- Lincoln Mark V 6,6L 1979 (carburetor) acceleration and top speed. Really it is not top speed, it is maximum speed by speedometer.

10 seconds is a very good time for an emissions laden car that weighs 4600 pounds
Yes, it is great result. But the car is like new. The original milage is less than 30.000 miles.
i timed mine 0 to 60mph it took 13 seconds mine as the 400 motor but 128000 miles
My 400ci '79 Town Car with 72000 miles also needs 13 sec. That Mark really is fast...
Really good video, high quality, no music or talking, so I can hear the engine as well.
Thank You!
Thank You!
You Welcome!
Hi I'm from Germany. Congratulation to this flawless beauty. In 1974 my father bought a Ford LTD with the same 460 cui powertrain. It was the most comfy, quiet and reliable car my family ever had!🎉
👍👍👍 🙂
I had a 79 continental with a 460 and all i have to say after watching this is
Oh man there goes 20bux in gas and I miss my lincoln a lot
👍👍👍 🙂
What the heck that must look like coming down the road in what looks like somewhere in the UK.
It's Cyprus ))
i am saving one of these i hope shes a runner
👌 👍
Is this in republic of Cyprus? In Larnica, around the time this car was made, they had these curved mirrors which were excellent for blind spot intersections.
Yes, Cyprus - highway near Paphos airport. But mirrors really not so good )))
Thank you, I knew it looked familiar from some old photos I had looked through (my aunt stayed in Cyprus for university in the mid 1970's). I would love to travel there at some point.
That car runs like a 460
Really it is 402 ))
KOOL NAT BAD ..
Not bad )) Really...
I wish mine went like this,cant be stock
This one is stock...
@@redline222 faster than mine!

6 POINT 6 not 6 cOmMa 6
🙂 There is no difference from the mathimatic point of view: 6,6 is the same 6.6
I'm impressed how quick it is for the weight and how quiet it is with accelerating... nice!
Yes very quiet! It' amazing!
166 hp. Doesn’t seem like much power but there was plenty of torque to move that big heavy car.
It's drives very nice... Better than many modern cars ))
Can agree some older cars do drive nicer my 97 legacy drove wayyyyy better than my 2017 chevy sonic
I get so sick of guys saying how slow these cars were. At the time they did just fine. All cars were sluggish in the late 70s! The Mark's did the job they were meant to do, and they did it in silence.
Of course it is not very slow car. We have to understand it is not made in 2022... ))
And today cars drive like a rock
The massive 400 and 460 cubic inch engines used in the Mark V were ridiculously low in horsepower. The 460V only had 208 HP, for instance. But they could accelerate like this because they had huge torque.
460 unfortunately was not mount on this car in 1979... Only 400...
@@redline222 Correct, '78 was the last year for the 460 V8 in the Mark V.
@@googleusergp I had heard through the grapevine that it was possible to still special order a 460 in the '79 Lincolns. I know they were never offered as an option after '78. Remember the 460 had just dropped in the big Fords and Mercurys as well as Lincolns, so it is a possibility there may have been a few ordered by people
@@1983jblack No official record of that. If so, they would be very late 1978s. They didn't meet 1979 emission standards more than likely and that's why they were dropped. They surely wouldn't have met 1980 standards.
The 400 is basically a tall deck 351 Cleveland. Up the compression, give it some good quench chamber heads and a 4 barrel carb and they are beast, especially when you compare the size to a 460.
It’s funny how Instead of a tachometer they put a clock there, lol!
That dashboard looks like comparable to a modern rolls-Royce, because of that quality!
Really I like tachometer... But this car equipped with automatic 3-gears transmission... Tachometer is not very important here...
Dmitry Ivanov
Well nice of lincoln to put a clock there anyway. It’s easy to hear when it is close to redline because you hear the rev go high then down. Good point.
R Berg
Yeah that’s probably why they did that, because the type of driver that would have bought these wouldn’t really care.
@@42luke93 super cheap quality really, also notice that everything (except for the wheels) is rectangular or square
:/
@@jpcodnia9133 Dude, back then that was a sign of modern, high-quality class. From the late 70's to the 80's if a car wasn't built out of squares and rectangles it was considered old fashioned
Look at the quality of the interior! Compare that to many of today's cars. They took the time to build something of quality. Beautiful car!
The interior is really quality... Remember it is more than 40 years old and looks like new... 👍
I think you’re confusing quality with style. Modern interiors are built with better quality materials and fit/finish, closer gap tolerances and more solid to prevent noises.But this Lincoln’s interior is stylish, arguably more than today’s cars.
@@brianhechinger6726 Have a look 🙂: in 1979 they used natural wood, natural leather and now all materials looks like New. But on the modern cars they use fake leather, fake wood... And after 5 years seats look terrible. Roof - terrible... Wood - terrible. So, I mean not only style, I mean quality. Sorry for my English... And if You drive Lincoln You will see it is less noisy than many New cars, OK, excepting cars like New Mercedes S-class 🙂
It’s a lovely car for sure and my parents had a 78 DJE with a 460 4V and dad a 79 Bill Blass 400 2V. The 79 pulled it’s weight but wasn’t really a fast car. But the 78 could do 0-60 when tuned right in about 8.5 sec which for late 70s to early 80s is quick. Remember back then many cars even V8s took 11-15 sec to get to 60 mph!!
FYI The “wood “ in ALL Mark Vs is definitely plastic NOT REAL! I’m not sure how it could be taken as real wood??? I still own a 70 Mark lll and Thst most definitely has real wood on the doors and dash.
@@redline222 is it plastic? Would’ve fooled me. Looks better than the equivalent in modern cars. Look at a Chrysler or Mercedes from 2004. I mean it’s obviously plastic. Like from a distance you can tell. So ugly.
And there goes about 6 gallons of gas, ha ha! I have a 1979 Town Car with the 400 and it always surprises people when I fly past them at traffic lights. The car might look slow, but it's got some power!
Yes! That's truth! 👍
For QUALITY of materials and the way it’s assembled the 1969-71 Continental Mark lll is superior to any American car made during that time period!
👍👍👍
Exactly!
I always liked the 400, it was such a smooth, quiet engine. They didn't have a lot of horsepower but they made a TON of low end torque. 😎
Yes! 1000% 🤝
Wish they still make these cars now. This is a real luxury car
Sure! 👍👍👍
YOU NEED TO CHOU THE GAS GAECH TO . G😂TO BE FAEAR..🤗👍👍👍⭐🐎⭐🐎⭐⭐⭐⭐🐎🐎⭐⭐
🙂🙂😆
That's impressive!
Thank You 🙂
I had a 73 Chrysler Newport w 400 2 barrel and that car would go 0 to 60 under 8.5 seconds that is incredible for a car that is 19 feet long with a 2 barrel carb and even a slight hesitation on the take off
Yes! I know this Chrysler - GRATE CAR!
Are you sure that was not 100mph?
I checked by GPS. Top speed is above 170 km/h, so it is more than 100mph...
@@redline222
Oh wow cool! Love it how instead of a tachometer there is a clock 🕰 !
So classy!
@@42luke93 👍😉👍
very nice !! ,, i'm not familiar with this car ,,i guess its american ,, we don't see it much in our country ,, where did you filmed this video ??
Cyprus... I live in Cyprus and the car is from USA, Denver... Which country do You live? Here in Cyprus american cars are also very rarely...
Oww Cyprus is a very nice country,, i'm from morocco ,,it's an north african country ,, spain is 14 kilométers away from us ,, so 90% of cars in our country are european ,, and german cars are the most popular :)
I have never been in Morocco... But I am sure it is nice country ))
Thank you brother ,, may Allah bless you :)
You too! ))
Wow -thats a mover! -twice as fast as the MK111 i had.
Stock car... 🙂
That was super fast for a 400. Can't be stock
No my friend! )) It is really full stock!
Mr Anderson oh that was stock alright I have one did the same thing I was surprised too considering the horsepower is only 159 to 160 you put dual exhaust Accord catalytic converters you're probably get about 170 horsepower
Agreed. Listen to the engine. Definitely a few things were done, the surge in speed is not like that of a stock Mark V. Sure they had a lot of torque, but no way they could haul ass like that
Is the speedometer in kph? That would explain how that needle moved faster than it should've in mph
This car sounds like fuel injected and not stock. Sorry dont make stories. Owner of mark iv here. The stock doesnt pick that fast like a 2000 car.
Given the age of this car, how hard is it to get parts and service for it?
All parts You can easely find on Ebay, there is no problem with parts 🙂
I doubt this car is stock. That's way quicker than a stock 400 would be with all the smog equipment
Belive me, it's in stock 🙂 I have bought it with only about 20k miles and didn't do something...
@@redline222 alright well it runs good
@@bigggmustang73 Thank You! 🙂👍
Very impressive for such a heavy cat 👍
Such heavy and such big... Aerodynamics? What is this? )))
im saving a 79 Lincoln continental with the factory big block and i want to put a ton of performance mods on it
Why not...? 👍
The mighty 400 and its gobs of low end torque!
Yes.. 👍
for folks saying the 6.6 mark v was a pooch that looked fairly quick to me, stock?
Yes, it is stock. Unfortunately i didn't find the information about normal acceleration from factoty.
6.6L...😢😢😢
6,6 - 👍🙂
This sounds like the 2011 town car but more deep pitched, it must of been a different transmission because the engine sounds similar, but what do I know?
Completely different generations for both engine and transmission in a 2011 and 1979. Lincoln made their cars pretty quiet no matter what was in them from the 1950s-90s
The transmission is only 3-gears )) But automatic...
Maybe the emission equipment has been deleted from the engine. Europe in 1979 had no emission regs. No catalytic converter and from sound of it a dual exhaust fitted.
The car is from USA, not from Europ. It is carburated engine, there is no emission systems in stock...
The dashboard looks like my grandma room. This square clocks xd and stuff
It was build the same time with Your grandma's room ))
That's really fast 😳
Yes, not bad ))
Sometimes I couldn’t understand why speedometers on cars in the late 1970s went only up to 80-85 mph. I know cars then didn’t have high horsepower like the late 60s, but I know they’re capable of going at least 100 mph!
In September of 1979, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) passed a bill which stated that all car, pickup truck and motorcycle speedometers were to display a maximum speed of 85 miles-per-hour. This U.S. federal regulation also required speedometers to have a special emphasis on the number 55 (the national speed limit at the time).
Yes, it was law... 🤪🤪🤪
That needle was ready to break off and keep going!
🙂👍
Its all about gearing and torque convertor stall.
🙂
That's damn good is that two-barrel 402 Cleveland
And the critics say it was a dinky engine I think there were wrong just because it's on paper does not mean it performs that way yours performed perfectly and mine performs exactly the same I added the iridium spark plugs and it made a big difference I added the dual exhaust and made another big difference I put new hoses all and that made a big difference and put the best spark plug wires and that made a big difference I use mobile one gas and that made even a bigger difference wow I hope you enjoy your Lincoln Mark 5 for many years.
I like this type of engine... Great V8!
Nice
Thank You ))
Smooooooth and nice acceleration
Yes! Thank You!
можете сказать, нормально тянет такой двигатель эту тяжелую машину,и еще интересно расход, просто взять тоже хочу
Тянет отлично, никакого дискомфорта, фору даст любой современной малолитражке. Не рулится, едет как корабль. Расход - приличный. Больше 30 это точно.
@@redline222 спасибо,но о ужас,расход, интересно,какой расход у 7.5 209л.с
@@ЛастДей-ы8э Там не такая большая разница уже - ну около 40. На этом если нажимать - тоже будет 40+...

Wow I was hoping way way slower
It's enough fast car )))
A Mk V is able to reach 120+ mph
Just like the infiniti g20
Easy! ))
Except for the wheels... Everything else made rectangular or square
Yes! 👍 👍 👍
