my first time post here.
I have 2 1989 lincoln continentals, both have the 3.8 essex under the hood. I know that they are not a Taurus or Sable but the continental is the closest thing to them.
One car has a blown engine, the other car has been wrecked,(fallen arches) but the engine is still good. so I would like to swap the engines out and make one good car.
so i could really use some of the advice from some of you kind folks here on swapping engines. this is my first attempt at a ford tranverse engine. its not looking as EZ as an old chevy nova would have been, if you know what I mean.
I have the Haynes manual and Chiltons. but they don't express the true knuckle busting grunts that go into a project such as this.
so I ask you, any good pointers out there?
