In my search for a v8 donor for my Yard ornament I call "my truck", I have stumbled upon some info that I found interesting and I was wondering if it was true. In a different post "rjaaaa"(?) mentioned he has a 4.6 v8 in his Ranger, mentioned I had a DOHC V8 Lincoln Continental, but would need a tranny out of a Marauder or mustang. Then "pjtoledo" mentioned something about the Continentals had a different bolt pattern than other 4.6 v8's due to having to match the Taurus drivetrain and possibly having the "Vulcan" bolt pattern. Does anybody know this to be true, or is it just ass-umptions and guestimations.
