Email ALL part requests to [email protected]. Today we tear into a bad Ford 5.4L 3-Valve Triton V8 and find out what went wrong. These engines are likely some of the most disliked engines in North America. From broken spark plugs to blown apart cam phasers, timing component failure, broken valve springs and more, these engines have a lot working against them. My name is Eric and I own and run a full service auto salvage business called Importapart located in the Saint Louis MO area. Part of our model is dismantling and selling parts from rare and niche market engines. I don't build or rebuild engines, we simply supply hard parts to those that do! Want to see a particular engine torn down? I may have already done one! No really, check out my other videos for the engine you'd like to see! I've made over 70 other teardowns from a Cummins to an LS7, and from Rotary to Ram Ecodiesels. You can expect a new teardown every week!

Just wait and see! -Eric
