Motor stock 5.0 HO from a '92 with 71k on it. The motor is BONE STOCK there is nothing done to it at all. The car still has the stock exhaust and cats on it (i swear its the only 5.0 left with the factory cats lol). Motor runs VERY strong no issues. the rear intake seals do not leak from what i can tell. doesnt leak any other fluids. I have most of the accessory brackets as well and some other random parts
Transmission
again, stock Ford AOD. I was told when i bought the car that it was recently rebuilt, and after taking it out of the car you can indeed tell that it was rebuilt recently. so we’ll go with what the previous owner told me and say it has 5k on it. overdrive still works perfectly, shifts really smooth and no problems.
the reason im buying a new motor us because my friend parted out his Lincoln Mark VII and it had a very nicely built 5.0 with 90% of the same mods i was going to do anyway. his rebuild has low miles on it, and for the price he gave it to me, i just could not pass it up. the same holds true for the transmission i bought and the rear end I picked up. i just got killer deals on all of this stuff so to me it just made more sense to drop all of this stuff right in and sell the old stuff.
Im not trying to make money here, just recover a little bit of the cost of what I paid for the new stuff.
and the 3 month life of the truck has expired, so you know what that means (no im not kidding)
Ok, i really need to get this stuff sold. everything is still in the car, so you can see it run and whatnot, but it wont be in the car for long. i REALLY need to sell this stuff, so im open to REASONABLE offers now.
asking the wifey if she wants the motor thats a pretty good deal. she may or may not be interested but for that price thats pretty low miles shes tippin close to 145,000 or somethin soon. might be nice to build this over winter. ill let you know by like 5
