I have a guy here that runs a high end junk yard ( as high end as you can get ) and I can pick up a complet DOHC Engine, Tranny, harness and computer out of an 01 Lincoln withbout 25,000 miles on it for 2 grand. Doesnt sound like a bad deal to me. Assuming it will make a fair amount or powre or with a power adder added to it really romp out some good numbers. I would love to have a DOHC motor in my 86 Coupe.. Lowered, mean and fast is jsut a combonation that appeals to me greatly..

I love that idea! talk about high-tech for low-buck! I don't know enough to say what the differences are, but I would say for the money it's a great option to get the DOHC, even if it's somewhat lower on power.

Go for it, man! (if you're prepared to deal with the swap, I imagine it's quite a bit more involved than dropping in a windsor of any kind...)
