Answer 1 :
stick with the manual pump as the electric pumps are a pain in the you know where, they are also noisy and not very dependable.
Answer 2 :
I would go with a holley. They make one perfectly suited for the application you require. Call your local speed and custom shop and they can better assist you. They make matching filters too. You don't want to spend good money on a sweet pump and then throw in some doo-doo filter that could possibly not flow the same GPM (gallons per minute) that the pump does. You might need a fuel pressure regulator too....holley has you covered.
Answer 3 :
Mallory, amonst many others, makes a fuel pump for a carb type engine. It needs to be about 5 psi or so, so as to not overpower the needl/seat in the carb

will the doors from a 1965 lincoln continental hard top work with a 1965 lincoln continental convertible?
i recently just purchased and pulled a 1965 lincoln continental convertible from the woods. it has major rust problems on all four doors. instead of repairing the doors i want to just get them from another car. Would the doors from a hard top in the same year fit or do the doors have to be from a convertible? If anyone has parts or info that you think I might find useful. i would gladly appreciate you contacting me. My email is dhaone02@aol.com

Answer 1 :
I do not beleive they will work due to the pillar between the doors on the hard top that the vert doesn't have. Windows will not seal correctly.
Answer 2 :
No unfortunatly they will not work although they will fit, because a convertible in those days had reinforced doors to make up for the lack of structure that is a charatistic of any convertible. the heavier doors prevent body flex and add stability during highway speed travel. a lighter door will fit but when the cars frame modulates to absorb a bump, that energy will go to the weakest point and cause it to bend or break. also you would not want to get in an accident with weaker doors, as they would collapse like an import. Good luck. and pearsonville auto parts and auto wrecking may have some parts for you. and they ups.
Answer 3 :
i agree with the other person the window size is probably different and i do know the mechanism in the windows would have to be changed because the rear door windows automatically drop down a few inches when you open the rear door.

Answer 1 :
It has to be a big block ford of some kind those old continentals all had big low horsepower motors, rebuild the one that was in it is your best bet finding something else 40 plus years later is not going to happen without some custom fabrication work. good luck though I had one those are cool cars for sure and all to rare now a days
Answer 2 :
I'm virtually certain this would be an FE-series engine...therefore, a 352,360, 390, 406, 410, 427, or 428 would bolt in with practically no engineering required.
Answer 3 :
They shared MEL engines with the big Mercury's.. they have the fuel pump on top in front.... The MEL Engine Forum 383, 410, 430, 462 ... ford-mel-engine.com/ Lincoln Forum: Topics: Posts: Last post. No new posts Lincoln Forum General ... http://www.ford-mel-engine.com
Answer 4 :
truthfully the answer of knuckles and others are correct, however these wide engines in this narrow engine compartment created certain problems for accessory drive items this is why the original crankshaft has a longer front snout, as the power steering pump is made into the timing cover housing. this one difference makes any swap difficult it must also be noted that these pumps had leakage problems and finding usable crankshafts and housing/pumps are just not happening any more. my suggesting is to contact an aftermarket drive company for a braketing/pully combination that will fit your combination/application. this may require a/c and p/s hose fabrication but will be easier than swaping in a magna-steer power steering column out of a late model cadillac. best wishes

Lincoln's argument was a sort of primitive foreshadowing of today's Troubled Asset Relief Program, or TARP. While Democrats all the way up to President Andrew Jackson were demonizing the banks, Lincoln maintained that the way to save the system was to pump more money into it. He was convinced that once confidence was restored and commerce began humming again, the public works — roads, canal routes, widened rivers and rail lines — that seemed so expensive during the slump would repay their cost many times over. In his folksy way, he compared a stalled economy to a steam engine and thus summed up the idea we now call stimulus. At the engine's "dead point," Lincoln said, even a single turn is "extremely difficult." But jolt it back to life, and it quickly regains momentum. Then "all will be well again." He wasn't entirely successful, and in the short term, Lincoln's vision saddled Illinois with a heavy public debt. But he carried lessons from that experience into his far more famous fights against slavery and for the Union. Lincoln's presidency worked an unprecedented economic transformation on the country. For the first time, the Federal Government taxed income, floated bonds on a large scale and issued paper currency. http://www.time.com/time/specials/packages/article/0,28804,1877093_1877109_1877111-4,00.html herb........unfortunately "hoping" something will happen does not make it happen. History, on the other hand, could be used as a learning tool so that we don't make the same mistakes again.

Answer 1 :
Do you want it to fail? Why? So you can gloat? Maybe the stimulus will succeed and maybe it will fail. No one really knows. But if they are going to pass it, then I hope is succeeds.
Answer 2 :
because obama is the messiah. geez, i thought everyone had figured it out by now.
Answer 3 :
The Non-Partisan Congressional Budget Office has Already stated this Stimulus WILL Cause More Harm then Good! http://news.aol.com/political-machine/20
