Teksid Block out of a Lincoln Mark VIII

WAP out of a Lincoln Mark VIII Updated Pics, Trades Welcome

Hello all,

I have for sale a WAP engine that was removed from a 1993 Lincoln Mark VIII. It is a complete motor from intake to oil pan. The pick a part place said the motor was in good condition. If you don't know what this motor is then let me explain. This is the same motor that was put into the 99-04 Mustangs with some slight changes such as the intake and cams. It is a DOHC motor and the block is a 6 bolt main studs and it has been said that the blocks are able to withstand a lot of horsepower. And it is 80 lbs. lighter than the iron blocks. This would be a great upgrade for someone that has the iron block or wants to build a motor to put in later. I removed it thinking that it would fit in my 1997 V6 with a little modification, but I was very wrong. It will take much more time and money than I had expected. I am looking to get $400 but will negotiate. I am open to trades. I would be interested in some Cobra rims, XCal2 or 3 and maybe M90 kit.

Thanks,
Ryan

Hmmmm. Would this motor fit in my Expedition?

 

[Ryeguy2006a]

I looked on wikipedia and it said that from 1997-2004 they used modular ford blocks so it should work.

The blocks alone go for 300-350, and another 200 for the heads, I can go as low as 450.

I believe Hot Rod magazine had a question about these motors in the tech section of the last issue (July or August). They will fit in Mustangs but the horse power on these is a little lower and certain parts won't interchange. I would do your homework before buying this if you're looking for a high performance motor.

 

[Ryeguy2006a]

I'm not trying to rip someone off. I don't know if you got that impression. There are certain parts that won't interchange. I was never claiming that it would. The intake manifold is completely different than the cobra manifold. Also the crank is not forged like the cobra and had a 6 bolt flywheel as opposed the the cobra's 8 bolt flywheel. As I said before I bought the motor thinking that I would just swap it into my V6, but there is much more work that I had thought, and would take more money than I thought. If you used the GT flywheel everything would bolt up.

Thanks for the free up.

Bro I hate to be that guy right now.... on another site we talked about this!


Thats not a Teksid block!

Incase you forgot

Me:
Pic's??? and pn casting on the block please! if the cast # is F6LZ-
6010-AB then we can work out a deal...

you:
The part number on the block is RF-F2LE-6015-AG/HC, but I am confused because when I searched the F6LZ-6010-AB, it said that they came in all of the Lincoln mark VIII blocks? Am I looking in the wrong place for the casting number. it was on the drivers side of the block.


This is from a Handbook on mod motors.....
There are actually four versions of the aluminum blocks. The first is part number F6LZ-6010-AB used in the 1996-1998 and 1993-1998 Cobra and Mark VIII cars respectively. They are made in Italy by Teksid who also makes Ferrari engines. The block is an aluminum alloy of SAE 319; it weighs roughly 85 lbs.

YOURS IS ALUMINUM BUT NOT MADE BY TEKSKID

 

[Ryeguy2006a]

So your saying that they only put the teksid blocks in some of the Mark VIII's?

Part # (RF-F2LE 6015 AG/HD) The "F2LE" indicates 92+ model year casting. = WAP BLOCK AKA Windsor Aluminum Plant
