1986 Ford Crown Victoria LX review from North America
"Comfort mixed with power"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air Bypass valve failed.
Replaced it and switched pos. and neg. terminals.
Now works like a charm.
General comments?
Added a eldenbrock performer/ mass air induction kit.
New headers.
Dual flow-masters.
3 1/2 pipes.
Cranks out around 300 some HP and 355 ft. lbs torque.
You want to race who? This car destroys import cars and looks like grandma drives it.
The car is so heavy it gets better traction.
You can lay your coffee on the dash and hit a speed bump doing 40 mph and it would stay. (Recommended no to try)
