So I've been chatting around with the guys over at crownvic.net, and after much planning my Town car now has new plans. Some may call it crazy, I call it unique. Guess we'll find out.
Original goal was minor mods, and crossing my fingers for 400 whp. Heres where I'm going with it now.
My budget: 10 grand. Let's see how far over that I end up haha.
Modmaxraacing.com's road warrior 1000 hp capable short block. Decided to stay cast iron here for budget and durability reasons.
Manley 2v pistons, Thinking about 10cc dished to keep the compression under 10:1
Manley forged 4340 H-bean connecting rods
Forged 4340 8 bolt crank
Plasma moly rings
High performance king rod and main bearings
Trick flow twisted wedge 185 aluminum heads, 1.84 intake, 1.45 exhaust, 38 cc combustion volume
Comp Cams Ford 4.6/5.4 SOHC Xtreme Energy XE278AH Cams possibly? Still deciging on cams.
4.6L PERFORMANCE IMPROVEMENT (PI) INTAKE MANIFOLD
80mm throttle body
Melling 2V & 4V Oil Pump High Volume
ADTR's Centrifugal supercharger system for Panther platforms, have not decided what pulleys I'm running, or what boost I'm going for yet
Kooks longtube headers, likely going for a full 3" exhaust
Obviously built T56 6 speed
31 spline axles with trac-lok, probably 373 gears
Metco Billet Watts Link, with ARP hardened stud
KYB Gas-a-justs all around
Metco Billet Upper and Lower Control Arms
Reprogram rear suspension, and run hd police springs up front
Addco front and rear sway bars
Still working some details, started ordering some parts. Project will really take off after I get back from this deployment (Likely April). Will keep updated as things progress.
New end goal: At least 750 WHP and tq. Going to go for the fasted panther record, which is currently high 9's and he's running an LSX in a p71 vic.
