I have gotten the Lincoln Mark VIII and I have all of the engine companiets including the AODE transmission, the electronics, guages, air conditioning, in short I have the whole car and I got it for only $800. I will be able to sell the rest of the car sucha s interior pieces for parts and make my $800 back. I will be swapping in a front end from a mustang that originally had a 4.6 in it and as far as clearance everything looks as if it is going to fit. The 91 Mustang convertable that I am putting it in I purchased for $900 and is complete. Being that the motor puts out 280 hp which is quite a bit more than a stock 302 I feel that the 4.6 will really wake up the old fox body. With a vortech on it and a few more very simple mods purcahsed at hte roght proce i think low 11s will be possible. I was hoping that there was maybe someone else out there that had already done this and could tell me how they like the combo. Thanks for the input keep the ideas coming.
