Looking for a highly experienced mechanic to finish a partially completed same-engine swap on my 1990 Ford Bronco 5.8L / 351 Windsor EFI V8. This is NOT a full engine swap from scratch. The original engine has already been removed, and the replacement 5.8L engine has already been lowered into the engine bay. The truck is currently mid-install. The engine still needs to be properly pushed back/aligned, seated onto the motor mounts, mounted, connected, and prepared for startup. The truck has about a 6-inch lift, so please keep that in mind. You must have your own tools and equipment, including a hoist/cherry picker if needed to safely reposition the engine. Current condition: • Replacement engine is in the engine bay but not fully seated/mounted • Upper intake manifold is off and available • Radiator is currently out • Replacement radiator and replacement fan are available • Coolant, transmission fluid, engine oil, and other fluids are already on hand • Replacement engine has a new oil filter installed • Original engine is available for reference/parts if needed Remaining work may include: • Final engine positioning and motor mount alignment • Verifying transmission/bellhousing alignment • Reconnecting engine wiring harness and grounds • Starter connections • Vacuum line routing • Fuel line/system connections • Cooling system, radiator, fan, and hose connections • Upper intake manifold installation • Accessory/belt verification • Fluids, pre-start inspection, startup, and troubleshooting if needed Please only respond if you have real experience with Ford 5.0/5.8 EFI engines, OBS Ford trucks/Broncos, engine swaps, wiring, vacuum routing, and startup troubleshooting. I need someone who can look at the current state, confirm what else may be needed, and finish the swap properly and safely. Please include your experience, earliest availability, whether you have the tools/equipment needed, and whether you’re confident you can complete.

At low RPM, the red oil warning light comes on and starts flashing; I checked the engine oil level, and it was sufficient. At high RPM, the warning light goes off and the car drives normally. The car jerks when the warning light first appears if I am slowing down and driving at a low speed. Ford focus se 2012
