4.6L SOHC Rebuild

Anyone know where to buy a rebuild kit for a SOHC weedeater? I'm thinking about buying a junkyard motor and rebuilding it for the 'bird, then swapping it in place of the tired 250,000-ish mile motor that is in it.

It'll be a while - I'm just sort of throwing ideas around and seeing what kind of $$$ I'm looking at.

Re: 4.6L SOHC Rebuild

I can piece parts together from my suppliers but there is nothing in "kit" form.

I haven't rebuilt a mod motor yet but if like the pushrod HO 5.0 then there is a good chance you could pattern hone the block, reuse the pistons....if good....

Summit engine rebuild kit...

I'd be sure that covers the year of your car. It said 95-98.

Re: 4.6L SOHC Rebuild

Beware of some of the Summit "brand" kits....they don't always have the greatest parts included in them.

I am picky about which bearings and rings I use...some of their stuff is OK but when putting kits together they often go for the cheapest stuff

What wrong with speed pro and federal mogul parts? Worked fine for me.
