Got the 4.6 tore down. As I assumed. Broken oil pump. Everything is toast. Both heads, cams, crank, four rods and four of the eight holes would have to be taken out .060" to get all the scratches out. What a waste of a bunch of money on good rods, and pistons. Not to mention a Teksid aluminum block. Steel block and 50lb. weight reduction is in the 55's future. I almost wanted to cry looking at those almost new rods all burned to hell!

JJ, check your email.

Jerry. Do you have a canton oil pan? Make sure that is on your list too
Thanks to all that have offered help. I don't know what to do. David Donovan has offered help, David Love has an option, I have the iron block that bent the valves at Hallett two years ago that the block may be fine on so I don't know what I am going to do.
I do have the Canton pan.
