Posted by: zapzach

i have an '87 lincoln town car with single exhaust.
i would like to put headers and dual exhaust.
can't really find much for town cars.

can i put mustang 5.0 302 headers on?
they have many more options for mustangs.
can i use mustang parts?
or any 302 parts for that matter?

is an 87 mustang set up like an 87 town car?

You can use mustang parts but for the headers I am not shure what they will and will not clear also rember your motor is not an 5.0 HO as for the exaust you can use the stock duals for a template

You'll be fine you have a lot of camshaft and head choices available too. How much money can you spend on the car?

You can use tons of Mustang engine/powertrain parts. The HO conversion is very popular.

Take a look at the 5.0 and 5.8 tech talk forums oncrownvic.net for upgrade info and ideas for panthers.

It will go on the block yes, for the rest of the car... I dunno

I'd just get some 2'' pipes first

Posted by: zapzach

yeah i was thinking about starting out with some bigger pipes.
i was going to have dual exhaust right before the rear tires.
i want to some loud sh!t
that's why i was thinking about getting some mustang long headers, and taking the cats off and doing straight pipes.
