Check your spark plugs. Cliff's car had a bad tick just before one of his spark plug blew out. I heard this, it sounded just like the famous engine tick.


Cliff, I am surprised that you didn't remember this.....

Sounds like the head tick, the car will run fine just tick.

The engine needs to be removed to pull the heads (per ford) but you can remove the heads w/ stock heads bolts NOT STUDS!

Updated heads are around $1500 a pair w/o core charge

Head gaskets are $100 per side

APR studs are $250 a pair...

Plus labor

I am going to wait until I need too. I will sweet it this season and worry about it during winter when there is a ton of down time for the car. Thanks for the info.:biggthump
