    A Proper V8 Swap

    Couldn't find a wiring diagram option on helminc so $36 CND on ebay will do. Should be a week or two. Honestly, I'd rather pay for the book than waste hours online digging through bs links. Thanks for the advice, I'll comb through the diagrams and note any differences.

    A Proper V8 Swap

    I should have been more clear, sorry guys. I realize my questions are a little out of the ordinary, this is a little beyond installing a stereo or changing the thermostat housing lol. Other than the message center buttons, can yuu guys think of anything aft of the firewall that could be...

    A Proper V8 Swap

    That's my main concern. The engine harness is still in place and will plug right into the new v8 computer. The clusters should have the same plugs shouldn't they? I'll tear out the v6 cluster and look at the actual wires to the plug.

    A Proper V8 Swap

    I think I'm OK there, the engine has its own harness that plugs straight into the computer.

    A Proper V8 Swap

    Little update. So again this swap pretty much died when i found the car to be in bad shape underneath, however like I said previously I've more less sorted out the rust and rebuilt everything important. In light of me finding a good computer and cluster, I decided to unearth my good v8 (120k...

    Wanna get rid of some coilovers?

    Also, not sure how many people here are aware (I know it's been covered previously) but the stance coil overs provide AWFUL camber. I haven't measured it but it's something like - 3 degrees. I know a few guys here tried to make custom kits but it failed. Stance swore my coil overs were the...

    Need the diameter and depth of lse or 06 front bumper fog housing

    I realize it must sound stupid but I've literally never seen an 06 or LSE LS lol. I understand what you're saying, and I'll just try and wing it. My C63 has nearly identical fogs and they break immediately. Literally, changed them twice now and within a week they were toast again. Speed may have...

    Wanna get rid of some coilovers?

    Cheap may be an issue. I had stance sell me their last set about two years ago. Last I heard they will make them to order. Paid $1,300 USD. Shipping it across the border brought it up to around $2000 CND...

    Need the diameter and depth of lse or 06 front bumper fog housing

    I've always wanted an 06 or lse front bumper. I'm in Atlantic Canada and to my knowledge, there are none in existence. Ebay rarely has them and shipping would be insane. I'm going to undertake making a conversion from my 05 non lse bumper. I have ordered the round fog lights and plan to cut and...

    A Proper V8 Swap

    Thank you again joegr, I'm so glad you're still active around here. You've been a great help over the years. Called buddy before he crushed it and he pulled the shifter. Best part is he pulled everything for me . Wish me luck lol

    A Proper V8 Swap

    I'm actually so glad you answered Joegr :D So when you say shifter, please excuse my ignorance. It's been years. Is it literally just the actual shifting box shown here? If that's the case, can my non shift select transmission accept the shift select assembly shown below and become shift...

    A Proper V8 Swap

    Here's to reviving dead threads! So I've got an update and a few questions. Obviously like most ambitious people we find here, life got in the way of my progress at the last time of my posting. The fact that I now daily my C63 hasn't helped my ambition of completing the rusty old Lincoln in my...

    Official: Stance Coilover Thread

    Did the rears today. Changed out the rear toe links with oem Ford too. These things feel awesome. They are much smaller than the stock shocks and fitment looked like it would be a concern, but they're much more firm so when the car sits they'e the same height. I did this in a rush and am just...

    Official: Stance Coilover Thread

    Arrived at the door yesterday. They added an extra $240 import duty, pushing the grand total up to about $2k.... I must really love this car ehh? I'm going to be away for another month at least, so I'll have to hold off on photos... I'm literally in the middle of nowhere up north right now lol ^^

    Official: Stance Coilover Thread

    Yes they said they're still going to be available but on a build-as-ordered basis. They quoted me 4 to 5 months production time lol. I spoke with stance directly, they were very good to deal with. However if you plan on purchasing these, I would recommend contacting whichever seller you decide...

    Official: Stance Coilover Thread

    I just bought their last set. Came to $1760 Cad shipped. $1370 USD. Honestly I priced out Ford, Jag and Eibach springs with decent shocks and its still around the $1400 Cad mark. I recently bought a C63, so it was tough for me to swallow this but at this point there's no real other option...

    Gen2 V6 to V8 swap

    So I've been a little busy with work to finish this swap (like probably 99% of the people around here who attempt them). Also, I managed to find my DREAM car with only 6000 miles on it. This thing has spent its life stored inside and never held a single passenger. Welcome to my car family a...
