So in addition to the heads, ARP phaser bolts and cam tower bolts will be installed along with these comp stage 2 blower cams. Engine assembly and all that shit done in house.

Let's start putting the heads on! OEM Predator MLS head gaskets sprayed with copper sealant and ARP head studs for 2011 coyote.

Also painted the timing cover with engine enamel silver. Raw aluminum looked like poop over time. Now all freshened up!

 

[80FoxCoupe]

Time for cam install. Installed new oil pump with Ford Racing billet gears, MMR crank sprocket, GT350 primary chains, Accufab secondary chains, MMR driver side secondary tensioner flip bracket, ARP cam tower/phaser bolts, boss tensioners, new OEM guides and comp stage 2 blower cams.

Start with driver side, then passenger.

Button up rear main seal plate,front timing cover and double keyed ATI balancer with ARP bolt.

More progress.

My pal Earl came over to help run the engine hoist. He's a Chevy dude but is now certified in Coyote installation. He has a 71 Camaro the a BES built BBC with a F2 Procharger.

Anyhow, pulled the intake to install lift plate, put on oil cooler and flywheel.

This is like a cheap XXX lots of teasing waiting for the big money shot!

Does the rear main seal billet piece incorporate the thrust bearing like the 4.6? If so will be huge to help save the converter/crank from walking when on the transbrake.

edit: I'm special this morning... modular ford the thrust bearing is on the front....
