Brian, I'm real sorry to hear about that. I hope you get it back up and running and don't worry about the haters, nobody on here has purchased a supercharger with the financial ablility to offset the cost of a new motor and swap.

Because the blue oval is perfect, never should they be faulted, God forbid. Brand loyalty, hah. I swear Ford is paying some to preach about the F150 being perfect.

 

I'm sorry to hear that about your truck.

With high performance mods (not bolt-ons), my experience has been, you gain power but lose reliability. If you want reliability, leave the vehicle stock or close to stock, or else, you'll always be working on it...

 

So very true, something is always going wrong with my e-fans or another problem elsewhere arises. It's funny how religious people snap back at you for problems that are typically not your fault.

 

Iam going to take apart the motor this weekend to see what i can find,We think it might be the spark plugs or the valuetrain or bad coil packs

 

How would a bad spark plug or coil pack be the cause if there is oil all over the top of the motor...I think you have worse problems then that. Good luck though, and I hope its nothing too serious.

 

The engines will last forever with a blower if they have a GOOD tune and stay under a certain power level.

Alot of people dont realize there are bad tuners out there... Thats where you have to do alot of research.

 

I just found out there are 3 bad pistons rings time to put a lighting motor in the truck

 

Love your F-150, everything is well done and if you're going to sell the procharger kit, allow me to have dibs. I want the push start ignition but am hesitant to pay $65 for it. The e-fan indicator lights I dig, I've bought what I need to do the same thing but one of my fans burnt out, not surprised. The controllers, fuses, etc all went out before the fan did though, good going derale.

 

Iam going to keep the supercharger ,and put in some new pistons rods cams and iam going to port the heads and up the psi to 12 iam hoping to make around 500-550 rear wheel hp

 

Thats an awesome plan, if you know Rafa on here...he's trying to reach 600rwhp. He's whipple'd for the moment. To replace the alarm indicator light does the smoked lense cap just pop off.
