Hello all. I am looking for some experienced input. I am going to rebuild my 5.4 in my 03 Expy. I need some help finding good prices on an engine kit (gaskets bearings etc.) I found one on Autozones site but i was hoping to try to find a cheaper option. Also their kit includes pistons. I doubt ill need them.
Also i was thinking about doing additional head work beyond valve job. Can someone provide input on what i need to tell the machine shop to do? I have never done anything like this. Im hoping to get more power kinda like the PI heads on the newer motors. Do i just have them mill the heads? If so how much? Also I am told that the block will support the additional compression up to 11.5:1, Can anyone confirm.
Thanks.
