Default Re: Going into my 4.6 soon

With 110 on the odometer, it would be wise to rebuild the entire block. In my experience (w/ fleet Crown Vics) 100,000 + miles gets close to the compression ring failure area. It is not to say that you would experience failure, you just run the risk...

Pull and replace or just buy a good used low milage 4.6. In good shape it can handle boost and you may save money on all the labor and trouble involved in rebuilding and old NPI block.
