Oh god I'm having nightmares reminding me of a ws6 we had at school last year, everything tucked under the cowl or millimeters away from the firewall.....

Wawful's Mark VIII
- Thread starter Wawful
- Start date
So what sound does a loose or busted timibg chain guide makes? I think that's what's causing my mystery noise
Diagnosed Rod knock on cylinder #2, who wants to sell me an engine!?
Seriously I'll buy a reasonably priced long or short block in good usable condition. If you guys have one sitting around or know anyone feel free to PM me or post up =]
Hi wawful, nice to see another VIII in here. Unfortunately, this section is kinda dead. Why won't you introduce yourself on Facebook "Lincoln Mark VIII Owners Group". It has 200+ owners on there.
2007 4.6 FORD ROMEO BLOCK MUSTANG GT F150
New bottom end for my sad Lincoln, what do you guys think?

Go for it!?
For his spelling error in his ad
"The block has the fallowing parts:" low ball him $275 cash :-D
Well i'm still driving her. The knock isn't getting any worse....it ain't getting any better. I'm just gonna run her til she blows then start all over again.
At least she looks pretty

Going to pickup up a rebuilt short block with arp head and main bolts today. I dont think I'll regret the morning start-up anymore
Post up pics when you get it.:rockon:
Here is a teaser, I almost felt bad taking it for 350 bux, has most of the receipts and paperwork,
he also threw in 2v valve covers an oilpan, a front timing cover, a phenolic upper intake, and a flywheel
What a steal.... I just left it all in the Jeep since I didn't clear a place to put it in the garage so tomorrow I'll have more.
0 miles since it was rebuilt BTW

Busy day, but got some time to get this block into the garage and get some pictures!
Oh and my mistake on the flywheel, it was a flex plate

Found a low miles tranny and running long block still connected on CL and I'm, going to pick it up tomorrow morning. I only wanted the transmission but I got both for too good of a deal to pass up... Another block and an extra transmission never hurt anyone, right? Also comes with an ECU. It came out of a Thunderbird I believe he said it was a 96 but I can't recall for sure.

Okay guys I'm changing things up. I'm selling all the parts I've picked up. I'm going to buy a running mark block, then build the one with a knock. plus the iron block has dished pistons so it would mess with my compression ratio with my larger 4v combustion chambers. the guys at LVC helped me figure this out with minimal flaming.
Don't give up on her!! Your Lincoln is sweet!! Maybe she's begging for a Coyote swap??? We could have dueling Coyote swaps going on here, that would pick up the traffic I'm guessing!
Too bad there's not much traffic in here. I even requested the admin change this sub to Thunderbirds and Mark VIII's but nothin'.
By the way, there's already a guy with a Coyote swapped Mark VIII on Youtube, with twin turbos. It's nuts.

Thanks. I'm not facespace friendly, and am not quite at that point yet, but thanks for the info 
Just trying to think ahead to keep the ball rollin'.....
