Moparjim's car is In getting a warranty engine .
Demonsrt is trying to upgrade his suspension and is having a hell of a time getting parts
And 16gomango had to rebuild his engine and is stuck waiting for parts so none of them can start their cars . I figured I'd throw a dig at them .

I told you way back that you would have your car running before mine.
However, I did not think it was going to continue even this long after yours.
I just hope I get it done soon. I am going nuts losing patience.

Little baby Lincolns are cheap, and easy to carry with you to wherever you need it. Don't even need a big fancy welder, but no shop is complete without one.
If its something in the bush you need to weld up, like a skidder, processor, buncher, loader or such, take the generator with you to power it.
My Honda easily powers my baby Lincoln.

Mine has had a rattle when dropping rpm when cold for years. It also has drank oil as if it was what it needed to combust.
The rattle has become more often.
The oil is still about a quart every 1200miles.
When it was new it used 3/4 qt in about 250 miles. And the same in the next 250.
I finally found a dealer that would not brush me off.
After about 3.5wks of screwing around it appears SRT gave the ok to get a new motor.

Yes, that’s my stock block. I only had it honed until the cylinders where perfectly round and all the same size, it’s now 4.0925”
Yes, came out the top and yes it’s the hard way but I had no other choice, I don’t have a lift like this other spoiled characters do, even worse I’m a one man band so it’s all me always.

I most likely will do the same next winter with stock block. hopefully stays together this season.

Is it possible that during the baking process they warped the flange?

Maybe . But I tightened them and all was good for a week or so then I tightened them again and was good for a week or so now I will tighten them for a 3rd time . I'm just waiting for my new clamps to show up then it will be fixed once and for all .
