about two weeks ago a ford explorer came in with bad heads. So one friday i had a half day at school so i went and pulled the heads off and found a burnt valve and piston. Then the owner didnt want to buy an engine for it so my dad decided to buy it for me. this weekend while my parents are on vacation i decided to stay home and swap the engine with a rebuilt. i only worked on it a few hours today but there wasn't much left to pull it out because the heads were already off.

Do the work correctly, that valve piece went somewhere. Way to jump into a project

Have fun swapping engines.
Who rebuilt the engine?
Are you going to turn this one in as a core?

I know, that dirt looks like a piece of valve
my dad buys all his engines from his friend in maine, it was rebuilt there and its going back as a core
