I had something worthwhile to throw this into and the $$$ to buy it.

It even has the "elephant ear" engine-lifting brackets.

^^^ obviously only if I hit the lottery for $40 million.
Lot of money for that motor. But man, the 5.4 aluminum block.......:drool:
That's why I'm doing a 4.6 DOHC first, GT blocks are a million dollars never mind after machining for wet sump, and although I think I could build a nice 5.4 if I sold my motor, the things are boat anchors! They weigh what, 160# empty IIRC? I'm trying to lighten up the front a little, not weigh it down.
And then there's dry sump. I know some people are doing it but that just goes way beyond the scope of the build at this time.
Sorry guys, just BSing here, just a discussion..lol
Just thinking ahead to my next build.

Looks like it will nail the stearing shaft going into the rack unit.
