Thanks TJK IN CNY. A dealer would of charged me probably around $800-$900 to do the work I did for just $100. This was done on an 01 that I just bought with 70,000 miles. I had a 97, which I just sold, that had coolant leaking into the holes causing misfires. So after two months of dealing with that issue I became very familiar with the upper part of the engine. This was the first time after I got everything back together that everything actually worked right. Every other time I messed with something it would never run right and I would have to go back in to see which connection was not seated right or hose not connected. Everything went smoothly until I got to the easiest part, the oil change. The dang filter was locked on. The only way I could get it off in that tight space was jabbing a screwdriver through it to get any torque to break it loose. And it almost did not come off that way either. I should of took pictures of that filter when I was done with it.

Anyone have phone numbers for Global and Uneek? I tried calling Uneek at 661-396-8854 but it sounded like a fax machine picked up. I need some direction so I can order my COPs. I also can't find Uneek's ebay listing for all 8 COPs, only the single one for sale.

Installed new ones on mine when I installed the Supercharger. I used Summit coil packs which are made by Granitelli and have had no issues with them. Much cheaper than OEM from Ford.

Skybound 85. The only number I could find for Uneek was that same fax number. I just used Paypal and had no problems. Global does have a direct line but good luck getting anyone to answer. I tried for days and no one EVER picked up and was the reason I went with Uneek. Plus Uneek had very high sales and high feedback score.

Here is the link to the one that was for $75. All the others are for $85.

Thanks a lot guys! The strange thing is, I clicked the link and they look like the right part for my truck but if I look on the table they provide on the website, under 2003 it doesn't list my engine! I have a 2003 4.6 with the Romeo block, VIN code W. Did they just forget to list it?

They list it under 03 - V8 4.6L 281cid GAS FI N Engine VIN = W. They just have the truck listed for that motor in their add.

Besides, 508's fit ALL 2 valves - order em
