When you have "black out" when pushing Start button, it indicates that your battery don´t have enough power to crank the engine. (or loose connection on terminal)

Update found no good head to use so going with the one which was already there l. This is 5.0 V8 NA so I am not able to find any aluminum cooling hose or pipes. Most of the timing things are changed should be able to start the car tomorrow or day after. Will keep you guys posted.

Got the car back today somehow guy put the engine back and manage to run it. However I feel like there is something wrong the power is not that like before and he told me that I need to change the gear box. Which I have no idea if should or no because he said the car is keeping the gear for a time when you push the accelerator and release it after some time I felt that too while driving back home. In dynamic mode it feels better made it can be happening because of the engine or you think I should look at the gear to replace.

Sell the car. Now that it is running, you won't have a total loss. Don't spend another dirham chasing (more) engine problems, transmission issues, etc.
