    Mark vii engine

    What would I need to do to make a 1993 Mark VIII engine work as marauder engine? I have a blown motor so I can remove stuff from the original engine.
    Thanks. ( engine has 115K on it)

    i think those are B head engines and the intake won't fit.

    You'd have to strip it down to a short block and transfer over your heads, timing cover, intake, oil pan + pickup tube.

    Unless you're getting a super good deal on this, it'd be easier to find a 03-05 aviator motor and just swap the intake, timing cover, oil pan + pickup tube and valve covers.

    I have the car on my driveway. I purchased it for $400 running after accident. I was going to fix it, but changed my mind.

    Little details such as knock sensor mounting bosses may need adapters, but for the most part it should be straight forward. I believe the MkVIII had a Teksid block. I would probably put in a good oil pump with billet gears if I had it down that far. You may need to change some of the bolts on main caps so you have studs for oil pickup mounting. The ones on your old engine are TTY and shouldn't be re-used. Same with head bolts. Get some ARP bolts, they're re-usable.
