My car is a 1994 Lincoln Mark VIII, It's supercharged. I would post pics and a mod list, but I'm in the middle of changing/adding a few things.

If anyone searches my post you will find details on my Kenne Bell build and my Vortech build.

Was trying to condense all the blown ones in one place to help future searches so there isnt "Can this one fit? How about this one?" kinda stuff. Since we have a wide variety of different blown Marks it would be a nice place to start I thought.

Ya your right. Your mark viii blows lol.

Hi Bill I have the same setup as you and am having a couple issues could I ask u a few questions

 

[MarkVIIIS]

I'm selling my correct setup if anyone's interested. Gonna start a thread later

 

[MarkVIIIS]

Many other parts too

 

[Don Pfau]

Sad, but I look forward to seeing it.

 

[fuzzmancometh]

I'm the process of a tiny lil 1.5 kb install. I have a question for you kenne bell guys. Looking for some aftermarket fuel rails and wonder what options I have. I kinda don't want to spend 3hundo on aeromotive ones. Are there any other cheaper oprions for me? Or anyone have a noce that that can be painted? Lemme know. Btw I felt like a bada$$ until I saw all of your blown cars. Gives me something to strive for.

 

[MarkVIIIS]

Yeah it sucks but it's been sitting for almost 4 years and I need the money. The body's in rough shape I'd like to just sell it as a whole but if I can't get what I want I'm just gonna part it out I have a lot of parts in it.

what are you looking for for the package. if you do part it out, how much for the headers

 

[MarkVIIIS]

I'm gonna start a thread later so we don't blow this one up with my stuff but the headers are probably the one thing I'm not gonna screw around with so sorry unless you want the whole chassis

 

[MarkVIIIS]

I'm gonna try to sell it as a whole first but if I don't get any bites within 2 weeks then I'm gonna start parting it out

 

[Cobrastarmk8]

Kb2.2 non intercooled
8lb
Future dyno tune
Cobra manifolds with xpipe
Intercooler

 

[Markviiiedrea]

Looks like a fun car.

 

[NoLimit95]

I figured I'd post some pics of my friends long gone 97 Mark. He no longer has it though. I helped him pull the engine and the front bumper cover was sold, then the body was sold after I got the Cobrastars & LSC side moldings off of it for my 95. I also bought the entire exhaust system and some members from this site and from MarkVIII Enthusiast Community on FB bought many of the parts from the motor but anyway, this is what it looked like. I'll try to list what I can remember as I post each pic.

2004 Cobra front dress/inter-cooler, ATI damper, quick change lower pulley



WHIPPLE 2.3 2004 cobra cams, GT500 type cam followers

2001 GT 4R70W completely built. 5.4 planetary, Edge 3000 blower converter

2.5 mandrel exhaust

19" wheels and I don't remember who made them. He put them on another Mustang he bought. He did have chrome Speedstars on it before these. He gave me the Cobrastars and LSC moldings for free. Since we had the same color car, they matched mine perfectly on the 95.
THE END!!
