOU ARE FAMILAR with these engines i will send you a couple of pics on the build tips not that i am smarter just blessed with a fine mentor and a new one after thirty years i am building a 2v now could ck
I just found your channel and I’m so glad I did. I have a 07 4.6 3v that spun a bearing and ate the journal on the crank up. Motors super young only has 50k on it and the internals look good other than that so I don’t want to have to replace everything and your literally the only person I’ve been able to find that shows how you save what’s not broken!

Great video and information. Question how much a difference in the Gt crank 4.6 2v and Cobra crank 4.6 4v. Can a Gt 4.6 2v crank hold 500 hp as a daily driver 🤔
Aye man I have a question so I just finished rebuilding my 4.6 mustang and besides one lil problem it all went very well and I was hoping you have the time to help me figure out this problem and that is when the vehicle gets to operating temperature it stalls out at idle, so I replaced the IAC VALVE but once I put the new IAC VALVE in now it just stalls out once I start it. I know the vehicle is timed correctly so I don't think that's the issue maybe you might be able to send me in the correct direction
It's not enough weight to matter bro,they deburr on anything so there is less potential for stress cracks.all the little burrs are from the casting it was made in and removed.so grinding them smooth eliminates tiny cracks in the burrs,leading to a far stronger piece .with better structural integrity ! So it is always worth your time...
That's the last year of the 2v for the expedition. You can tell by the intake and valve cover shape pretty easily. 2v valve covers are rectangular looking and 3v covers have rounded shapes along the bottom
Love the Two-valve content! Wew! Looking forward to watching this come together!

Great video brother! People laugh about using the old chiltons or Hanes manuals but they are worth there weight in gold👍
I agree! Thanks for checking in brother
Agreed !!
Brother you be dropping that Knowledge Bomb . cool video !!

Great channel definitely a help for all the 2v out there
Thanks man

I remember back before the internet everyone had a Chilton book or needed to borrow one,
Unfortunately you can't believe everything on the internet
i dont miss those days honestly
Glad I found this im about to start my first rebuild ever i have a 99 single cab with a 4.2 and swap out with a 4.6

Very similar. These 4.6 engines are very simple

If it goes away after a few seconds, most likely it is the lash adjusters. They are pretty easy to change.

Thanks for checking my channel out. That sucks about the bearing. Are you planning to get a new crank? or get that one machined?
What kit did you use for the piston, rods and rings? Plan on doing a budget rebuild and need new rings
Sealed power for the piston rings. Everything else is just cheap ebay stuff
Great video and information. Question how much a difference in the Gt crank 4.6 2v and Cobra crank 4.6 4v. Can a Gt 4.6 2v crank hold 500 hp as a daily driver 🤔
A stock gt crank will handle anything you can throw at it except for really high rpms.

Hey bub if you flip the head around won't the intake ports be backwards?
Nope
