you should see my old stand...no new raptor motor would look good on it

Hey no worries I was just in HF on Thursday getting lifting straps. For some things why pay more?

Where did you find this? 6.2’s are unobtanium these days. Looks like a 2011 or earlier version with the aluminum valve covers.

I also would like to no where this gem came from.

Pure Luck. Took the old engine out to rebuild and it sat on a stand for weeks awaiting rods and pistons and then looked on FaceBook and found a unicorn. Ford crate engine stored in a Ford Wharehouse.

Seems to me like the perfect time to paint your valve covers! No sanding required!

Aw man that sucks. I’d offer help if you lived closer. Since you were playing hockey I’m sure you’re nowhere close lol
