4.6 from Lincoln ??

550 Views 5 Replies 2 Participants Last post by  clinks66
I have a chance to buy a Lincoln 4.6 for 800.00 it has roughly 1000 miles on it. It will be going into a 66 fastback if I buy it. Is this a good deal? Is there a way to adapt this motor to fit an auto transmission with the motor pointing to the rear end instead of "sideways" for the front wheel drive?. Is it all Aluminum and Does anyone know what this motor weighs? Is the wiring harness expensive, That's if the owner can't find the harness it came with? Does anyone know what the horsepower would be?
Any info would be appreciated,:smoke:

what year? if ur gonna get a 4.6 id get 1 that's already PI, i mean if performance is ur thing for it it'll save you the time/money for the swap
Decisions to make?

I picked up a New Ford Performance 351 Windsor, It is Naturally asperated. It has 660 HP, But was considering the 4.6 for more consistency and less adjusting. What to do? Don't know the year but I believe it is a fairly new motor.

Mounting a front/front engine into a front/rear is going to be a major nightmare.

There are plenty of 93-98 Mark VIIIs out there for swaps that already have a front/rear aluminum 4.6L. Just try not to butcher a good car. Some of us like the Mark series and would hate to see a good one chopped up.
