I could have used that engine a few years ago when I bought a stock salvage engine to replace the one I toasted in my '96 Cobra. I still have the orginal engine that needs rebuilt and put back into the car some day. Where in the central high plains and front range regions does one find a good shop/person qualified to rebuild a 4.6L DOHC engine?

Shop wisely for the 347. A drag racer buddy of mine just shelled his after about a 1000 miles.

Why the change?

Let me know when you find a good machine shop that knows the 4.6.

Likewise!

True, but if that motor can't last under a few 12 second passes and a round trip to the track it certainly won't last a weekend of what we put our motors through.

Thanks Jeff. Richard and I can have a good talk. Time to rebuild the broken motor and get the loaner back to it's owner.

I would recommend The Engine Shop LTD., 1254 Sherman Dr., (303) 772-0920.
He is excellent with all types engines from bone stock to monster HP engines.

Not to knock him in any way, but does he know his way around a Ford mod motor?

Dave B.,
Don't forget to ask about 4.6L DOHCs too. You'll have to fill me in on what you find out when you're down in Hallett. I never go to Texas...so sending an engine there would be less than convenient. I was hoping to find someone in Colorado or Kansas.

[bpanther]

Scott,

I can build your motor. I just need to find a machine shop to work with.

I had all my favorites in CA... lost here.

The reading I've been doing says it's a slam dunk to do a 390hp/365tq 4 valve motor.

You ready to go AI or you want it for the street car?

[jeffburch]

Richard is accustomed to shipping.
He has rebuilt just about every motor out of a Pantera in the world.
He always has a different one in there when I stop by.
He's hip to everything Ford.

Very reasonbly priced to anyone NASA.
I've lost count of the motors he's done just in Texas.

We're going to fully hijack this thread now.

The motor I need rebuilt will be a bone stock rebuild to put the original engine back into the still completely stock Cobra. By stock, I mean stock appearing and sounding. I'm not opposed to upgrading a few areas of weakness inside the engine. Once it is back in, I will have a "spare" '96 DOHC 4.6 to do with what I please, sell, or swap.

A naturally aspirated 4.6L DOHC in a street driven foxbody with '03-'04 IRS and T56 at the power levels you mentioned above would be super cool.

I can't remember the fellows name in the Midwest NASA Region right now, but he is a friend of the Bortons. Anyway, he had a '96 Mystic Cobra like mine that had a seriously nasty sounding naturally aspirated 4.6 DOHC engine that I think was around the 400HP levels you mentioned. Long tube headers with an off road X-pipe and Borla exhaust is a sweet sounding setup with lumpy cams and also when the DOHC is running at full song.

That reminds me, I have a sound file of that engine somewhere I need to find.
