Was disassembling my 460 shortblock for my 1995 F250, and had a bad day. Dropped one stubborn piston on the floor cracking the skirt and also found 1 with scuffs.

Guess i will be calling ford monday to see how tough of a day it was!

 

If you are boring the block then who cares. throw in the trash and replace with 8 new.

 

was not planning on replacing the pistons as the bores are excellent, just a general cleaning and regasket for this one.

Would be easier if it needed bored,
