    Cam Phaser/Engine Failure Reports

    major part number saying these are phasers is same but engineering numbers not. Also, if you hear a 2019 had an issue perhaps it is user error. To be honest ___ All v6 dohc engines have timing issues. Standard all platforms GTR all of them. Locking vct will dog the low end torque but if a...

    Cam Phaser/Engine Failure Reports

    Ford semi blend oil is absolutely horrible. The low or none existent additives required for heavy duty forced induction direct injection engines is horrible for the engine. Ford doesn’t like 300k mile trucks and if they could make you buy new trucks at 100-120k they would probably force...

    Cam Phaser/Engine Failure Reports

    Timing kit would almost certainly NOT be inclusive of a cam grind. We would if I had to guess now, offer the cams separate and perhaps have a “RMB-G1-CAMSPEC-T-GRIND which will really be designed around addressing the issues with camshafts and them being in such positions a finger or two can...

    Cam Phaser/Engine Failure Reports

    They are not clogging up with what we found to be massive casting flash which came off the castings when engines heat cycled and flash would pop off over first 1-2509 or even 5-10,000 miles These phasers in photo have 60k on them, no issues motor craft oil changes to semi syn oil at 5,000...

    Cam Phaser/Engine Failure Reports

    That noise you hear that is ticking at cold start is likely the lifters not the cams directly. Can be common but not good, however if you hear it from one bank to another their is something worth opening it up and having a look to find what it is. The oem filters as well as most quality non...

    They want to confirm you use the oem filter because not all oil filters have an anti drainback in them. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Do you know who you spoke to there? I know them very well.

    Engine Breakin?

    Yessir we are. We specialize in a few platforms. Ford, the ford v6 ecoboost being one of them. We have been working on the ecoboost 3.5l specifically in great depths. Including engine dyno and development coming up here in a couple weeks. Setting that all up now.

    Engine Breakin?

    We use a very specific break in procedure on our engines. The same can be followed on a new motor We pull oil filter at 25 min/miles 250 change again 500-750 change again (we use breakin oil up to this point) 1500 change again to conventional race oil. 3500 we recommend you get Oil...

    GEN 2 A totally different rattle

    Would depend on what I had done to the truck. I swap motors like they are going out of style so new engine would be fine if you have other work done to the truck.

    Cam Phaser/Engine Failure Reports

    Happy to contribute when I feel I can. This platform is something we put a LOT of effort into, and one we will keep progressing and pushing hard. These motors are really efficient and make good power. I’ll say this, if these were offered in a mustang you would be seeing GTR type numbers and...

    GEN 2 A totally different rattle

    What did they replace the “engine” with? Long block would have come with lifter/rocker assembles as a service long block assembly. Or short block where heads transfer over. The good news is I am pretty certain ford updated lifters and that’s why your waiting. I have a some good info from...

    GEN 2 A totally different rattle

    What oil are you running out of curiosity

    Cam Phaser/Engine Failure Reports

    Yes, so the engine will turn over but not fire, injectors will be shut off. If you have the cold soak rattle on start up, it is due almost all the time to drain back. Oil draining back from both the phasers and the tensioners on the gen2’s. If you can prime the oil system, (example: gen1’s...

    Cam Phaser/Engine Failure Reports

    Just wanted to add a few things. I will follow up this tomorrow with photos of the internals of the Gen2 internals of the phasers. The cold soak and sitting 24-48+ hours and cold start rattle is the cam phaser not holding oil pressure so when it starts that phasers “clack” back and forth...

    Built motor

    Hey Chris. Glad you have the engine running well. Once through break-in (IE break-in procedure is complete and you have a chance to get a tune dialed in) any skirt noise you hear from the pistons should disappear. We use a FSR forging or forged side relief piston which has a smaller skirt...
