I went with a rebuild last year from JASPER. Did a ton of research in this area and they were rated very high. I have had NO problems at all. It runs like a champ. Great warranty.
Good luck.

 

I don't think I can afford all that head work. I know I can't afford headers. Any idea how much torque or hp a descent cam adds?

 

I hate to push the point, I understand local is important, but at the end of the day you want the best engine for the money spent. The sunwest reman has a cam, bigger valves, ported and polished. I would consider pitching the 3.slow for that little beast.

 

the 3.eeeeeww

 

hey now haw did this thread go from rebuilding a 22re to hatin on a good ole 3.0 V-6. whats wrong with you people

 

What's that?

 

The little beast I was refering to was the built motor from sunwest. Looks like all the things I would do if I had the engine going down to block. the 3.slow is the 3vze.

 

Oh, lmao.

 

In my arrogant opinion?

 

I also prefer the 22re.

 

easy way to port and polish your engine... hook up the intake to a bag of fine grit sand and keep the rpms at about 4500.... will do it just fine.
DISCLAIMER: i am not responsible if your engine DIES.
anyone remember that thread?

 

I wouldn't try that on a Ford. lol

 

I would, do it to as many fords as I could find!!!!! lol

 

I paid less for a remanufactured short block (3 year warranty) and an ENGNBLDR.com StreetRV head...

 

Got my truck back today!!!

Man, it's cool how nice it runs. Before, I had to shift into 4th and floor it going over the river on the interstate. Now, I just leave it in 5th and barely give some more gas.

 

Sunwest does mainly 22r and re engine with new heads,and big cams.A small engine by engine job,no production line stuff like jasper. Anyway Im going fishing.Bye.
