yes sir it is.




also forgot, add "timing chain tensioner and timing set" to the list of repaired parts. in 90k miles, the factory tensioner disintegrated and the chain was being held taught by the piece of metal it used to ride on.

Obviously I'm biased. But I can't help but respect you a little more because of this statement. FoMoCo is better than a "Great Mistake" any day.
