We think timing chain related, motor looks like a junkyard engine

Starts right up though. It’s just purin’

I was hoping to see a crazy built diesel in a Cobra...

Was hoping for a 6.0 in that bitch.
That sounds just like mine when it went, was 2 rid bearings.

Update:

 

[mr2cam]

Both bolts were loose on both banks, have no idea why, it was a junkyard motor.. Sound a little better now?

 

[MG0h3]

Much better.

Wonder if the engine was seized from sitting, crank on the crank pulley, travels up chain, breaks bolt loose? Trying to envision that and not even sure its possible....

Ya im not sure what happened, someone had been in there before me, found a lot of loose bolts.
