Passenger side manifold.There are two brackets bolted to the back of the cylinder head (both utilizing 14mm heads) that will need to b… 1996 Ford F-250 - The hard part.

Ran fine...surprising well, actually. This explains a few things. 1996 Ford F-250 - Getting there. Intake gaskets have been leaking for some time. I am surprised at how clean the valley looks. 1996 Ford F-250 - Such a purdy head gasket. 1996 Ford F-250 - Looks like some fun is about to happen. 1996 Ford F-250 - Hm. Going to need new valves.

Some of the bolt holes that did no… 1996 Ford F-250 - Need to pull the EGR elbow out of the driver side manifold. 1996 Ford F-250 - Well....that just happened. If you expect us to pay $100 for a stpuid fitting, Ford, we expect $100 quality. This is not. 1996 Ford F-250 - Added bonus! EGR tube is junk. Wonder how long it has been split open.... 1996 Ford F-250 - It is an engine again! Note: Ford Racing 302 wires, PN: FMS-M-12259-C301, fit ALMOST perfect on a 460. Wires for cylinders 3 and 4 are a bi… 1996 Ford F-250 - Wire separators are far too under appreciated on a daily driver. First time using the zip tie-wire separator method. Compared to the bundle… 1996 Ford F-250 - F*** you Ford. A piece of metal that is the size of an egg costs that much....EGR tube fitting. At least this one looks like it is one piec… 1996 Ford F-250 - Hedman, the master of mediocrity strikes again.
