i mean that is a really clean engine. but i just heard the other day someone finding a complete explorer motor for 400....go junk yard bro

gotn20 · January 13th, 2009, 05:31 PM

i got a 98 explorer motor for 200 from a local pick and pull.

flyin ryan · January 13th, 2009, 05:52 PM

doesn't have the forged pistons.. they stopped in the 92 model year and I agree go yank one out of an explorer or mountaineer

White Thunder · January 13th, 2009, 06:27 PM

you do what you want but I got 01 4.6 for my wifes convert from them and it looked like a dealer pulled it, it was cherry call them don't tell them about ebay ask them if they have the motor your looking for they only charged me $187 shipping and it had a 90 day warrnty

White Thunder · January 13th, 2009, 08:12 PM

sounds like a good idea.

Thanks everyone for your input, i know i can find a 5.0 at a junkyard, but im trying to find a 5.0 that is in really good condition, for my conversion/plan i got going for my 95.

you think i can find one with relatively low miles like around 80k and not beat up. most of the ones i have found have like 175k + miles on them?

idc what car it comes out of just as long as its a 5.0 and in good condition, been having problems finding a good one till this one i found online. And most of the junk yards around my place suck lol. Maybe i should keep looking.

White Thunder · January 16th, 2009, 06:55 PM

take your time and find a nice one. if it has alot of money...go 347. if your not going that far with it at least get a nice fresh 306 rebuild.....
