MKVIIRIP March 8th, 2007, 03:58 AM okay, so I was sitting down tonight with my friend, and I started talking about the Ford FPV Boss 290 Falcon that they only released in Austrailia. then I got this crazy idea (ya'll probably think i am on crack, but nope, just beer) to take this wrecked 2001 Lincoln LS and this engine out of an 03 Lightning and well, put the two together, of course with a 6 speed manual...with a bit of work, time and fabrication, i see it happening. and then if that goes well...maybe one of the AWD setups off the zephyr?
any ideas here?
I will take any input I can get
- Monetary
- Intellectual
- Time donations
- Parts
thanks,

02LSE96LSC91SE84TC March 8th, 2007, 03:44 PM The Lightning motor will stick about a foot outta the hood. The Zephyr AWD will likely explode with that kind of power.
2 problems right of the bat.
ksbga March 9th, 2007, 12:06 AM wouldn't the exploding awd be the only problem so far?
Just askin'...lol
pwr2killayak May 27th, 2007, 03:45 PM monetarily speaking, itd probably be cheaper to buy the lightning, and the zephyr.
Rodewaryer June 12th, 2007, 12:08 AM Or do the Jag S type R stuff.......400 horse and 408 lb ft or torque......with the ZF 6 speed, and that's stock.......
I know, I know, it would be cost preventive. But way stranger things have happened, trust me.
daves2000ls June 12th, 2007, 03:03 PM instead of the 5.4 from a lightning, you'd have better luck fitting a 4.6 from a cobra, really, the best bet for a larger displacement V8 would be a 2V SOHC 4.6, i.e. Mustang GT 99-04. Couple that with a tremec t-56 and a saleen series II supercharger, whoowhey, that'd be a car. Of course, with doing that you'd lose the functionality of most, if not all, of the luxuries of the LS.
nickandersonLS01 June 17th, 2007, 10:28 PM OR you could buy an s2000 and throw a 2jz in it, 850RWHP...

NateRW21 June 21st, 2007, 11:18 PM OR just buy a Ford GT, Stroke the 5.4 to 6.0, install custom cams and a kenne bell 2.8L blower; 1100-1200HP with ease in a car that is pretty much track ready right from the factory
But then again... they were talking about an LS, not a GT or S2000
nickandersonLS01 June 22nd, 2007, 09:51 AM I was just showing what some freaks are doing in Florida(the 2jz has put out more than 1200hp on numerous occasions). The s2000 is a RWD based 1500lb? car, they are throwing silvia rear ends in those + 1000+ hp = FAST and for pretty cheap.
BlntdEyez June 22nd, 2007, 11:01 AM Yeah that 2JZ motor is a monster. Toyota knew what they were doing when they built that motor.
KEATSLS July 8th, 2008, 02:54 AM I know this post is old but thought I would drop a message on this. A LS has been build somewhat like this but will never see the light of day. It was built by a company that does performance peices for Ford. The car had a 2003 cobra power plant with trans installed along with 14'' brembo brake bit a sweet irs system and a bunch of other little goodies. But like I said this car will never see the light of day and Im unsure even if it still is around. To bad would have been a crazy thing to see running around.
TDUB July 8th, 2008, 03:34 AM I'm pretty sure you are talking about the OLOA Lincoln LS, that LLSOC sponsored. It is currently rotting away in a Ford parking lot because it can not be sold due to liability reasons. It did run, however none of the electronics worked. http://images.google.com/imgres?imgurl=http://media.ford.com/newsroom/images/fordcom/bn/05onelap_lsengine.jpg&imgrefurl=http://media.ford.com/newsroom/feature_display.cfm%3Frelease%3D20598&h=200&w=300&sz=66&hl=en&start=8&um=1&tbnid=zma_vwzl-DeECM:&tbnh=77&tbnw=116&prev=/images%3Fq%3DOLOA%2BLincoln%2BLS%26um%3D1%26hl%3De n%26rlz%3D1G1GGLQ_ENUS280%26sa%3DN
