I stumbled upon this gem at the Autorama in Cleveland this weekend. This is a 1998 Lincoln MarkVIII LSC. I got to talk to the owner about the car a little bit. It has a stroked to 5.0L 4V engine with forged crank, pistons, and from what I understand, everything has been upgraded. Oh yea and a nice big blower. Procharger I believe. It has a Co2 tank to spray co2 over the intercooler to reduce the air charge temperature. Also it has a custom hood, and front bumper- terminator style to accommodate the nice big intercooler. Also it has full coil-over suspension. There is a lot I am forgetting/ didn't see. It was at the Big Three Racing booth and most of the work was done by them. They are dyno tuning the car very soon, and the owner is hopeful for 600+ HP.I absolutely LOVE this car, I could barely walk away from it. The owner was very nice, and actually is a former 2003 Marauder owner!

LOVE...THE...FRONT...END. Test drove one of these new. Was thinking of trading my Mark VII in on it. Even stock they were pretty fast. My Uncle had a '98 after having a 96 Vette and an LS after the Mark. Said it was the best car he had ever owned. Had a chance to buy it after the lease but couldn't give up my VII...

Such a slick car. I would love to own a black one like this

Seen a few Mark8's online with the front terminator bumper.

The owner told me that his was the first prototype for that bumper. He said once his was done, the guy who made it started making and selling others

I have had 2 of them, a deep emerald green and a black one.
I miss them both. Great car.
Look for posts by mlschulz he has a very nice, highly modded Mark
Boze custom wheels s/c'd 5.4, terminator bumper.
He posts here from time to time and is the man who introduced me the the SSHS events when I had my Black Mark.

Love that bumper

I keep watching for a clean '97/98 Mark VIII LSC to be available locally. But not white or pearl.

A mid 90's TBird with the Mark motor would have been an interesting car.
