Ford Modular Engine

[v8ian]

Is the Ford Modular 32valve engine any good, I am looking at a Motorsport 5.0 32 valver, manley Rods Steel Crank, dry sump, It is a damaged engine, when the drysump belt broke, it has blued the crank, damaged 3 rods and a piston, it was dynoed @ 465 HP on factory injection, obviously the crank will need to be checked for straightness but it could be a bargain or a can of worms,
Has anyone got the external dimensions of this engine???

They are good if built right. Google for dimensions its out there I don't remember where I found them. I built a 5.0L in my Marauder and is scoots good.

if crank is dead you may have gallded cam journal also some of the mods had issues with oil passages in early years.
