I have a project i need motor trans for and the Lincon LSC seem to be cheap and plentiful my brother scored one for $300 running awesome we hit it with a nitrous kit we had and did some sweet burnouts. I was wondering if the air suspension would be able to be used on my 53 ford? Would this be a waste of time?
yeah it should have a 5.0 and an AOD trans. the airbags could be made to fit but I dont think they have much travel, I've seen them used in the back of a rod.
or depending on what year it is it could be a 4.6 my 97 lsc has the 4.6 and runs it ass off.... the air suspension on these cars is not that reliable.... never had any probleme with mine but it was replaced in 2002.....
So what is the bore/stroke of a 4.6,and how many cubic inches(for us oldguys)?? It looks like the plugs go in the top of the head,or an I wrong? thanks sparky
Jalopy, whenever you hear an engine size in liters, multiply it by 61. It's actually 61.02 but fuck that last little bit. That makes a 4.6L a 280 CI engine. It's never 100% on the money because you can round up a litre measurement but it's close. My totally gay Honda winter beater has a 1.5L engine in it. Do the math, how pathetic is that?
280 cu.in.?? Man what a puny P.o.s.. My wife almost bought a '91 towncar with a 4.9. I cringed at the thought. I thought it should have at least a 5.0(302). Thank God she listened to me FWIW, It would probibly be ok for a lightweight rod,especialiy if you got it cheap. My little 283 dragster did go [email protected]ks Sparky
