I'm looking to replace the passenger door of my 94. I need a rust-free one, hopefully without a broken handle or other surface damage. Color is not important since I have no chance of getting lucky enough to match mine. Jason Poirier LOD-New England Chapter President '94 Mark VIII Portofino...

The rain finally let up enough in New England for the track to open for the first time in 2 weeks, but it just wasn't dry. The conditions were as bad as I'd even seen them at New England Dragway and everyone's results were the same. After half a dozen passes with the 125 shot the best I could...

I have to hand it to the guy at Performance Dyno in Concord, NH, he went above and beyond the call of duty tuning my car. It goes without saying he'd never tried tuning a Lincoln Mark VIII before and even though SCT had a base program for the car to start with, it was full of mistakes and...

I would like to know just how common it is for the front air suspension sensor to come off it's little knob on the A arm and flop around while the front end raises to the maximum height. This happened to me on my way to Carlisle last year and never having seen this before I was lucky to find a...

Fun Ford Weekend at New England Dragway is coming up. Sunday August 22 is the day for the car show when we'll be there. It's always a good time with a lot to see. There'll be racing too for anyone who's interested either to enter or watch with about every Ford you can think of going down the...

Ok guys the date is set for Saturday the 17th of July, which means next Saturday. Come to the Chateau Restaurant in Norwood, MA on 404 Providence Hwy. It's easy to find, you can see it from the highway, but to get there depending on the direction you come from you may have to drive past it...

I just had a set installed w/ new high flow cats to go w/ my double X-pipe 2.5in exhaust and flowmaster 40 series mufflers. the new sound is not just bad but terrible. before w/ the flows it was a nice low growling burble and now it's nothing but a shrieking tinny drone across the entire rpm...

Over the weekend I finally got around to installing the LMS icebox and capping off that air intake resonator thing. I was certainly shocked at the track when I learned I had gained 3 full tenths just from $52 worth of parts. 14.2@95mph w/ a 60' of 2.11, all are new personal bests and that was...

What can I find that will replace the stock 94 Mark 8 radio w/ cassette player. will any other ford/lincoln units be a direct swap? is there any upgrade that will fit like one w/ a CD player instead of useless cassette? Jason '94 Mark VIII Portofino Blue/Portofino Blue...

for anyone who hasn't seen this on corral yet. it's a carcraft 306 in 2 pieces. I like the end table suggestion. http://www.corral.net/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=387871 Jason '94 Mark VIII Portofino Blue/Portofino Blue http://www.markviii.org/~lincolnman/...

I case you guys haven't seen this before. This picture was sent to me. I like the grill on the prototype and the first drawing reminds me of a Corvette. http://www.markviii.org/~lincolnman/mark8_studies.jpg Jason '94 Mark VIII Portofino Blue/Portofino Blue...

Anybody here tried these yet? This was mentioned at the end of another post. The price looks good and if there are no modifications required this could be a great choice. http://www.supercoupeperformance.com/ http://www.supercoupeperformance.com/4.6L%20Headers.htm here's the blurb from the...

So is there any interest in going to Fun Ford Weekend this year? I know only a couple of us showed up last year and I was alone to race. I don't think I will race this year but just going Sunday for the car show might be worth it. $20 to get in or $30 to enter your car in the show isn't too...

I was pulling up to a stop sign when I noticed a cruiser leave it's speed trap position on the side of the road and follow me. I turned and it followed for 20 feet then the lights come on and I pull over wondering what the problem is. After waiting 5 minutes a female cop comes over and tells...

It looks like the computer is bad in my 94 Mark. it's screwing up the idle and the diagnostic tools the mechanic has can't communicate with it even with the chip out. He says 9 out of 10 times this means it's bad. So if I wanted to get a used one what year mark can I replace it with? same...
