[QUOTE="98 svt, post: 16778583, member: 183643"] I spun a bearing on my 98 back in 2010 or so. Bought a new Aluminator 4.6 short block from Tousley Ford, and had a shop do the work. The shop took many months to get it done. When I got it back the engine had a knock in it and Ford claimed it was out of their warranty period. The engine lasted 500 miles. Shit, that took all the wind out of my sails. I let it sit for about 8 years. I was just so sour with it all. A few years ago I had the whole car gone through, and a new built engine, turbo, MM suspension etc were done. I've had so many miles of smiles since. I knew I'd eventually get over it, and be pissed if I ever sold it. It's the last car my father came to look at with me when I was thinking of buying the car back in 2004. (He was a Ford employee for 30+ years) He has since passed. I don't think I could ever actually sell it. I guess what I'm saying is, be patient. Let the car sit. You'll most likely come back to it.
