5.0 Questions

merlin · 05-27-2008, 07:13 PM

my sister got her 1994 5.0 hot and ran it hot so we are pretty sure that the heads are warped or cracked and who knows what else.

So my dad has a 89' lincoln town car with a 5.0 with 70k miles on it so what are the chances we could swap everything over to the lincoln block an heads?

any ideas and advice or plan of attack would be greatly appreciated

Thanks Merlin-

Same motor in both cars just different computer boxes ,they should interchange.

thanks but it looks like we got lucky cause the car seems to run good.

except for problems that were happening before the overheating.

problems like running poorly after extended highway driving,

the car has aftermarket headers and no cats so i think that there might be a problem with the O2 sensor but not for certain.
