1993 3.0 rebuild kit

Been reading post for a couple of days now and engnbldr seems to be the most popular for rebuild kits. Any other recomendations?? Will also need heads worked - should I try them as well? Live in South Louisiana and will have to ship them there and back.

I think alot of guys would highly disagree with you. As for junk I don't think so. Keeping it maintained properly is the key to its longevity. Sure it has its quirks, but I like mine and also like working on it. Maybe its just time to sell yours. Good luck
