Whoever owned me before beat the living crap out of my car, was fine when I bought her but now 10K miles later I am needing to rebuild my bottom end... the car only has 50K on it... was thinking about pulling a 5.4L out of a wrecked Excursion or something and doing a motor swap, has anyone reading this done it before? All you true gear heads out there, I am on a tight budget so if I did a rebuild I would prob not have the money to do it the way the car deserves... I would prob just replace the pistons, rings, and etc but just machine and balance my stock crankshaft and rods. Any suggestions about this? Constructive opinions are welcome as well but please have in mind I am pretty broke and cant sink a bunch of money into it... Thanks ya'll for any help and suggestion!
