the 5.4 fpv v8 runs a chain for the timing, just the drive belts... but they are nice and easy to change, and more inmortantly if they to snap on you, they wont do any perm damage....

Look mate there a good strong car/donk, and it loks prety good from the pics...


There is 1 issues I've found with these... the auto trans fluid runs through the bottom of the radiator to cool, and the divider between the ato trans fluid and the coolant is only made of alloy on these models...

they have been known to let go, letting the 2 fluids to mix. your cooling system looks like it has strawberry milk running through it, and it WILL stuff up your box!

2 options, get a BFor FG rad, it had steel dividing walls, or get an after market auto trans fluid cooler, about $150...

Thats what I would do!

Let us know how you go..
