Alright.. Engine Time

So.. ive found a complete 03 lincoln navi engine with 50,000 miles on it. Includes everything. From oil pan to engine harness. Even comes with the AC and other accessories.



Grand Total... $1,500 bucks... DELIVERD!

Good buy? im thinkin so.

Whats the story on why it is out of the truck???


MAjor things your have to research before you buy an engine.

Was the truck totaled?

That would be the only reason to pull an engine with 50k. I see no other reason in pulling a perfectly good engine. And did you hear it run?

it came out of a Navi that got rearended by a semi. No i havent heard it run. but this guy is a reputable parts dealer. He has sold many engines to buisness that fix cars. Im not worried about getting riped off. He also has another engine with 90,000 miles on it for 1.2k

Sounds little bit better. When I went to look at my engine they couldnt get it running. I was there for awhile figuring out why it wouldnt pop. Then I saw that the crankshaft position sensor was cut and missing. I cut one off another truck and spliced it in and it fired right up. I aint buying an engine unless I hear it run, but thats me. I picked up my 5.4 out of a totaled 98 Navi for $500

NICE!! I have been running my Navi engine N/A in my Expedition for about a week now and all I can say is HOLY $%#@!!!! The low down torque is amazing and gas milage is great! You will be really happy with the results of your swap!

why? he's got the complete navi engine from oil pan to wiring harness that's all he needs for plug and play action besides trading to his F-150 oil pan

you have to run the computer for your transmission and have it tuned for the engine you're running...

Not necessarily, you can get it tuned to shut off all the auto stuff the pcm recieves and sends out. Not sure if you can chip and tune the pcms on f150's as im a newbie and im not use to dealing with these trucks but im sure there similary to most fords so you can chip and tune the pcm, im use to moding my Crown Victoria.
