As you tear down your engine for inspection and machining, make sure to keep track of the order of the pistons and the rod and main caps so they don't get mixed up. The rods on many factory engines, including our Ford 5.0L, are marked at the factory, so you don't have to worry about a mix-up. But if they aren't, you can get an inexpensive set of stamping dies to label the rods according to their firing-order location. This set cost five bucks at a swap meet. View Related Article
