    E4OD crank spacers and reenforcement plates

    I got it from Brian he said it was one of 2 he had and doesn't have plans to make any. He said the spacers he had were OEM he bought all he could find when he heard they weren't making them anymore. It was his idea to get them copied.

    E4OD crank spacers and reenforcement plates

    I found an OEM crank spacer and reenforcement washer for the later E4OD stamped flexplate. I was thinking about having a local machinist make some. 1 as a backup for me and maybe a couple for anyone who wants one. Just wanted to throw this out there and see if there is any interest. Not sure on...

    2006 expedition build

    It been a while since I posted. Mostly because paint prep sucks. I got the engine stripped to a long block. The cylinders look amazing. No scoring you can still see the cross hatch pattern. Internally the engine looks like it might have a couple thousand miles on it. I'm using the por15 kit so...

    2006 expedition build

    That's pretty cool that someone got a 6.9 to pass 2003 emissions but with the option to register it in Florida. For now I'm just going to stick with that. Today I put the soda blaster to work and got the engine cleaned most of the way. Check out the before and after.

    Sorry for the long write up. But that is about 6 hours of research and talking to officials.

    2006 expedition build

    I called and talked to the state police (they control inspections in Virginia) and the DMV to get more information. As far as the title goes the truck will be registered as the year of the body most likely. You can try to register as the year the motor was built but the lady I talked to says...

    2006 expedition build

    I did a little research this morning on registering the expedition. I don't know about other states but Virginia allows you to register a highly modified vehicle as a reconstructed vehicle. Reconstructed Vehicle Any vehicle that has been materially altered from its original construction by the...

    2006 expedition build

    I don't trust the vacuum pump to work the booster that's on the truck now. So the hydro has to go in. The only affordable controller I found was the quick 4 by BE. I called and talked to a tech it won't be plug and play but seems like it will get me close and I can play with the shift points...

    2006 expedition build

    My goals for this build are to run down the highway at 70MPH @2000RPM or less. Rear end is 3.31 so i feel this is reasonable with the E4OD. Get better gas milage than the 12 MPG it gets now. Make the wife happy. Lets start with the engine. I t came out of a 94 f350. 2 owners ago the frame was...
