Miles were getting high on the Jetta we had. Decided it was time for a new car. Always liked the new fusions and ended up with a very nice 2013 fusion se with the apperence package and my ford touch. This one also is a certified pre owned so worry free until 2020 with a full manufacuters warranty. Only plan for this one is tint the windows. Anyone else have a ecoboost fusion on here? Anything to watch for?

Couldn't that make the chains jump?
Also no clue. Told him to set it at what he thinks is best for a na setup like mine.
Thought about having the heads and intake ported but decided against it. Probably just run this motor for the year and either build the other block I have or do a coyote swap.
Very tempted to try a 100 shot on this car. Never messed with nitrous so a little Leary on it.
Yeah it's nice out and I want to drive it lol. Hope to have motor and trans on by next weekend.
Anyone know what the oil priming procedure is for this motor?
Yeah. Guy in circlevile did them. valve covers intake ect just sitting on the motor. Going to gasket it all in the morning. Also picked up a magnaflow catback for it.

Went and orderd a clutch, motor mounts, all the gasket, oil pump, clutch cable and quadrant, egr block off plate ect. But I did forget the header hardware.
Had the heads check out. There good to go. Ordered the timing component kit, head gaskets, and head bolts. I'll pick up the other gaskets local. Decided I'm going to put long tubes on the car. Going to get the motor all together and pull the k member. Figure be easier to drop the car onto the k member with the motor and trans already together. Suggestions?
Purple power and a diesel powered heated power washer
Mark 8 shortblock. Don't know. No block number. All gone then there's a new number engraved on it. Pretty sure it's a re man ford motor.
Now I'm at the point where Im about ready to put the new motor together. I'd like to degree the cams but I don't know how to do it. Anyone know someone who has the tools to do so and wants to make some money doing it for me?
Love to but sounds expensive lol

The new autocross car. Doubt it will be ready for a event for a little while. Motor is just about ready to come out. This one is c head swapped with mach 1 intake. Guy swaped it never tuned it and broke it. Has a rod knock. Need to get the motor out and torn apart to see the damage done and go from there. Debating on picking up a mark 8 motor, putting the c heads on it and put that into the car for the year and build a nice shortblock over winter for the car. Would love to eaton swap this one. Also need to pull the drag shocks off the back and ditch the sport lines that are in it. Headlights as well. There hideous. Cut the whole exhasut out as well. Had a hacked up x pipe on it and delta flows.
