I'd ask on the warranty of the motor? How long and who fixes it. I'd call all the dealers around and see if you can locate one. That's me, I know you don't want to camp there for two weeks before he even starts. Isn't fords 36K unlimited miles?
I'm leaving in the morning so I wish you good luck. I don't have a way to get internet on the road. I still use a flip phone. I need to learn.

Ford is 2 yr 24K and Jasper is 1 yr unlimited miles. The dealers supposedly work together on supply. The thing about smart phones is that you learn as you go and then looking back you admit to yourself that wasn't so bad.
Did he figure out what's wrong with it or are you just gonna throw a block at it and see what he finds when he's taking your stuff off? Probably cheaper in the long run to replace it, but still would be good to know
haha, thanks Todd but I'm at least a 1000 miles from you. You need that motor for the Mare, you'll get it done eventually!
I just got a call from the shop. I went over there this morning and told him that I would prefer a Ford reman instead of a Jasper. When I talked to him he said a Ford was two weeks before he can get one and the Jasper he can get by Monday and start working on it Monday. I told him to get a Jasper.
I was being serious Glenn. Time to round up the gang. It wouldn’t be nearly as bad this go round.

Right, and when I have my ARP's removed I'll ask him to pull the head to see what happened.

I'm not pushing that much HP so I don't think that will matter. IDK for sure though!

I know your being serious Todd but I don't have any idea of how I could get it back to you? As much as I think about that last thrashing I would love to but on the other hand we should spread the good will around and do someone else.

I am running around for Brian this weekend...but I was scheduled to be off to work on my focus next weekend...20-22nd...have truck, will travel, and will pull (no 5th wheel or gooseneck)...
Where in Nebraska? Omaha...got it...
My tow charges are cheap for friends and brothers...food and fuel....
You have a big heart Lee like others on here but the engine has been ordered and the shop is starting on it Monday. I wish I could find a Ford reman but they are two + weeks out. I even called Swamps who list them on their website and they don't have any in stock. Thanks!

Ben, I feel better now after a call to Jasper. The 7.3 I'm ordering has the FORGED RODS! Also from your posts about knowing what happened I'm in the same boat. I'm going to have them find out even if its a little more money. Thanks for your posts.
