Good Info, TY msvela448

Installing my heads using the Ford Performance M-6067-3V46 head gasket and bolt kit (Not Studs). Do the bolts go in dry, or use anything like thread locker, anti-siege, etc. Please advise,

whitmanink, thanks for the tips.

msvela448, thanks for the feedback. Should I remove the steering linkage?

I'm ready to reinstall my rebuilt 4.6 3V and auto trans. Currently the tranny is out and the heads are not on the block. What's the easiest way to reinstall with shorty headers? I've seen 4 methods: 1. the complete Eng/Tranny assembly being installed together with the shorty headers. 2.The...

Thank you:clap:

My machine shop lost the 2 small oil pick-up tube bolts for my 08 3V. Anyone know the size?

Most modern engines, for the last 30 years have been designed to run at around 190-200 to provide the best efficiency in regards to the emission systems and exhaust output.

Thank you all for the good advice.

I need advice for an 8 hole SFI flexplate for my 08 stroked 3V with a 5R55S automatic trans. None are listed since the 3v all had 6 hole stock cranks. Going with a Hughes stall converter. Will any of the 8 hole internal balanced flexplates for earlier, or later year mod motors work? Please advise...

rschmid, not sure what stroker components you are using, or if this even applies anymore to a stroked mod motor, But I do know from building stroker small blocks years ago, some brands of piston and rod combo's had the rod pin cut through the oil ring groove, which caused the 347's to burn oil...

Thank you DDB for the detailed info. I appreciate your knowledge and your other informational posts on these matters. Any suggestions on cams? I have the common bolt-on's, tuner, 4.6 stroker, NA, 10.6CR, stock heads with ported exhaust, Comp Beehive .550 springs, Steeda charge motion delete...

Thanks 2526Bullitt, the FR m-6600-f46 was my first choice, but they've been discontinued from Ford, so I went with the Melling version of it. I'm also using the FR timing set.

Need advice......Ready to assemble a fresh NA 4.6 3v aluminum block stroker with forged internals. Going with the Melling 10341 HP oil pump that is 20% higher volume, and gives you a choice of running the installed 80lb pressure spring like the 5.4's, or replacing with the included 60lb spring...

Thank you all for the tips. I feel better moving forward.

Nice build, thanks for sharing the Dyno test. Gives me something to shoot for.

Appreciate the info, TY

Getting ready to order my 5.0 stroker kit for an Aluminum 3V 4.6. I'd like to increase the CR slightly over the factory 9.8. Has anyone run a N/A 10+ up to 11CR and did it effect octane, Knock, or reliability in anyway? Currently run most bolt-on N/A mods with a tune. Please advise.
