Any you don't have to throw hard earned money into. In saying that not one of the e-series would get my vote. Ford stuffed a 1/2 decent car with the o.h.c. engine in the ea and still persist in using basically the same engine today in the ba. Which sadly has made an aussie icon as reliable as a taiwanese timex with a life span of a blowfly. And before you pineapple me and tell me how many k's are on your car....how many heads has it had in that time? Mines got 226,000 on it and on it's third head that i know of. Let alone head gaskets. Never had this much drama with my old 250 2v.

I agree the most important part in keeping these engines running for a long time is keeping the cooling system in top shape.

Well at least we are going to agree on one thing. The information that i have received from here has been invaluable.The amount of time wasted phoning and talking to mechanics that do not know their a.. from their elbows is amazing.
There are some questions that i have posed to mechanics are so different from the ones that are given here, its amazing, and to think people go to these guys to get their cars fixed and get ripped off. |

So when you find a good one, stick with them. That or learn as much as possible yourself and get yourself a good set of tools!
