Bobby Underwood’s 1998 Lincoln Mark VIII has had several different engines since it rolled out of the factory. Currently it is running a powerful twin-turbo Coyote V8 running on E85 produces 850-900 horsepower to the wheels. The drivetrain consists of a upgraded Ford 4R70W automatic transmission built by Black Mamba Speed connected to a Chrysler 8.25″ rear end. This combo was good for a 9.79 sec quarter-mile at 140 mph.

I apologize for the limited info on this. I will try to find that out.
