Not sure a 5.0 will fit without some work, a 5.4 is too tall to fit under the hood.

A 4.6 2003-04 Cobra or Lincoln Aviator engine will also work, but you'll need to change the front skirt to clear the Marauder frame.
 
i think the 5.0 will fit since they fit jus fine in a vic and the marauder being DOHC is alil bigger so i think it will but not sure. As for the 5.4 they have an adapter plate for the intake manifold to fit the 4.6 intake manifold cuz its the same engine and they are both modular. And thanks for the info on the 03-04 cobra engine but i thought those were S/C will that S/C fit under a stock hood?

IIRC, the deck height on the 5.4 is taller than the 4.6, creating clearance issues.

As for the Cobra S/C fitting under the hood, I can personally confirm that one...



Corba block with the OEM front skirt will require notching the frame for clearance, however, if you swap out the skirt from the bad MM engine, it'll drop right in.

The old 5.0 pushrod is not going to work. The new 5.0 mod motor would cost too much to do (better off buying a marauder that actually runs!). A 5.4 dohc is going to be too wide and too tall plus the cost of modding everything to work even if it could (again better off buying a marauder that actually runs). The only time a 5.0L motor was in a Vic was back in the 80's and early 90's LTD box body days.

The adapter plates are to make the the 4.6L intake fit 5.4L heads. They are not the same engine, do they come from the same engine family though as far as design.

Do you even have the car or just found it and now trying to track down a motor so you can then buy the car?

What do you consider cheap?

If you're getting the car for $3K, you can afford to sink a couple grand in replacing the motor and still be money ahead.
 
the timeing chain snapped,and in jus thinking if it snapped then that mean that most likely the pistons slapped the head and bent some valves.my problem is i have an 8k spending limit(girlfriends orders) and i want to put some blacked out rims on it and have some minor bolt on parts and a tune.
 
My boss has a 4.6 2v out of a mustang gt but not sure on the price, But the shop is close to you so you can look at and talk money Mikes Body Shop on Ransdell Rd in Lebanon stop by.....
 
My boss has a 4.6 2v out of a mustang gt he would sell but not sure on the price the shop is in lebanon mikes body shop on ransdell rd # 765-482-6884 ask for mike good luck....

A Marauder has a 4v motor. A Crown Vic has a 2v motor.....



If you have an 8 grand limit then you are not going to find a car and have money left over for mods unless you find an MM that has been beat the piss out of. Maybe you should look into getting a CVPI for the mean time until down the road when you can find a nice running MM.
 
I know but the 2v is cheap, but i would love to have a 4v in my vic alot better for mods and last a long time from what i've seen on the site..

That $8K limit isn't going to get you too far, even if you can pick up that one with the bad motor for $3,000. A couple grand for a decent engine and installation; add on the cost of rims (prolly $200 each for black chrome), around $400 for a tune and anywhere from $200 to $1,500 for "minor" bolt-ons (CAI, 4.10 gears, control arms, sway bars, etc.) and you've hit your limit. Anything else goes wrong on the car you're S.O.L...

It may be cheap but the Marauder comes with a 4v. Why would you put a lesser motor in a vehicle than it comes with stock and then have to reverse engineer stuff to work with the 2v motor? lol

If an MM owner put a 2v motor in their car, I hope they would never waste their money in doing so and if they did I hope they would never post up that abomination on this site. :lol:
