It is 2:54 am and I am so pumped. When the key turned over and the newly rebuilt 4.6 L fired to life it was a huge weight lifted off my shoulders.
An all OEM rebuild with parts courtesy of Beno took Betty up to a 4.6 liter due to a +1mm overbore of the cylinders. Wow is this thing powerful. Went on a 20 mile test drive and received nothing but pure enjoyment and smooth engine operation.
A few exceptions to the OEM rebuild were things like a firewall heater and PHH hose. Or the Clevite thrust washers. Or the Hastings chrome piston rings.
Here are the final pictures of the engine rebuild.
