Re: Engine seized 2 miles after rebuild
Barlea, I have a book which has a war time report in it. It stated the life of the Ford v8 motor was only 2 to 3 thousand miles.(in carriers) probably not much better in trucks. I suspect it was due to the crankcase breathing as much as the air filter. The germans liked our air filters better than their own.
