What years of the Mark 8 fan and shroud are the ones to upgrade the 03-04 Cobra’s with?

Does Rock Auto or any place offer a new or refurbished Mark 8 fan assembly?



Thanks
Ken

I just did this to my cobra the best year to get is the 97-98 Mark 8's the motor is one speed but it pulls the most cfms from all the years. Its hard to find a new fan that matches the specs of the original I ended up getting mine from the junk yard and its been working great. I am going to be swapping the motor out eventually.

I'm at boneyard now,,not that I need a housing.

But what's your thoughts on abs sensors ,,are these a unicorn ?
I wouldn't think so. As long as they bolt to the housing the same way as the Cobras do. They're just magnetic pick ups.

Funny this thread came up I went to the one local to the new area I am in and they have a 93 and 97 mark 8 full motor; may be a month or two but I am looking to pull them both as I want a teksid block for myself. What block was in the V-8 panther platform Lincoln’s if anyone knows off hand. They also have a navigator or two with complete engines. Some more rare cars and a complete four eye fox front clip that looked in good condition.

Was going to use the block if it’s good; having a hard time finding any info on the DOHC motors from the continentals. They use a different bolt pattern for transmission but found little on block material. Probably a waste of time as I have no front wheel drive V-8 project needs.

The mk 8 block is the teksid block with b heads.
Post up on the nasvt Facebook page.
You will get very quick answers!

There are probably some na svt posts floating around on svtp.

Iirc the conts had the c heads and the wap block...correction it was a fwd block.

The panther was a 2v block....
