Default Streetfighter installed!

Damn this thing is way better than the factory Lincoln 2200rpm converter. Thanks for the help, Ive asked a few questions to some guys on here and everything went in without any snags, minus a broken exhaust manifold stud but oh well. Gonna try and post the before and after videos, if not Ill just link them.

the Lincoln LS, the new Thunderbird (now defunct) and the S197 Mustang right ? All share the same platform architecture ?

Man if they'd have made the Lincoln LS with the V8 and a manual trans,,,,,I was pretty close a couple times to buying a LS with the V6 and sport package with the manual,,, very close.

The LS and new Thunderbird are both discontinued, but yes the S197 was adapted from the DEW98 platform, they were going to use alot from it but it got to expensive, IRS ect... Thanks for the compliments! I was gonna buy a Mustang but was expecting a child so had to get the 4 door, and to think Im divorced now
