[QUOTE="19COBRA93, post: 14327832, member: 10462"] The bare 5.4L blocks are still being produced, and can be ordered (I just checked in my Ford system a few minutes ago). They are on back order though, so it will take some time (just like the 5.8's), but they have[B] not[/B] been discontinued. That's a myth. Ford only has to keep parts available through the original warranty period. If your vehicle is still under a Ford warranty, and the particular part you need has been discontinued, they will find you one. As mentioned, Ford will never replace just a bare block under warranty. It would be an assembly, which is readily available. [/QUOTE]
