LM7 5.3 into 2000 Crown Vic
Vic is getting up there in miles (220k) and developed a lifter tick. I have been doing research and it seems like the 4.6 mounts will bolt up with little modification and a 4l60e/700r4 will drop in with little modification to the tranny cross member. This leaves me with the need for a custom driveshaft, a way to run the speedo, and a way to use the stock cluster for oil pressure and water temp. I want to run a carb but can't find the p/n for the gmpp intake that will use a vac. advance dizzy, does anyone have it handy? Also what valley plate would I need to run?
There are a few people who have done this swap but there is very little info on the web about it and my attempts to contact them have been fruitless. The only thing I am basing most of this research off of is SN-95 Mustang swaps.
This is going to be a long term swap as I still need to gather all the parts and I am on an tight budget as I am only 18. I got a job at O' Reilly's lately so hopefully that will help me out with parts, gaskets, fluids, sensors and what not.
Over all budget is about $2500 so hopefully I can get it done!
