Trying to decide to rebuild a block that will have to be cleaned up, including cooling passages. Anyone done this, is doable to clean up cooling passages that are have dried antifreeze and rust in them? What is the best way, take it to a reputable engine builder and let him boil it out...
Ok, guys who have done this swap, what radiator did you put in? Will be primarily a street car so 3 rows and what fits up and lends itself to the Terminator engine? I assume you installed electric fans also. Thanks in advance

Ok, putting an 03 Terminator motor into a Fox body. What radiator did you guys use that has plenty of coils to support town and highway driving. I am assuming you definitely put in fans. thanks
Ok, need some help guys. On the cast iron 03-04 blocks, what is the maximum clean up of the bores? ON the aluminum blocks, can you clean the bores up and if so what is the maximum? If you had a choice which block would you buy if you had to buy a new block for a Terminator motor? What heads are...

Ok, the past two times I have driven my 00 R, I have seen maybe a cup of anti freeze dripping off of the top of the fuel cell. I looked under the car to see if it was blowing back from the front of the car, and I do not see anything. Likewise there is nothing dripping under the motor or radiator...
I took it to have the window tinted, ran fine and the owner of the tint company pulled it out into the sun. I went to pick it up, it has always fired on the first turn of the key. Motor turns, can smell gas out of the exhaust. Any tips on what could be the problem?
thanks
Ben
Hey fellow R owners, I need a new lower radiator hose and might as well replace all of them while I do this job. But I am unable to find the hoses at my local Ford dealership nor get the part numbers. The numbers are almost non-readable on my hoses. Anyone got the Ford part numbers, or can lead...
