@jeeptowel definitely build the motor before you put it in. And you're gonna need a lift to pull the body off the frame.

I’ve got an 04 Grand Marquis and I want to do a full exhaust on it but the only headers I can find made for it are $1,200 and it’s just a 2v Mustang Gt engine but they won’t fit it and i really don’t want to blow that much just to only have headers
