what about the wiring at the computer? do you splice in or just splice from the computer wire to the gauge?
Very nice
Your videos are always helpful!
I’ve owned 2 of these, the fuseable links made them both electronic nightmares.
I just put a stealth 340 in my 1995 tonight. Super quiet. Hopefully it holds pressure with my 331 vortech combo with heads cam intake. Hoping to make 500whp~ also ran a 10awg from battery
Nope you mounted the fan completely wrong you were supposed to custom make a fan shroud and mounted the electric fan to the shroud then you mounted the shroud to the radiator
In a lot of cases a shroud setup will work better, however there isn't always room for an effective shroud so I opted for a very high flow fan in this case to compensate. It's also fair to point out that the factory did not use a shroud in this application either.
@tecmotiondyno there guy on TH-cam has already done it and was able to fit one in
Working on a 84 fox with a T5 and 302 from a 90 that i put into it, what harness would i need?
You might get it to run with almost any Mustang 5.0 engine harness, but you will have issues with the ancillary connections no matter what - there are no 5.0 EFI harnesses which will connect right up to your dash harness. I have a friend with a similar 4-eye that is running but he didn’t do the work and I have not looked closely at what done. Obviously it CAN be done though.
They made a great car with the right engine. They used the windsor 302 V8. They would have been better off had the come with regular coil springs instead of air bags, but with time it is worthwhile to have that dealt with. One major draw back I saw, was the stupid electronic brake booster instead of a vacuum booster. But the thickness of the sheet metal on them and reliable engines, they were in a way you got a great car if you bought the 84 on up to the 92 year model. My most preferred, based on the tires/wheels and throttle body fuel injection with regular air cleaner are the 84-86 models
Those features like air suspension and ABS are great when they work, and a pain in the butt when they don’t. That Teves ABS system is more or less unheard of today too, so finding parts or someone to work on it is no fun, but you can convert to a vacuum booster to keep it on the road. In spite of these things, I do like cruising in mine!
I had a 1987 LSC I believe it had a V8 engine in it. I leased it new. At the time this was an awesome driving car. I loved that car.
I was about to reply to your comment before you edited it. In 1984 and 1985 Lincoln offered the BMW Diesel in the Mark VII, but by 1986 they were all Ford 5.0 V8's.
@@tecmotiondyno I didnot have a diesel so I corrected it.👌
I bought a 1990 LSC in red from a disabled guy for 2000 about a month ago It was sitting for 7 years and has a registration sticker from 2012. It didn’t run without starting fluid, the front seats are ripped and are faded by the sun (not awful but in need of a reupholster.) it needs a new fuel pump, a tuneup, all 4 tires, a thermostat, a new brake line and new calipers, rotors and pads, A really good cleaning, and it has 3 or 4 rust spots about 1 inch by 0.5 inch (repairable-no holes.) plus some faded paint and some clearcoat issues, but overall ok. Did I get a good deal on this car? Btw that’s a very clean Mkvii! Will definitely be coming back for more videos. Funny enough, my other choice was a 90-93 GT hatchback
The rear brake calipers are basically unobtainium. The rest of that stuff can be bought from a supplier like Rockauto. There are apparently some options for switching up the rear brakes with parts from a Taurus, and of course anything is possible when you get into the aftermarket and customization. I'd say you paid more or less parts car price for it though, so I don't think you got a bad deal.
I can't believe how old these cars are now😢
Me either! Thanks for watching.
Why would I not have shim between pinion and bearing? I have noise. Don't think it was set correctly.
If you are saying that you took apart an 8.8 and there was no pinion shim installed, then it was almost certainly assembled wrong. It would be pure speculation as to why this mistake was made, but I have seen situations where someone used the newer pinion bearings and didn’t replace the races which were for the older style bearing, and since they don’t mesh properly it screws up the depth. I would say that your rear end will need a scratch setup including a careful measurement of the pinion depth which I did not cover in this video. The “reuse the old pinion shim” technique only works if you started with a correctly assembled gear set. There is a special pinion depth checking tool for the ford gear sets which is available.
I bought a 1986 Mk VII in 1988. My Mom's Honda Prelude was getting ugly, though it ran great! Anyway, I gave her the Mk. Years later, sadly, it's mine again. The car now has 136,000 + plus miles. I drove it yesterday. I spent a bit of money on the air ride, as you mentioned, that's something to keep in mind. I replaced the power antenna, multiple fog light bulbs, and a couple of engine sensors over the years. This is a fantastic auto. The features for the day are amazing! It's running great! Thanks for your video. On the spot recommendations! I agree, I need a donor car!
I really enjoy mine though it has its moments of frustration for sure. I have a few technical videos on here specific to the Mark that might help you, and lots of Foxbody stuff, much of which crosses over. Thanks for watching!
Beautiful!! I love the sound of it too. Just has that purr. I worked at a Ford plant in Lansdale PA when these came out, and every so often, I got to take one out a number of times when needing a company car. I had bought my '84 Mustang GT brand new, so I know what you're talking about with the difference. I totally forgot the Mark VII was a Fox body. And yes, those air suspensions - great in theory, bad in practice. My parents had a Mark VIII that I remember by the mid 00's it's hugging the ground.
Great story! Thanks for sharing it. It sure feels a lot more contemporary than driving a Fox Mustang because of all the advanced features that are common today, but especially with a heads/cam/intake build like mine it has that raw 80’s Foxbody Mustang sound and feel. It’s a great nostalgia cruiser in my view!
Are you guys going to make more of the Ford TFI adapters soon? There is only one left in stock. God Bless Canada
Yes, I have a bunch of blanks but have been swamped with summer stuff. I am hoping to have a little time this week to finish the blanks I have. It’s a bit of a slow process because I actually bench install every one of them on a distributor and check them to be sure you are getting a quality part. I did get smoke gray vent pods back in stock a week or so ago finally! If you need more than one, message me on Facebook or Instagram (@tecmotiondyno) and I will finish some on an emergency basis.
@@tecmotiondyno thank you for the reply. I want an adapter very badly. I appreciate your quality control efforts and making sure they are perfect for sale. If I may ask, what is a vent pod?
@s2_eleven551 - I just finished boxing the second last finished one, and there is indeed one left which you could order. Additionally it looks like I have at least 10 blanks printed, and I am hoping to have time to get to them later this week because I know I am getting low. A vent pod is a part that allows you to install a gauge in an AC vent by replacing the original vent with a vent gauge pod. I make a line of them covering Mustang from 1987-2014 and 90-92 Mark VII. I also make a system that allows you to mount a Holley 3.5" touch screen anywhere you can put a 2 1/16" gauge, which pairs very nicely with the vent pods when you use a Terminator X in a Foxbody for example. Here are some videos on the subject: Vent Pods: th-cam.com/video/oLYdgQr4T2A/w-d-xo.htmlsi=Kpw6_9Z7wPEGLc9Y Holley Screen Mount: th-cam.com/video/65CF1vG0bPY/w-d-xo.htmlsi=EUW4XnM51xK7S3Dl
I just finished mine and wanted to say thank you for making this video! It was a great resource and extremely helpful to make sure I wasn't missing anything.
I hope your gear change works out how you hoped. A gear swap in a Foxbody is one of the best value for money upgrades that you can do.
But can you stuff a 460 in one?
Anything is possible - it’s about the same underhood space as a Foxbody and I have seen guys get a 460 in them.
Okay, these engines weren't all sequential fuel injection though, most were bank fire speed density fuel injection?
I would say that the better part of them were SEFI including all the Mustang engines, but you are right, some of them are bank fire. I am not 100% sure how this test works on a bank fire version, but it could use a spark cut.
@@tecmotiondyno FWIW in my understanding, the earlier versions of efi were speed density because maf sensor technology was in it's infancy. My '95, '94, '90 Fords use speed density but california (CARB) versions were for '95 used maf. I'm not sure exactly which engines or when Ford first introduced maf, but those were all sequential injection as far as I know and speed density (MAP only) were all bank fire injection. In the case of '95 maf, ignition wasn't DIS, as far as I know. Thus I'm pretty sure if the ignition is dis, this will also be sequential injection. Then we have all the different versions of ecm's, parts availability (discontinued parts?), on and on... ;)
Pretty well all of the speed density cars were SEFI - Mustang, T-Bird, Cougar, Mark VII, Crown Vic, Grand Marquis, etc. These will go back as early as 1986 in some cases. MAF was first introduced in the Mustang in California in 1988 and nationwide in 1989. The speed density trucks and vans were mostly bank-fire. MAF equipped trucks like some 93 E-Series vans were SEFI.
@@tecmotiondyno 1990 2.9 V6 Bronco II federal emissions? 1995 Bronco 5.8 Federal emissions? 1994 F250 460 Federal emissions? See electrical schematic, 8 injector channels or bank fire?
I don't have the 94 460 schematic or the 95 Bronco schematic handy. The 90 V6 Bronco is a MAP controlled vehicle and is batch fire. In most cases I think the MAF vehicles were SEFI and the cars were SEFI regardless of whether they were MAF or MAP, as I said.
Im currently building a late model (late 90’s) explorer 5.0 roller cam motor to put into my sons ‘67 mustang….the stock 289 is getting a little tired but last year we put efi on it and it made a night and day difference in how that tired 289 runs, my son is only 16 and probably isnt ready for the built motor yet so were just gonna run that 289 till the wheels fall off……now if i can only get that damn c4 to stop leaking…….that car fired right to life by the way!!!! awesome
Sounds like a great project. My first Mustang was actually a 67 fastback with a 289 and a top loader. There are three point seat belt retrofits out there - the car in this video got one actually. That’s probably the easiest and most effective thing you can do to improve safety for your son when he is driving it.
@@tecmotiondyno thank you, i will have to look into that…..i had a ‘65 fastback in highschool with a built 302 and top loader as well…..man i miss that car, if only i had stayed in school and went to class my father never would have took it from me and sold it!!!
DO YOU BUILD MOTORS FOR PEOPLE I MEAN DROP THE CAR OFF AND SAY WHAT I WANT AND PICK IT UP?
I sometimes do. The car in this video was a project for a customer.
Hi , i just found your channel and found your video to be very educational, do yo have any videos on sn95s? I know some people didn't like them but they are starting to reach that classic status age , would love to see a video about the ups and downs on sn95s especially for us newb car guys
Thanks for the idea. I work on quite a few of those cars still and have owned several so I will look into it. And I agree - for a while no one showed up with one, but they are starting to show up again because the guys they appeal to have reached a certain age where they are building their high school dream car.
Hi,I'm a Canadian and owned a 84 LSC bought it for the wife ,we both loved it .Was great car.Regret selling it .Thanks for your info.
They are a fun car but increasingly hard to keep on the road. I do enjoy mine though.
Hello. I have two problems recently on my Mark VII LSC 1986. If any one has tips that would be amazing. My ABS light turns on randomly and the pedal goes hard. I hear a little click right before the abs light is about to turn on. Anyone had this problem ? Second problem . I have a digital dashboard. The speed and fuel gauge was working and odometer was saying error . Recently the speedometer and fuel gauge turns on and off . How can I fix that ? Thanks a lot for your help in advance !!
You should probably ask these questions on the Lincoln Mark VII Club Facebook group. Your brake problem is likely either with the Teves unit itself or the accumulator ball.
Estimated means nothing put it on the track and see
I'm not a big fan of estimates myself, and I know what it takes to actually run a mid 9 second pass. It's a pretty incredible build, but an estimated track time is just a really just a guess, and usually an optimistic one.
Quit my job in 2002. Flew into San Francisco from Europe with my girlfriend. Bought a 1988 Mk 7 LSC and drove for 3 months all across the US. 10,000 miles. Pacific Highway, Yosemite, Death Valley, Las Vegas, Monument Valley, New Orleans, New York, Gettysburg, Cape Cod...a total bucket list of sights. Got married in the Little White Chapel drive thru. The Mk7 was a pleasure to drive. Will always have the best memories of that car.

Great work this has saved me a lot of stress working on getting my grandmothers 5.0 back to glory
I'm glad it helped!
That's crazy wow
It is a pretty crazy ride!
Just picked up a 90 notch back that was poorly swapped. Trying to get everything working right. what engine harness and body harness should it have to work right? I was told the motor was from a 95 mustang.
You will need a dash harness and engine harness that matches. Without looking at it, I would guess that it already has a 90 dash harness and you will have to get a 90 engine harness. 1990 is a unique setup though I personally saw a car the other day which is supposed to be a 1990 and had the late style dash connector, so there are some weird setups out there. Outside of this one questionable exception, every 1990 I have seen including my own late production 1990 coupe has the two engine to dash connectors and the airbag support. The 1995 harness is really different and probably not that easy to adapt to the 1990 dash harness. Good luck with it.

Joe respects you mathew, you can tell how in the manner in which he says your name. That to me is more awesome than the this story of the car 👍🏼 , it's as rare as this build.
I’ve known Joe a long time. I’ve done basically nothing on his project but it’s a really incredible build that I think deserves to be seen outside the Calgary area. This interview was very impromptu - I had a rare opportunity at a car show where they weren’t playing music and I figured I was going to get 60 seconds on the car for a short but it turned into a little more of a profile. Anyway, I’m glad you enjoyed it.
Badazz Love it! I bought a brand new, black 2003 Marauder in Dec '02 and started modding it immediately. Too slow (high 14s) stock. Got it down to 12.9s N/A then sold it. Never did put a S/C on it, but that's what those 4.6 Modulars need! Wish the 5.0 Coyote was around back then. I miss that Marauder! People would always stop and ask "What is that!?"
I’ve known a few guys with them - half the time at shows people would ask if it was a cop car! 😂
@@tecmotiondyno We used to call it the LEO effect. People would hit their brakes and slow down whenever they saw my Marauder coming by. Lots of them thought that I was driving an unmarked State Police cruiser....until they saw the polished 18" alloy rims and shiny exhaust pipes! 😁
China wall sounds racist ..lol
I don’t even think this is a regional term - it’s derived from the curving wall like shape of the block in this area which resembles the Great Wall of China.
Do you have a stock bottom end?
Yes, except for the cam with is a TFS stage 2
Congrats Joe
Great guy and great car!
Seems like it is way over built, perhaps that is a reason it took 2 years to get the tune right. Thanks for the video.
It’s an over the top car for sure, and not the kind of thing most people have seen. I really have nothing to do with the project but I know Joe and I get a kick out of his build. Hopefully you guys do too.

What’s the point of the fuse and where does it go in the wiring? How often will it blow? I’m worried the initial surge of amps when the fan comes on will keep blowing it.
Use a fuse that can handle the continuous draw of the fan. It can be anywhere in a relatively short power circuit like this but ideally it will be fairly close to the battery or power lug. The fuse won’t normally blow as a result of the startup amperage.

I'mmmmmm gonna take a guess and sayyyy... HEADACHE! Unless you're the Smithsonian or Jay Leno, don't bother. This era of auto-manufacturing was a mess, especially for domestics; it was all off-the-shelf innovation with a HUGE helping of marketing which resulted in owning something which was nothing like that glossy ad in the National Geographic. Most parts for these cars are god-awful rare, mainly because for nearly 20 years as metal-prices went up the scrap was worth more than the car, even if it was in decent condition. It's actually easier to find parts and machining for vehicles mid-60s and older, basically because many of those cars didn't start to dry-rot as soon as you drove them of the lot, and they weren't a cobbled-together piece of modernity. But hey, passion and common-sense are seldom bosum buddies; I work on old Atari 5200s and fix them up... more 80s crap. So, I dig it.
Subscribed! Can’t wait to dyno my 331 vortech build. Hoping for 500whp once it cools off here in AZ.
Thanks for watching.
Hi @tecmotiondyno. I plan on dropping the transmission, so I will only be lifting the engine with the bell housing attached. At what points do you have the load leveler attached to the engine?
You can attach it the same way I did here. If you don't want to pull the upper intake and you still have the factory lift points, you can use those, but the engine will twist as you adjust the load leveler. An example of installing an engine/transmission assembly with the factory lift points is here: th-cam.com/video/Y8w5WoQsM8c/w-d-xo.htmlsi=-VmhOvYcDsHPPwq5
@@tecmotiondyno Okay. She is stocked from the factory, so I will use the factory lift points. Are those stock headers on your engine? If so, I should be able to deinstall and install my engine like you did, right? Maybe a little easier since only the bell housing will be attached?
@@Mustang8846 yeah, I think both these videos depict stock header cars. You won’t have to remove the stock headers to get it in or out, but if you switch to aftermarket headers you will start to get into special procedures around the headers.
@@tecmotiondyno This is great news! She is stocked and will remain stocked. I will only make mods that are absolutely necessary. So far that is the R12 to R134a conversion and the Alternator upgrade.
