[Shotimes] (OT) Marauder

[Don McKinnon (AST)]

I pretty sure that it can fit! The Australian Ford Falcon XR8 gets the DOHC
5.4l motor, It's deck is not bigger than the Marauder/CV, see a good pix of
the car here
http://www.fantasycars.com/derek/cars/2003_ford_ba_falcon_xr8.html  (why is
it every time I see a pix of this car I drool!)

A 6sp tranny would help with the EPA just like it does/did on the New Cobra,
and C5, CST-V and F-body GM cars.

Would have been nice, except I'm sure it does not fit. Even a stock 5.4 is
very tall, and IIRC the stock 5.4 won't fit in the CV/GM body.

Besides, doesn't the Lightning motor qualify under easier emissions/mileage
stds than regular passenger engines?

Yes, or even the motor out of the Lightning pickup.
