Why change to a smaller engine instead of the larger one.
I know why your changing engines ,My question is smaller not larger ?
How much could they charge for a simple non turbo v8????

I just received a notice from Ford about 'cracked valve' issue and warranty remedy in the works.

Did I miss something on the forum?? This seems to be the thread that started it all.

Add my 23 WT with 103,435 miles to the list. My extended warranty expired at 100k 😔 What are the stealerships charging for long block replacement?

Sorry I disagree.... a 23 with 100k is not what this thread was about. This was the list of vehicles that had the bad valves in 21/22..... Yours is not that issue. I am sorry to hear yours only made it to 100k. Personally if I blew a motor at 100 k I sure as hell would not be looking at a stealership replacement. I would be pricing out a V8 conversion though.

I'd never pay a stealership $18,000 for a 2.7. I'm going to buy one off eBay; looking at this thread, I'd be pretty safe getting an engine from a wrecked '23 2.7L with 18,000 miles.

34K miles/year? What are you commuting to TX?

Like @5GENIDN said, this thread was for the early 2.7L builds with the faulty valves.

Check Carpart for a salvaged 2.7L to swap out.

my response was based on your question... "What are the stealerships charging for long block replacement?"

I would absolutely agree that finding an " engine from a wrecked '23 2.7L with 18,000 miles." would be far more cost effective.
