Brand new 4.6L Ford block. Still in crate.

[outlawgibbs]

i have 3 of them for sure, maybe a few more once I go thru all the crates. All are brand new and still in the crated except one I opened to take a look at.

4.6 Aluminum Ford block only

Part number is F60Z-6010-AB

Im not a Ford guy so I know nothing about what it will fit or what years they are for. I figure some of you guys might know or know someone who would be interested in them

$200 a piece

[Waver]

The blocks are discontinued. They are from the 1996 Lincoln Continental.....a version of the 4.6 4v

[outlawgibbs]

Thanks for the insight.

[Irish]

Dang it! If they were from a Mark viii, I'd be all over this! The Continental blocks are fwd specific from what I am told.

[Waver]

From what I have read, the fully assembled engines were just detuned so that they could be used in a FWD app. I will check to see if you can use it in a rwd app

[OxmanWI]

You can't use it for RWD. The bolt pattern on the back of the block will not match any RWD tranny. Sucks cause I was thinking the same thing...Teksid blocks?!

I knew there was something in the casting of the block that was different. I couldn't recall what it was though. I also thought the motor mount portions were different too..

[outlawgibbs]

So I'm guessing these things are light weight boat anchors

[Waver]

It could make a cool swap for a fwd car....perhaps like a Taurus or a contour or something.

Scrap prices?

[outlawgibbs]

$100 a piece to anyone willing to mess with one

[-stew-]

This is better than Storage Wars...

So acording to Wikipedia you guys are wrong

The 4-valve DOHC version of the Modular engine was introduced in the 1993 Lincoln Mark VIII as the 4.6 L Four-Cam V8. Lincoln marketed the engine under the name InTech after 1995.[5]

The 1993–1998 4-valve engines featured cylinder heads with two intake ports per cylinder (split-port) and variable runner length intake manifolds with either vacuum or electrically activated intake manifold runner controls (IMRC) depending on application. The engine was revised for 1999 with new cylinder heads featuring tumble-style intake ports (one intake port feeding two intake valves), new camshaft profiles, and fixed runner-length intake manifolds. These changes resulted in more power, torque and a broader power-band when compared to the earlier 4-valve engines.

All 4.6 L 4-valve engines featured aluminum engine blocks with 6-bolt main bearing caps, the only exception being the 2003–2004 SVT Cobra which had a 4-bolt main cast iron block. The 1999 and earlier engines featured an aluminum block cast in Italy by Fiat subsidiary Teksid S.p.A. Since 1996, all of the 4.6 L 4-valve engines manufactured for use in the SVT Cobra have been hand-built by SVT technicians at Ford's Romeo, Michigan plant.[6]

The 4-valve DOHC 4.6 L engine was on the Ward's 10 Best Engines list for 1996 and 1997.

Vehicles equipped with the 32-valve DOHC 4.6 L include the following:
1993–1998 Lincoln Mark VIII, 280 hp (209 kW) and 285 lb·ft (386 N·m)
1995–1998 Lincoln Continental, 260 hp (194 kW) and 265 lb·ft (359 N·m)
1996–1998 Ford Mustang SVT Cobra, 305 hp (227 kW) and 300 lb·ft (407 N·m)
1997–1999 Panoz AIV Roadster, 305 hp (227 kW) and 300 lb-ft (407 N-m)
1995–1998 Lincoln Mark VIII LSC, 290 hp (216 kW) and 295 lb·ft (400 N·m)
1997–1999 Marcos Mantis GT, 320 hp (239 kW) and 317 lb·ft (430 N·m)
1999–2002 Lincoln Continental, 275 hp (205 kW) and 275 lb·ft (373 N·m)

2003–2005 MG X-Power SV, 320 hp (239 kW) and 317 lb·ft (430 N·m)
2000–2008 Panoz Esperante, 320 hp (239 kW) and 320 lb·ft (434 N·m) [7]
2003 Ford Mustang Mach 1, 305 hp (227 kW) and 320 lb·ft (434 N·m)
2004 Ford Mustang Mach 1, 310 hp (231 kW) and 335 lb·ft (454 N·m) [8]

Power now came from the Modular 32v DOHC 4.6 V8 also used in the Lincoln Mark VIII, but slightly de-tuned for front wheel drive use.

Power now came from the Modular 32v DOHC 4.6 V8 also used in the Lincoln Mark VIII, but slightly de-tuned for front wheel drive use.

"Another version of the aluminum block that you may come across is the front wheel drive (FWD)
block. This block is modified for use in the FWD Lincoln Continental. Changes include a different
coolant flow, additional bosses for engine mounts, and a unique bellhousing bolt pattern. The FWD
bellhousing bolt pattern renders this block useless for rear wheel drive applications, as no
rear-drive transmission bolts up."

Post pics of the block, specifically the back where the bell-housing bolts up. That should answer any questions as to the nature of these blocks for those looking to use them in a RWD application.

I ran the part number here at work.....

[Irish]

I'll tell you this. If they are a Rwd block, I will be first in line to buy one!

[outlawgibbs]

For the record I've been told I may have a hand full of 302 blocks as well but I haven't dug deep enough to get the part number

[MurphysLaw88GT]

let me know if you have a new roller 302 block
