Pick up a TEKSID block from the local scrap yard for $100.

It's cheap insurance on a build like this.

what would one search for when trying to find this block? what cars did they come in?

I find them in mid 90's Lincoln Mark VIII (RWD).
If you strip it down to just the block, my local junkyard charges $100 for any engine block, including a TEKSID.


The DOHC Modular V-8 has evolved with reliable consistency for more than a decade. Early on, the 4.6L DOHC employed the Teksid F6LZ-6010-AB aluminum block according to George Reid's How To Rebuild 4.6L/5.4L Ford Engines book, which is available from CarTech Books. The DOHC's first aluminum Modular block weighed just 86 pounds compared with the 175-pound SOHC iron block. Teksid of Italy, a world-class aluminum casting operation, provided Ford with DOHC block castings through 2001, when Ford made the decision to bring casting work into its Windsor, Ontario foundry (Windsor Aluminum Plant or "WAP"). Ford introduced a lot of good constructive modifications to the DOHC block including thicker pan rails and increased ribbing for reducing noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH).

Renowned Modular engine builder and racer, Sean Hyland, of Sean Hyland Motorsport tells us he uses the early '96-'98 Cobra Teksid block (F6LZ-6010-AB) for his drag racing engines with great success because they can withstand 1,500 horsepower. This block was also used in the '93-'98 Lincoln Mark VIII, which means there are plenty of cores out there—higher mileage cars can be had for as little as $1,000. Italian-cast Teksid blocks are cast in SAE 319 spec' aluminum and heat-treated to get the desired strength. The Teksid block is consistent and predictable throughout its 1993-2001 production life according to Hyland. The only change was a switch to wider interference fit main caps in 1999 in a revised block casting (ZR3Z-6010-CA) when Ford eliminated the main cap cross bolt jackscrew preload design.
