blue i had the same exact problem 7 months ago and had described the solution here on the board,and it works very well. what i did was take the goose neck fitting that goes on the exhaust manifold that the muffler ties into cut it in half horizontally rotate to have exhaust exit at roughly 60 to 90 degrees outward from the original exit. get a 90 degree pipe and muffler and install. you will be surprised at how much cooler the engine runs and as an added benefit your oil pressure just may run a little bit higher when your engine is up to temp, mine did. you can try all the remedies known but you will not have any success until you get that heat out of there. my opinion is that fords idea was not a better one. that muffler lying next to the valve cover was not a good idea,nor being under the gas tank was a good idea. i had put a new tank in my 2000 and went to remove the cap and it flew out of my hand hope this helps al
