Go to www.crownvic.net and search the posts. You should actually have almost a straight swap out. Now the TBI setup and computer (with associated wiring) will have to go. Save them in case you decide to swap back later.

IMHO I would go for the 351 and add small chambered Cleveland heads to the set up. You would now have the extra torque you need to move a wagon, and the smaller heads will give you the HP you want lower in the RPM range.

It's just a SUPER-DUTY Mustang GT Sedan. 198K miles and still rolling HARD.

1997 Crown Victoria P71 SVT *** ex-US Marshall service (the CAR)
STOCK?? I bet it was modified.

13.26 @ 107.24 MPH 1/4 mi w/ me, tools, & full tank of 93 octane

I added CAI, NICHE 19 X 8.5 " wheels with 245/45ZR 19 rubbers, and completely rebuilt the front end with poly bushings, Kooks headers, 2 1/4inch exhaust, TCI 2200-2400 rpm Stall converter

.PLANS:: engine upgrade, 5.4L 2v stroker, rebuild interior in leather w/ buckets, thinking about turbos
