Or check out my wheel well
www.wheelwell....
Follow my build.
Car is fully setup for autocross/track use.
Manual swapped using a Tremec 3650 from a Mustang.
Exhaust is catless with x pipe and borla XR1 race mufflers
the amount of times ive replayed this video to hear that sound... what an amazing conversion
Im still coming back for my weekly viewing. I replay this video at least 10 times and still smile each time.
Same
I'm so glad I grew up in Australia with plenty of V8 RWD manual sedans
They should of designed a LHD version of the Falcon alongside the RHD and made it the Ford global full size sedan to replace the Crown Vics... as well as keep them going here.
@@timhinchcliffe5372
The US labor unions said no.
@@brettmitchell1777 heh, unions. What I'm trying to say though is that they would be produced in the US too. The Ford Factory in Australia probably wouldn't be able to produce enough.
@@timhinchcliffe5372
The US unions blocked any Australian Ford imports.
The FG XR cars would have sold a million units.
But yeah they could have built them in the US.
Expect all holdens are shit and for broke asses, specially crappy holden ss's 🤣🤣
The world needs more of these
Its so rare to see clips like this on YT, usually its some dickhead blogger doing some grift and filler crap for 5 to 10 mins before the actual content we wanted to see..
I agree
That sounds good what engine is it
@@peteragersea377 Most likely the 4.6 v8, the v8 that came stock with these crown vics.
@@peteragersea377 yeah it's more than likely a 4.6 2v basically the same as the mustang and f150 just tuned differently and some changes to the intake and throttle body
I've driven a stock automatic crown vic before. It feels really well balanced for an old vehicle. I'd love to drive a manual that's been modified like this!
Try a stock auto Mustang from the early 90s. What a dog.
@@scottskinner577 The 1990 mustang gt does look like it has some get up. I doubt I'd ever get the chance though lol
@@janitorial-engineer2286 the autos just felt sluggish to me. I owned 2 manuals. That was the ticket
@@scottskinner577 it really took awhile for autos to catch up and surpass manuals. The only real advantage in a manual these days is driving feel and fun (which is why I opted for one in my ram pickup vs the auto). I refuse to buy an auto without paddles, it's the closest you can get to feeling connected to the car.
In regard to older cars, there are very few that feel better than their respective manual version.
@@BradChadley that was my whole point. In the past I always wanted manual and still would for those vehicles. For newer cars, I don't see the point unless it's for sport. I've been a trucker for 20 years and I'm just over shifting daily lol Only people I picture wanting to shift daily are either the working man pulling big trailers, or the young bucks in the Mustangs, Camaros and Challengers trying to pick up high school girls.
Hell yea baby, this is the first time in my life I've seen a shift stick Crown Victoria! Got V8,RWD,shift stick and boom, perfect recipe for drifting
You need to check out Cleetus McFarland and his crown vic Neighbor.
plus the long wheelbase makes it easier to control
The crown victoria’s original gearbox held it back so much
That motor sounds so damn good. What setup you running?
Stock motor. Borla xr1 mufflers with an x pipe and no cats
@@hooncop I mean what tranny? What clutch? Pedal assembly?
@@raneman7415 the 5 speed from the mustang could work with this. Or you could use the 6 speed from the cobra. That's all I really know when it comes to these.
@@raneman7415 you can run a t5, t45, tr3650, or t56 in tandem with the 2 valve. ADTR sells swap kits for all those trannies listed, well worth the price.
@@LDMco tbh a T56 would probably hold up better to a 4.6.
Really should have been a factory option.
We're they all column shift autos then? That's a shame!
So much better as manuals!
@@skylined5534 Police spec cars are and i believe the early civ ones were also, but they were all 4spd auto's
The only Crown vics with manual from factory were the Mexican base models from the 70`s because gas shortage those the f100 the mustangs and fairmonts came with the inline 6 and 4 speeds on the floor, but maybe the colombians or chileans had those too.
The Crown Vic is a derivative of the old LTD which was in production from 1965-92. In 1982 Ford added the “Crown Victoria” nomenclature to the Panther LTD because they’d come out with a Fox-body based smaller sedan they also called the LTD. So to differentiate them the large one was formally named the “LTD Crown Victoria” and the smaller one just “LTD”. They’d quite making the Fox-based LTD by 1989 and when they redesigned the Panther sedan they dropped the LTD name all together.
"Best get to steppin', 'cause Johnny Law's a-coming!"
That V8 is something else, and I feel sad for every cop that didn't get to roll in one of these
I love the simple interior. No overexaggerated digital speedometer and no infotainment with a touchscreen.
How thoughtful of ford to leave that hump in the floor for the swap 😀
What are you talking about? It's a RWD car. It has the hump there because a trans has to go there. It has nothing to do with Ford "leaving the hump there" lol
@@twizz420 no shi....
Damn that 4.6 with a manual sounds so damn good when shifting
There is a man in my town here in Maine, that did this with a 96 Merc Grand Marquis. Looks stock, with a killer Mustang driveline..
I'm from Maine Near Bates College and I have a 2010 CVPI and I'm itching to do this swap
I'm from maine and my family tree is a telephone pole.
@@1958johndeere620 I've never been to Maine but I approve this message.
*I'm from Maine and I have a 1983 motorcycle with 12,131 miles. I drive it every nice day there is.*
Hi sir. Just wanted to tell you that you car is really awesome and I can't believe you put the effort to make a complete list of all the parts on your website with links. That's pretty incredible! Big thumbs up to you. 🏁🏎️🏁
Holy shit! I've never heard a 4.6 modular sound that good before! That's beautiful
Sweet Jesus, a manual Crown Victoria, and that V8 growl with that 5-speed sounds heavenly
This sound is just heavenly. I thought they only exist in video games like Burnout Paradise. This is the real deal.
My catless 4.6 mustang doesn’t even sound that loud, that thing fuckssss, my buddy manual swapped his 07 PI crown Vic. Most fun car i have ever been in
i always thought the CV was just a boring Ford but its engine is a hell of a beast. Im from Germany btw so seeing these in real life is very rare and cool
I wanted this in a roadmaster. Good job
Regular car reviews did a review of one with a manual from a Camaro
I have no idea why any one would do this.
I am also very happy that you did this.
I really wish I had the $ 1,000 asking price for a 2007 Interceptor a friend of mine was selling a few years back...it had nicely stitched 2x2 bucket seats, flood light, and minor damage to the front bumper from where he had hit a fire hydrant during the winter....a manual swap on it would have been sick.
Get one of the gulf crown vics
I’ve always been tempted to take a bite out of my dashboard, I’m glad somebody finally did
My uncle had a 2004 Mercury Marauder back in the day, that thing was fast for the time, and for a big heavy boat of a sedan. lol He named it charlie horse
I just got my 5.0 and manual 5 speed trans I can't wait for it to be on the road
Man I want one of these in Australia 🤤
You kind of do. It's called the falcon
Never thought this legend could be even better
It’s actually a pretty easy affair to get a T-45 setup in a Vic or a Grand Marq. I’m fairly surprised we don’t see it more often.
Ford or SVT already did it
@@scottskinner577 Already did what? Because neither Ford nor Ford’s SVT arm never produced a factory manual transmission panther platform.
@@kennethpowers8995 produced is one thing. "Made" is another. I'll find the article/video
It was a Roush project. Still can't find the original footage but this is the car
th-cam.com/video/GvA8J1nPE3w/w-d-xo.html
@Scott Skinner
Yeah but this platform never left the factory with a manual which is a damned shame.
A five speed crown vic PI? Oh I'm in love I'm in Love I'm in Love!!!
I own a 2003 Grand Marquis with now 89k miles. Was 75k when I bought it for $1500 a couple years ago. Damn I want this setup.
Nice work. Ford, or SVT or whoever, actually did this before. Not sure if it was produced, but I remember the piece about it. And the *Marauder*
Awesome sound!
The ultimate beaters to work on and have fun in!
Some crown Victoria from Mexico were built standard Ford had a plant in Mexico and some of them were shipped into the United States as standard I know because I have one and it says built in Mexico in Mexico
What year?
I would have to disagree with ya?Whats the first digit of ur vin?
I don’t think there were ever ANY manual panther platform vehicles, I’ve owned 4 of these over the years, been on the forums more times than I can count. Never made a factory panther
@@crigger I've owned a crap load of them & they were all built in canada hence the #2 starting the vin
@@coletrickle113 I never even thought of that. Some of the earlier crown vics were built in the USA but crown vics as we know them (92-2011) were all canadian cars.
Increíble, un Crown Victoria Interceptor manual, un sueño hecho realidad, lástima que en Europa este coche no se pueda comprar, saludos desde España!
I'd have so much fun driving this around all the time lol. Sounds great
More proof Ford could have joined the sport sedan market.
I keep coming back to this!
Man, I used to have a '92 Grand Marquis with this setup. It got T-boned back in '08. It was fun while it lasted though.
Such perfect shifts you almost wouldn’t be able to tell it’s manual without seeing it 👌🏻
That manual swap is awesome I want one now
I've driven a 5 speed manual crown vic. Transmission was from a mustang.
Oh HELL YEAH! The car that should've been.
God that looks fun, about to go through the process of swapping mine hope it's not too difficult never done anything like this before
In my hometown in FL they had fox body cop cars when I was little.
"Hey, how far you goin, man? Oh right here will be fine."
Bring manual back to popularity
This makes me want me vic back lol. Though the marquis I have is pretty much the same thing. Just not a old cop car 😩
On an ex-cop model. Impressive.
I have spent my entire life so far with Chevy's I started out with my first car ( that was on the road ) 70 chevelle done up 350 4speed 3:50 gears awsome car. Then many cars later had at least15 different chevelles novas trucks fast forward to 95 9c1 that I daily drive now. Love that car it's a PC of crap but hauls ass. Recently bought a 03 crown vic loaded with the hpp package for my wife. I got to say that it is a really nice car. Not as fast but goes good handling and suspension upgraded brakes are impressive but probably the interior is the biggest difference the Ford is way nicer
Nice, sounds great.
My old man @ 65 bought a 03 Marauder with a dealer installed performance package. It was pretty quick, nothing insane.
🦍
For real💪🏽
I am in a better mood now. Thank you very much!!
😆 the double DIN slot cassette deck!
Wow. My explorer would not keep up with this thing
My God this thing sound awesome, pure engine sound
I don't know how fast or quick a Crown Vic with a 5spd would be,
But I don't care,I bet it's alot of fun!
Ahhh this is awesome! They should have made this car manual from the factory!
Damn, I wanna 5-speed Crown Vic now. Learned to drive on an '85 automatic.
Dam that thing freaking rocks!
Hell yeah, you made it even slower, dope!!! LOL jk.
Bro the stock transmissions in these things are slow af. They all came with a slow shifting auto 4 speed with a not so great gear ratio and a stupid ass column shifter. Most Trans swaps would be an upgrade lol
@@StinkHatch5318 I have a 2002 grand Marquis. I know this lol. Still shifts faster than this. I.e. he's slower lol.
@@michaelmunson6809 nope
it definitely shifts faster but alright
@@danielfreakingsean9150 no human is shifting faster than an automatic, you're nutty my dood.
I used to hate that sound, haha that sound used to be accompanied by red and blues
Doing that would cost me my food for the next three days but it's worth it
We do that every day in Europe, in US that is a miracle
Just like the old Cobra Vic's
Should’ve been standard from the factory, so much potential
a Manual Crown Vic !! this is new
Still pretty slow but I'm sure it is light years more fun now. Doing the Lord's work.
5000 rpm, 50 mph. lol
Hell Yeah and the Hell Yeah boys!
I love the fact u let the stereo intact, u let the original cassette stereo? 98-03 model, right?
GTA, is a crime. But when its a crown vic the sky is the limit....
Sounds nice gents. But it's a Ford.👍🤘
TankQ for letting me comment on this topic.
DRC. ;)
Dundersztyc Cię znajdzie 🔜🔝🥳
Holy shit. I ended up with a mustang gt manual trans and figured it was trash because it was for a mod motor
This... Never occurred to me
Awesome car dude! I much prefer a standard than auto any day! Sounds great too!
0-48 in 19 seconds. Not bad.
Thats SICK!!!
Well I never, the only thing my old lead sled needed was a manual transmission to take away the slack. Also a supercharger, a fucking big one.
Sounds mint dude
Still runs nice.. That's a long 1st gear in it too.
Seems like someone smashed their head and now half the dashboard is missing :D
Hell yeah love it.
I recognize that on ramp that’s kimball in Ventura lol
it's a beautiful thing
basically it's 4 door Mustang GT!
Sounds sick
look at that boat chugg
I always thought a 5.0 with a 5 speed thunder chicken from the 90s would be cool with the independent rear suspension
Man that's badass
my man this is cool as heck
what transmission did you use?
Sweet Ride!!!! Have u run this in the quarter mile?
nice sound!
Real mustang
Hell yeah brother
LOVE THIS THING I WANT IT LOL
Ive got an XR8 Falcon Ute 6 speed man it has the 5.4 quad cam BOSS motor
sounds just like my dads old GT
Always wanted to do one of these nice job
Manual transmission was a factory option? Or was a reconversion?
