On my 420 mile drive, last Saturday, I noticed a pretty rough idle when I was in Flagstaff. It smoothed out just fine about 2000rpm and I was hoping for maybe a bad cap, rotor, or wire. Drove on home, ran fine at 90MPH. Found the issue Monday. Can't really blame the
oil, although I'd heard of problems with it before. All the other lobes look just fine. I'm sure it has taken a long time to do this much damage. Never have been impressed at all with the engine's power, but then, after being used to my OhSheeet Rat Motor's power, I just figured that's all there was. I just accepted that it was a Ford and didn't have anywhere near the 600HP and 600#s of torque I'd been used to. Really looking forward to seeing how she feels running on all eight cylinders.
