Dean, don't forget to do all the common failure items on the new-used engine before putting back in the car cause it's a pain later. Eg Y coolant pipe, oil cooler pipe to water pump & supercharger coupler! Good luck with the car, it's an awesome proj! If it gets done on time think about bidding on the 2023 corvette that's now on Copart.

@SavingSalvage - Dean, an episode deconstructing the knackered engine would be interesting to understand the damage the water caused? Good luck with the build!

Definitely 👍 on my lambo block it damaged the cylinder walls.

[@VXRretro]

I think you should do a strip down of the old engine to see exactly what the issue is, a good little video for people that are interested in that stuff. Madness u cant get parts for the engine either, another reason why insurance is so expensive.

[@rockyhudson]

Same why didn't he check the oil before starting it?

[@SavingSalvage]

@@rockyhudson you can’t check the oil unless you drain and refil.. also no reason it should have oil in. And you can crank an engine without oil in it.

[@banditdarville.]

I came to the comments for that reason........ For all he knew, the sump could have been full of water........ So possibly didn't need a new engine if he'd have drained the oil / water before going at it with a breaker bar and starter motor with no fuse protection.......

[@SavingSalvage]

@@banditdarville. the engine just inhaled water, if the engine was physically full of water it would have been in a much bigger floor and therefore it would have been Cat B and not allowed back on the road

I've had an XF with this engine in for the last 6 years, they are incredible when they work... I'm extremely envious of how accessible the rear coolant bridge is in the Ftype as in the XF it's almost under the dashboard! Like any Ford or BMW, assume all the black plastic coolant parts are cracked. One of them will be.

Your lucky if you get it going, I bought a flood damaged 2019 SLC, I don't have a Ramp tried turning on the crank seized solid, put a cheap Amazon camera down the bores loads of corrosion and water, in the end I did a simple test, got a long BBQ skewer, put it down the 4 bores and it went in further in one bore more than the others which told me the conrod was bent, took the engine apart piston number one Conrod was bent like a banana still in the middle of rebuilding the engine, I wanted to save it as it's only done 15,000 miles

[@FreeThinkingTruther]

I always wanted one and they've finally dropped into my bracket. I'd love to see what you made of one.

[@soulsensations8093]

That's the last ford V8 that was made when Jag was owned by ford. I used to work for a company that used those engines to age catalysts for JLR. They used to drop valves all the time and they were hard to come by new in 2019 -20. We had to use recon ones once ford stopped supporting JAG. So not surprised you couldn't get bits 😂

[@jamesgeorge4874]

It's the AJ-V8 Gen 3, based on the same AJ series V8 that was designed by Jaguar, it's not a Ford engine, although Ford used the second Gen AJ 4.0 in the LS and Thunderbird.

[@AndrewDavies-p2f]

​@jamesgeorge4874 Not a Ford engine as such, but some FoMoCo parts and built at Ford Bridgend Engine Plant.

[@lennyp18]

I was looked after by JLR when the F-Type was launched, and I got a drive in it around an old RAF base. This is my “achievable dream” car, without a doubt.

[@HQBProductions]

Dean…you are a brave man taking on so many jobs and all at the same time…you must keep each set of bits in different containers to stop them getting jumbled up! On the car, yes the engine is scrap but the body shut lines looked a bit random at the front as if the owner had powered into a flood at a fair speed and the water had pushed all the front valance and grille slightly backwards. When the engine is out,give everything a good check and see if it all aligns properly…you need a full respray going by your inspection so the repair margins are financially very close.😬😬Good luck! 😃😃😃😃😃

[@The_journeyy]

That's a good price to be fair considering you can do the work yourself looking forward to this build

[@johnmills3619]

Change the coolant pipes if they are the original ones as they are prone to failure. Good luck! 😊

[@Wiltshire-observer]

That horrible rattle sounds like small end bearings. It quite possible someone started the engine with some cylinders full of water, which hydro-locked it. The engine was running on all cylinders so expect still enough compression left to run the damaged cylinders. The hydraulic lifters may also have been badly damaged. Without testing for oil pressure and compression test each cylinder, it’s difficult to be certain. It didn’t sound like big end bearings though, so could be a potential fix for someone. The engine was very tight at first due to the rust buildup on the cylinder walls where the water was still present-hence the explosion of rusty water when you cranked it over with the plugs out. A fun engine rebuild for someone !.

[@martinwright5853]

Great car Dean, please remember the air boxes they must be full of water. I'm sure you did it off camera. Don't want a repeat on the new engine. Keep up the good work

[@chris2414]

Dean you are a car rebuilding machine! The amount of projects you have going at any given time is crazy especially with that lambo too!

[@lozcb1]

Braver than me Dean , I did a Maserati Gransport a few years back hydrolock , was a bent conrod in the end , but i would have drained and re filled the oil first , and then use an endiscope to check the bores and valves , as it could of been a bent valve , a lot easier

[@Dadeets]

It’s mint how nothing really seems to phase you. My head would have come off at the prospect of finding an engine, fitting it and the worry of it running well. Fair play Dean you got some skills and stones my man.

[@SavingSalvage]

There was a moment when I looked at it and thought… I’ve never worked on a jag in my life and the first thing I’m doing is dropping the engine and box out of a 5.0 SVR 😂

[@andycampbell5491]

Having had 2 SVRs the first being a 67 plate, I can tell you that there is a host of of differences to the FType R, although I’m not sure how close the R becalm once the SVR was dropped. Front splitter and rear diffuser I believe are different, exhausts are inconel and titanium and much lighter. Suspension is different to the R. Interior wise; branding and seats. Rear spoilers were all carbon fibre. I fantastic car which with carbon ceramics and hence different wheels looks stunning. The pre Sept 18 cars sounded awesome. I didn’t want to get ride of my last one, a 19 plater, it had 13k miles and was just short of five years old. But I did buy a 992 TS which, sadly, sounds like a sowing machine. Bring back my supercharged V8.

[@paulmorrow8372]

Fun fact, all of this era of JLR products have 8 cylinders. It is just a question of how many pistons they have. To reduce production costs, the v6 and the v8 use the same block. The “V6” version uses the cylinder heads from an inline 3 Ford engine on each side.

[@loonaticsrunningtheassylum]

The problem with flood damaged is to do the repair correctly and not have numerous wierd faults a few years down the line. All wiring and electrical items at least under the bonnet (if only driven in deep water and not gone inside) need replacing.. else it will all look like your starter wiring.. and that sounds is text book bent rod.

[@carlelliott6758]

Having had the same noise on another v8 it sounds like a bent valve that is stuck open and the piston is hitting it, check with boroscope and you may see witness marks on the piston

They are also holding their used values incredibly well. Mine has increased in value since I purchased it earlier this year. They are an incredible vehicle.
