Please don't rip me a new one, but....
So I have this 408cui/425hp engine I built earlier this spring in hopes of finding anything rear wheel drive Mopar to stick it in. Problem is anything Mopar is stupid crazy expensive, even if it is door handle deep in dirt!
I have a chance to buy a super clean, low mile 81 Lincoln Mark 6 from the original owner. I've done research till my eyes bled and couldn't find a single person that has transplanted a small block Mopar in a Ford/Lincoln product.
Can anyone here tell me if it has been done and if so, what I will need for fabrication and parts?
Thank You, Ashton Blackwell

Mopars are falling out of the sky (DURING CERTAIN times of year) in Texas
I have seen very nice project 1967 Cuda fastbacks and darts for $2500-$7000, 68,69 charger projects you could drive for $15,000; $18,000
if you want a deal, consider looking outside your backyard, and paying for shipping or driving to the hidden treasure
as for timing, opportunities are beginning to cool off as summer closes
as for motor mounts, cross reference 351 windsor & cleveland installs into the lincoln, it has been done, maybe documented on a forum like ours, perhaps comparing motor mounts & measuring 351 windsor vice LA block
