Some of my favorite cars I've ever driven have been the sleeper oddball projects. From turbocharged Buick Regals, to an LS swapped Lincoln Town Car. Today we hop in a 2011 Lincoln Town car with a Vortech Supercharger on it making 400HP to the wheels with its 2V Panther Platform V8. So is this grandpa's ultimate sleeper? Let's talk about it!

My 2008 Lincoln Town Car Signature L blew its engine yesterday at 409k. Was considering washing my hands of it, but this is a hard argument that I should drop a newer Coyote into it. Great timing.

[@mattfields3052]

If you can’t get a coyote, find a 4v 5.4 out of a navigator and throw some goodies at it. Would be sick.

[@aronwright1023]

Coyote or V10 out of a F250 😎

[@smellsuperb1]

If you can't find a coyote for a good price, the 4.6 from the Mark VIII is a direct bolt in swap, and it's easy to build up.

[@SpikeRazzor]

Nah nah, Barra time.

[@david63390]

I have a 06 L. A godzilla and 6r80 would be sweet. However you can still make a lot of Power out of a 2v 4.6 I almost feel that's more insulting to get gapped by a 2v. Either way get it back on the road. Big sedans are now a thing of the past with vanilla suv's and small cars or trucks being the only options.

[@iandavis8755]

The License plate is CDR Cody ...that's awesome! That's a reference to the musician Commander Cody who made a song about Hot Rod Lincoln's...the owner has an awesome sense of humor! I have always felt that the body on frame US sedans would make great sleepers and resto-mods, and this car is a perfect example of that. What a change of pace as far as projects go, and it's unique...which makes it so cool. It's like an even more upscale Marauder, and I am sure it keeps up with a lot of vehicles who's owners would never suspect this. Seeing stuff like this reminds me of how I keep finding near-mint early 80's Chrysler and Dodge (like a New Yorker 5th Ave) full-sized sedans for sale in my area for really reasonable prices, that would suit a modern fuel injected 392 or Hellcat engine swap, and have one heck of a sleeper. Same goes for a few late 70's and early 80's Oldsmobile's and Pontiac's I have found that would suit an LS swap all day long too. Great video David, and keep ones like this coming!

[@kirkcarson1431]

I’m glad to see that someone caught that. I originally had those plates on my black 1994 Town Car. When I met the girl that is now my wife, she immediately got the reference. Not saying that’s the reason I married her, but it helped 😃

Waiting on my Kooks Headers and full true dual exhaust to get here. Next will be a PI head swap with a MHS Stage 2 Blower Cam. Bolt ons and fuel system while I’m at it. Plan is to eventually do a built bottom end and Tork Tech Terminator GT kit with an Eaton M112 blower.

I mean when you really think about it, the town car/crown vic is really the JZX90/100 of the US. Other than the fact that the jzx had a manual option from the factory, I'm surprised that stuff like this _isn't_ more common really!

[@kelevra558]

I fuggin LOVE 2v mod motors. I have a few tricks I do to them and on e85 they can handle 30psi. On 30psi a stock displacement 2v 4.6 turns into something undescribable and so goddamn violent I still get surprised. I've made a good living where I reside building 2 valve modular ford engines. My personal car made 1408 at the wheels with a glide behind it. There's not a manual trans under $25,000 that can handle that power. Its my drift car BTW. I have a gforce dog box in mine and every 12 hours of run time I have to pull it apart. That's running her at 22 psi. She still makes 1100 wheel. These little engines are no joke. You just have to do the right things and don't waste time on anything else because it's not necessary. Trick flow heads and cams, 1/2 inch head studs and I add 3 more per side. I machine my own main caps that have a N.S.E.W. capture. Then I deck my block and heads so flat, passing the tool so shallow you can't even see the path. I then reem a 2mm ring around each cylinder on the block. Most of y'all know where I'm going with this. The most important part is the bond of your copper ring. You cannot half ass that. I've seen some guys do some silly ass shit but the only way to do it is by practice and repetition. It took me 4 tries to get it right. I cut my rings 4mm long. Then I use an oxy torch with the ring pinned up in a stabilization rig I made for burning harnesses together. I essentially melt the ends and push them together keeping heat in them as I work to the aluminum foil I have pinched on 2mm inboard of the cut. Then I throw the things in my annealing chamber for 6 hours , work off the little rosebud on my belt sander with a 400grit belt and bobs your uncle. You now have a virtually indestructible head gasket. The weak point now are the 12 point 1/2 inch grade 8.8 ARP head studs as well as the threads they reside in. I have pulled a few thread caterpillar out of blocks don't get it twisted. But a simple, done RIGHT, helocoil job later and she's better than new. Sorry about the spelling y'all I'm a redneck.

Hey, I to have a 06 tc sig. I was thinking of doing trickflow kit 44cc and some 410 gears, some longtube headers, and a tune 93 octane tune. How much hp and tq do you think I'd make. Also, how much power does a trickflow kit add by its self. And is it worth the hefty price tag.

I have always loved the previous style Towncar, but the last Towncar that I fell in love with was a 1998 Towncar. Yeah, 4.6 2 valve, but they aren't really the garbage engines that everyone claims them to be. The one that I drove was black on black like this one with limo tint all the way around as it was in Florida, and it was SO comfortable and was somewhat surprising for such a heavy car. It didn't have a T56 in it, but it was comfortable and decently quick...not fast obviously. The fastest Lincoln I ever drove was a 1994 Lincoln Mk VIII with the 4.6 4 valve. I wish I could've driven Tony Angelo's when he turbocharged one with a fully forged Terminator engine.
