new engine May 19, 2009, 02:31:12 AM so, when i built my HO last year, i unknowingly used a bad oil pump. it took until now to start knock, knock, knocking on heaven's door. long story short, i found a 5.0 HO with e7te's and a separate typhoon intake and computer and the guy selling it was willing to help me with the swap (because firestone is half-assed and won't let me do it there) and is even letting me make payments... 950 total! i'd have to say i got a great deal. i threw on the bbk's and we cranked her up...fired right up on the first try. :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D Quote Selected
