    I respect your efforts and perseverance in trying to get your 4.6 repaired and running properly!

    Personally, I gave up on spending any time and money on 4.6 Modulars a lonnnnng time ago.
    I once loved the 4.6 DOHC Modular, but realistically they are a fragile engine lacking at least 100 HP and 100 LB-FT of torque compared to any modern 5.0 Coyote.
    If I still owned my Marauder, I would devote all my resources to procuring a Mustang or F150 Coyote 5.0 and the extra effort to making it run in a Marauder chassis.

    The 5.0 Coyote is what Ford SHOULD have put into the Marauder.....if only it was available 10 years earlier.

    agreed, this will just get me up and running again... whatevers next remains up in the air... either rebuild and stroke the original, or work towards a 3rd gen coyote.
