Post a picture. I am doubting the COP since they didn't come in until 1999 and I highly doubt that he went through the trouble of replacing the wiring harness to make it work. If it did come from a 98, it's just a 4.6L NPI motor, just like what came out of the crown vic to begin with.

my mistake crown vic is 98 engine 99 it does have cops i just changed plugs no plug wires just a two wire plug in to each coil on top of each plug its single overhead cams oil fill on the driver side i seen the mustang he pulled it out of no front clip and i was'nt buying it at the time so i did'nt really care i don't think its performance improved i would like to be sure of the year and why the cops.

on another forum they said the pi version had the oil fill on the passenger side and that the first intake runner comes from the driver side my oil fill is on driver side and the front intake runner comes from the passenger side this but yet it has the cops. this is why i can't figure out what year it is.

It sounds like it's just an NPI engine to me, but why they would switch to COP is beyond me.
