You can use a long snout water pump also. Actually the long snout water pump from the Lincoln Navigator (Navi pump) is an upgrade. You will need the water pump pully from a Lincoln Navigator or 1997 crown victoria for it to work.

You can do this job with the motor in the car. It’s actually pretty easy just time consuming. I’ve done a few of them in my day lol. I will say it is nice having the motor out to be able to do an oil pan gasket and rear main seal right away tho.

It depends if you have the Romeo or Windsor heads. If you have the pi Romeo heads then any 11 bolt valve cover will work. If you have Windsor heads then any 13 bolt valve cover will work

Do you have any clue if the non pi pistons are a different bore size? I’m doing the swap right now and the pistons and bore of my block are a different size but they are still ford pistons it’s very odd
@T-MillProductions
Жыл бұрын
All the 4.6l engines ever made to the best of my knowledge are the same bore from the factory, however if the engine that you have was a reman engine from ford it might be bored .020 over. I had a 2000 mustang GT and it had a Windsor engine in it, when I got it it had a cracked cylinder wall and when I pulled the motor there was a metal plate on the side that said ford remanufactured 9/04. Doing some investigation some ford engines got rebuilt vs replaced so it’s possible that one of yours was a remanufactured unit

@T-MillProductions

You should do a tune to be on the safe side. And you must run 91 or 93 octane gasoline as well. It bumps the compression up a pretty good amount and you wanna make sure your engine is safe

We’ll let me start out by saying thanks for checking out the channel! What exactly are your power goals? And do you care if you need to run 87 or 93 octane? The best way to ad power in my opinion Is going to be forced induction unless you want to stay naturally aspirated. Then I would say pi swap your car with some stage 2 or custom cams and some sort of header and mid pipe combination with a good tune, that would require 93 octane if you pi swap as it raises your compression from 9.6 to 10.5 to 1. If you just want to gain about 30 horsepower I would say just some bolt ons and a tune. But if you wanna gain 50 or more you’re gonna have to go into the motor

Hey so i have a question, i swapped a 02 engine into my 99 crown vic and im having weird issue's. Upon taking the old engine apart i see the front crank sensor tone ring in alot different..... should i put the original for the car back in or is it fine?
@T-MillProductions
7 ай бұрын
The tone rings should be the same. What is different about them? If anything I would just use the ones in the 02 engine with that crank sensor. And does you car have knock sensors? I noticed that when I bought a 99 crown Vic non pi engine it came with 2 knock sensors under the intake manifold and the 2000’s era engines I’ve gotten didn’t have them at all. Just something you might wanna check before you swap it in.
@johnjohn-xo5gl

@T-MillProductions so on the 99 the tone ring is alot thicker not sure if that changes the signal or not. And I don't think this newer engine has a knock sensor on it either.

Question i got a 97 block and 00 heads and ive heard to go with comp stage. 4s or any aftermarket cams you have to mess with clearance issues
@T-MillProductions
Жыл бұрын
So that’s not true. I have 2011 heads on a 2000 block, but the crown Vic I got my bottom end and block from was a non pi motor so your 97 block is the same, the pistons have a smaller dish in them then the pi block pistons do, you can run the 00 heads on the 97 and you can do after market cams, what you have to watch out for is the piston to valve clearance issue, to big of cams with make the valve hit the crown of the pistons. I have stage 4 comps in my motor and it’s basically the same as yours without any issues. If I could do it again I would contact Todd Warren cams and have a set of custom cams made. My buddy just did that because you can pick exactly what you want

For the most part yes, are you trying to pi swap your engine? If so then you’d need the heads, pi intake, pi coolant cross over, possibly injectors depending on what then flow rate is on your stock ones and a tune.
