nice pics and info OVERK1LL, but I always heared that the 4.6 was known for piston slap, esp after 100,000 miles, but It usually was never a problem, not enough to cause oil burning even after 200,000 miles. Unlike some of the GM motors were it is a real problem more than just the noise even at fairly low miles.
note my old 94 4.6 was ALL quiet on start up at 230,000 miles even after it sat for over a week in winter with 5w-30 tropartic and/or motorcraft oil in it. old betsy was the best car I ever owned
