Default 5.0 F150 is back in action
After putting a rod out the side of the block with a 150 shot on the street I got it back together on sat.I got a used shortblock with 3 bad pistons give to me and took 3 of my pistons and made one good motor.new rings and bearings with my topend and shes good as new.
Now for the good news 12.69@107 1.78 60' with some good DA and i was very happy.
