So after a long 2 months and having the motor built by non other than Rich Groh with www.rgrengines.com, my baby is back.
Sad part is I'm probably going to list it for sale this week to help out my employees here at work but they are worth it.
Here is the link to what happened to the car prior to me taking it out east for a rebuild.

Turns out it spun a bearing.
Now nothing against Ford Performance since they sounded like they would of been willing to send out some stock parts to help me out, but for a motor to go withing a couple hundred miles of the build and for no oil issue, no high revs til brake in etc was very upsetting.
Yes I could of bought a new crate motor and been done with it but even if I did that i would of torn it down and inspected everything so with that said it told Rich to do it the right way.
He replaced crank and balanced it, put BOSS 302 chains and tensioners in, Billet OP & Crank gears, forged rods, did his thing and built it right. Yes its still stock but its a reliable perfect horsepower motor for these cars. I didn't want to go crazy for higher hp when this does the job perfect.
As I have been sitting waiting in my empty garage for a while now my vanity plates did finally arrive so I figured I might as well put them on until she is sold.
Also anyone looking to have a car shipped you have to call these guys www.unlimitedcarcarrier.net/?utm_source=gmb&utm_medium=referral . Picked it up in Chicago on Saturday the 06-20 at noon and had it here in Scottsdale today 06-22 at 10:30am.130368130367130369
