    GEN 1 Cracked Gen 1 Valve Cover

    I own and daily a 2012 supercrew, and in the process of trying to install new VVT solenoid gaskets, I cracked my driver-side valve cover. Of course, all replacement parts appear to be discontinued. Are there any suitable replacement parts that are out there that I can buy? Any input is appreciated.

    I have a 2014 Ford Raptor. 6.2 V8 engine. It has 165k on it. The other day I was pulling it into the garage and heard a new sound.

    Texas Engine Builder Recommendation

    Looking for recommendations for a trusted engine builder here in Texas. Roush 6.2 let go a few months ago and my search for engine builders has come up short with only one or two shops able to do it that are either +6 months out on work or far too expensive. Would prefer to rebuild but if I cant...

    Upgrading the TWINS

    So, I decided to upgrade the TWINS. And since I am no longer restricted by my warranty, I am removing the factory restrictions from the intake and exhaust in one fell swoop. I am calling this project “No Restrictions". I’ve done a lot of things with engines. This was my first turbo swap. I...

    GEN 2 Let's see those high-mileage (over 100k) Gen2 Raptors.

    I bought this truck on September 17, 2018 and hit 100,000 miles on September 10, 2020. The only issues I had with the truck was that I needed the PCM reflashed due to shifting issues between 3-4 and 7-8-9. The reflash solved it. One other issue is the white smoke out of exhaust after extended...

    Truck Runs Horrible When Cold

    I previously owned a 2017 Raptor that had all kinds of issues and now I have a 2019 which runs great except for when it is cold (my 2017 also did the same thing). I have never had a vehicle drive so different when cold verses warmed up. The acceleration and shifting is horrible. It doesn't...

    Roush engine failure

    I wanted to see if someone could help me. My Roush 2014 raptor with 38K miles had a catastrophic engine failure with an oil pump failure. Apparently when I contacted Roush and Ford will not cover the $20K to put a new engine in with labor. Anyone have any recommendations or heard of something...
