What Can I do...??
 
Okay so some of you guys might know I got my mustang for $100 because a lady at my work didnt have the money to fix the problems and she was going to scrap it.. So I saved it, Anyways today I came back from lunch and my boss says to me, You need to thank me and I was like ok why? So she hands me the title to a 1995 Lincoln Continental 4.6l V8 and says merry christmas to me. The only problem is it needs a transmission to make it run, but I was wondering, can I make this motor fit into my stang??, (Its the same motor thats in the 99+ cobra as far as I know)

Tips, suggestions on what to do with it are appreciated :)

It will not bolt up to RWD Trans the back of the block is different

it cant be from a 99+ cobra if its a 95, unless swapped. is it 32 valve dohc? i would think maybe 96-98. but i could be wrong.

thats what i thought too. those lincolns had some giddy up . i would think it would be a fairly easy swap as those are 4.6 in there ? and i agree go for it

Captin Spalding 12-30-2006 03:04 PM

continentals are FWD hence the engine wont work!

Planned on it but theres snow all over the ground and its literally 1" off the ground with the tires tucked deep into the fenders cause the air suspension is screwed..

Can you see if it has a diff in the rearend?
