Hey all, as you know, I'm a 5.0 owner. I've been around a few 4.6 cars as my brother owned one at one point as did one of my nephew's. Now one of my younger nephew's has found a low mileage 95 Cougar. 4.6 car, with 67k miles. Prior owner believed he blew the head gaskets. Tore the car apart and never got it back together.
Those are not known for blowing had gaskets, more the intake right? I said if he can buy it for $300, he can get the heads checked and I'll let him have the PI intake off my parts car. Then he's just in it for getting the heads checked, new valve seals and gaskets. If his heads are bad, he can have mine.
Anything we should look for besides obviously the cylinders need to look good and motor needs to turn free.
Thanks, Seth
