Hello all,
Recently pulled the heads off my explorer because of a slight head gasket leak. Come to find out it was worse then i had expected, the heads on the driver were warped, and the passenger side was cracked. Called around local salvage yards no one has any heads for the explorer. Apparently they are a very popular item. Well long story short, i am looking to get a re-manufactured engine. I've looked at Parts Train and i will probably give the local ford dealers a call to see if they can possibly order one for less.
I've searched the forums about my next question, the explorer that i have was from California and has the California Emissions on it. Parts Train lists 2 motors, one federal emissions and one California, what mechanically or electronic difference is there between the two if any?
