I'm wanting to build up a long block for my Lightning. What year core 5.4L motor should I select and are there any major differences in years that I should avoid?
I'm figuring I would like to just get a 5.4L Triton motor from a vehicle, get it down to a Long block state, and once built swap over the Lightning specific pieces. I'd be using new rods for sure and new pistons, maybe a new crank if the normal 5.4L engines have poor cranks. Might be interested in trying some TFS heads if they will work, anyone know much about these?
Thanks!
Ron
