PI engine swap or a 4v engine swap then heads, cams and the rest of the goodies. You wont make any power with that 180rw NPI crap you have in your car now.

What is involved in a 4v swap, because a Lincoln Mark VIII engine has the 4v heads and the aluminum block and are relatively cheap to buy

Trickflow heads, CMS stage 2.5 cams, Trickflow intake manifold. You can get the package from CMS for 3250 and then do the install and buy yourself some longtubes and that will net you somewhere around 350rwhp or so.

The engine, a new intake and a few minor things. Easy swap.

I don't think stage 2.5 cams is enough cam for those heads. I've heard stage 4 is what you need.
