So.... new batteries and it cranks like a dream now, but still takes 5-6 seconds to start. Getting a puff of white smoke but idles pretty smoth and starts easier when warm. I'm going to tear into it next week and replace the following.....
stand pipes, dummy plugs, o-rings, oil supply and return lines, stc fitting, banjo bolts, recondition the turbo, and replace the oil cooler. Could use some suggestions on a cooler I should probably do studs since most of it will be torn down, but need to save some dough for that one.

OEM Ford oil cooler.
Sounds like a great plan of attack though. Do you know anyone with a scanner? Your smoke on start up, is it a fuel smell? You may just have an injector hanging up. I'd recommend trying some Rev-X, unless you know someone with a scanner of some sort and can get a cylinder contribution test done as well as an injector buzz test.

Wouldn't I run into the same problem of clogging with an OEM, or will it stay pretty clean since I am installing a coolant filter and doing a complete flush?

I can tell you how to reprogram your keypad too if you want, so you don't have to pay the dealer to do it. It would probably take you all of 10 minutes to do the keypad on the door and the fobs.

I have some Rev-X on the way, along with some Opti-lube. Don't know anyone with a scanner, but am considering buying one.
