Cool engine overhaule

need to know the procedurs and part list for overhauling my 1984 ford f-150 w/4.9 300 I6 I know how to take things apart and put them back to gether but overhauling anything is new to me. this is my first truck and it is ****ing me off with the amount of problems it has. the neglected truck i bought off my mother for a doller because it still had hope the body was desent till an engin problem caused an accedent a 5 doller part that was replaces a week before the accedent failed so i'm getting ready to start replacing any thing that is rusted under that hood

JP Weld is a product that you can use to fix the crack. You mix it up and then stick it on, it turns to a metal like materal. Then you just drill and tap it and put the thing back together. You can get it at autozone or a like store.
