You should upgrade the trans, engine bigger than specified for transmission will cause problems

@jstern7979

Don't need to upgrade transmission. Ford used this transmission behind the same 5.4 engine in various other vehicles such as Expedition, E250 with the 5.4 2v.

Thanks fellas right now im debating fix the merc or get a excursion 7.3 power stroke

[itsacrazyasian]

@luivillslugger

I have a 7.3 in a lifted F350 painted orange. Love both vehicles but i love my crown vics. Thought about selling my Vic's once. I quickly came to my senses, especially after playing tug of war with a Tundra, Jeep and a Blazer.

[luivillslugger]

What ells did you had 2 put beside the engine & trans

[itsacrazyasian]

@luivillslugger transmisison is mostly stock from the 4.6 save for a modified valve body

Sounds like a Half-life 2 jeep

@Shintsu2 No, thats how many gallons of gas he just used!!! LMAO

[luivillslugger]

Yeah I can't let go of my merc so I'm just going to fix her up as my show car

Gearing?

@RoscoeComedy lol no you need that for that comment ;)

@mazda6tuner99 light weight aero and its about 17 mpg. Lol

[JX426]

@luivillslugger the block, period. Heads are the same and a hps 5.4 intake keeps it under the hood. Go figure

[TheAndrey]

7.5 seconds. Is it good ?

[burninrock24]

I hate those digital gauges. They are always so jumpy.

Hmm... v10 Vic on the brain, anybody?

[xmodrock]

@Leafsrule016 i know.. its what makes them the perfect drag platform

[Leafsrule016]

@xmodrock I kind of gave up with trying to make my foxes handle better ... but there so light, they dont need much power to be fast. They weigh less then my 05 civic which is my daily driver, lol.

[xmodrock]

@Leafsrule016 the 2010 explorers have EXACTLY the same motor as the 05-09 mustang GT's.. the vics had essentially the same engine as the mustangs... but again i want an 03/04 COBRA motor in it.. the one with the blower and lots of horse.. and im just saying it would be cool if ford had made them that way stock.. but the fox's and the 99-04 cobras are my fav stangs right next to Elenore and the 69-70 boss stangs

[Leafsrule016]

@xmodrock just because two motors share displacement doesnt mean there the same motors, thats why mustangs/explorers had the 302 high output and old panther chassied cars had the "low po", same as the mustangs and vics with 4.6's. I'm a fox guy myself personally, i got a 93 fox body, its a nice car but the motors blown so...

[xmodrock]

@Leafsrule016 they all have mustang motors.. as do the 2010 V8 explorers so i know that.. im saying a COBRA motor is what the P-71s should have shipped with.. meaning the supercharged 4.6L.. the 03-04 cobras came with the eaton m112 bolted on at about 8PSI making 430 HP at the crank.. SOO thats what i wanted to see.. i got my 99 cobra.. and if anything for me personally i would do a 408W stroker Fox

[Leafsrule016]

@xmodrock i was listning an example of a mustang motor in a car factory .... and police cars are just worn out hand-me-downs, if you want a nice vic/grand marquis your better off finding a nice civilian one and doing a few things to it, any of the ex rcmp vics i see are junk you buy at dealer actions for $500 and then idiots buy/sell them for 4-5k because there 'p71s'

[xmodrock]

@Leafsrule016 what about it.. i was saying that an 03 cobra motor should have been put in these and the police interceptors

[Leafsrule016]

@RoscoeComedy um how is a crown vic a piece of shit and if it is, suggest some better cars as alternitives

[Leafsrule016]

@xmodrock mercury marauder

[RoscoeComedy]

u need a spanking and an enema for swapping that engine into this pile of poop car...
