Replacement engine

I am installing a Ford rebuilt engine in my 97 F-150 for the warranty. Otherwise I would have intalled a Rhino engine. I am just about finished with my installation and it has gone well. If something goes wrong with a Ford engine and I have followed their instructions they are suppose to do the repair work not me. That was a big factor in my decision. Time will tell.
Good luck,
Chris

Your probably rightabout the 75,000 miles. I purchased this engine a couple of months ago. I'm to the point now of priming the oil pump so hopefully it will be making all the right noises in short order.
