12 miles?????? did they wreck the truck on the test drive?

That was my same question, was thinking maybe dilivery truck accident or tornado or soemthing. Lkq is very refutable and had over 200000 posative feedback

What did it cost you for the new engine if you don't mind me asking?

Exactly, so when I saw that deal I jumped on it! Should be done sometime this week! Still wish I could find out what happened to the original raptor it came out of, I have the vin for it

Yeah crazy it only has 12 miles, was it pretty straightforward pulling the engine?

Without a doubt a pain in the ass cluster ****, but for the most part a strait forward process unplug everything, drain what you can, then tranny bolts, exhaust bolts, and motor mount bolts. Remove radiator and headlights. Not the easiest process but having patience is a must. Thankfully the guys I have working on it have the knowledge and experience needed. Once the old one was out , it's all downhill from there

I am going to putting my old valve covers on once I get them powder coated to match the truck. Like I said if anyone needs parts let me know
