A member Bigriver has a video of the engine rap. My engine is doing exactly as the video. It is either rod or main bearings going bad. I cut my oil filter at 80 miles and found aluminum looking particles. I cut another filter at 800 miles and found copper looking particles. Ford uses tri metal bearings in these Coyote engines.W hen you are into the copper of the bearing, that engine is done. And short blocks are a waste of time as the copper particles probably scored the cam bearings and the phasers. My car is bone stock and never beat on.
