The TerminVIIIor before it was.............

No chrome strip, was it an LSC? Was it also bone stock at that point?

Either way, Mark VIII's are still BEASTS :headbang:

It was a base model.

Oh hell no it wasn't bone stock, just the engine, all bolt on's.

She was running 13.60's there.

whoa.... damn! I'm sure you've left a few people scratching their heads after you just totally dusted them at a stoplight... wow! what a freakin sleeper!

Most of the same mods you have on that car's latest version?

Can you PLZ send me a PM with the lost of mods you had to run 13.60's... I went to the track tonight with my buddy and now I am in the need for speed.

Any help would be appreciated. :feedback:
 
Do you ever wonder if some of the original owners of the Mark VIII (Those over 60 units who tend to buy Lincolns and Cadillacs New as they can afford them LOL.

Ever punched it down! :eek2: Could you imagine the shock!

:yourock:

Do you think that they sit around with their :invasion: card club and go :woowoo2: You a bad :q

Then again do you think they would call their car the "TerminVIIor" :headbang: and everytime they pass a Cadillac say "Die Mother :q Die Mother :q
 
nice video, i remember the 2nd week i got my mark i fish tailed pretty badly. that video reminded me of that!
 
he has a high stall converter and 410s for sure and the rest are basic bolt ons
 
And speaking of burnouts... Hey Geno, I gotta hand it to you, that burnout video at the Carlisle ice cream stand or whatever is FREAKIN AWESOME! Wish I was there to witness it. And hopefully I'll make it to Carlisle next summer.

In that video I only had the LMS chip, LMS mass air, MSD wires, LMS adjustable fuel pressure regulator, 255 pump, Baumann shift kit, 4.10's with Auburn posi, 160 t-stat, LMS carrier bushings, STOCK exhaust and 245/50/16's. That's it.
 
Ever notice how those Lincoln guys always have to powerbrake to get the tires loose. I don't have to do that. Matter of fact I can punch my STS at 5 - 7 MPH and lay 50' of rubber.

Powerbrake it? Are you kidding? LMAO!!!!

Yeah right.

Get real.

Plus if you look at the second burnout in that vid whn I am coming back to towards the camera there isnt a hint of brake at all even with hot tires!!!

These vids are from the MM&FF Magazine shoot with a track freshly sprayed with VHT and 275/40 rear tires!!! Yes I am in second gear by the time I pass the camera!! Lets see you "Caddy" layout 150 feet of rubber with a STOCK engine with nothing but bolt on's.

Nope dead stock base model exhaust. I had the maf kit though and that adds a little "noise" to the equation.

LOL! yeah.... I wish I had at least half of that stuff!
 
There's no doubt that the car has balls but I did see some braking going on when pulling away from the cam. I really can't argue this point because my car is 100% stock and has 200k + miles on it. I was just making an observation. And hey, after all it is L vs. C :)

Once I get some cash to do some work, there's no doubt she'll be a runner

I was just razzin' ya' back but like I said look at the second burnout on that same vid & there is zero braking. The first one there was a flash of braking but not needed at all.
