Reply to "Cop car engine"

Well being in Law Enforcement,I can't really say much about The Crown Vic motors,most any type of Mustangs,Vetts,Camaros,etc etc etc can out run the Crown Vic.Have driven the Crown Vic for many years,You would probably have to find a way to put a chip or tune the computer to get more output from the motor and possibly go with a different mass air unit.

To me you would be better getting a engine out of a Ford 5.7L out of a Lightning Pickup.The horsepower is more than what they have in a Police Package. I know the Pantera and Crown Vic have a considerable weight difference but I don't think it would be a good platform,I would go with a mustang gt 2005 motor atleast I have driven one of them and can get more mods out of the 3valve motors.

But that is just my opinion.The engines have a rev limiter in the computer that shuts them down about 124-130 mph,and most have like a highway gear in the rear.I personally own a 93 Lincoln Mark VIII 4.6 32v which will out run my own Police Vehicle.
