Hi, I have just subscribed to this forum, got my car in April this year, I am in the Army and this was my gift to myself upon return from deployment. I love her, she is a blast, and a work in progress which I have just started. I bought the car with about 40K miles on it, has about 50K now, and I think whoever owned the car before me beat her real bad. Already had to replace the clutch, a few weeks ago started to notice hints of blue smoke when I got on her (rings need replaced), and when I was doing my last service she had a bunch of metal chunks in her oil... looks like I get to rebuild the motor already. I love her very much but I dont have the money to rebuild her right now, looks like I might pull a loan or something? Anyone know of a good stroker kit that is kinda cheap without sacrificing quality? Or does someone have like a 5.4L that they dont want anymore and willing to sell for cheap? LOL Thanks, and I look forward to being a part of the StangNet community!

Welcome to stangnet, sucks about the motor going south already. Could always call one of those warrenty places insure it and then get them to pay for the replacement.
