This 1962 Lincoln Continental arrived at Farland Classic Restoration with a factory 430 ci V8 and air ride suspension. The company was tasked with swapping the big-block V8 and bad transmission for a 6.2 L LS3 V8 crate motor making 430 hp and 425 lb-ft of torque and new automatic transmission. The engine also received a custom radiator, custom intake box, and new wiring. Inside the car received Dakota Digital VHX-61L dash and a new AC system.

To me, what a waste of time. LS’s are EVERYWHERE and soooooo ho hum. Ford makes some great motors that would’ve been a much better fit. Maybe a Kaase boss 9, Voodoo with a supercharger or just swap back an old FE maybe bored and stroked. Beautiful car, too bad about the engine.
