I bought my '04 with the J-Mod done by the previous owner. Its just as good as everyone says it is. It shifts quick, & smooth under normal driving, but will chirp the tires on the 1-2 shift under full throttle even with a bone stock 4.6.
The J-mod is very easy to do and the only thing that you need to be careful of is the torque on the bolts for the valve body. A little drilling of the sep plate and deletion of some strategic accumulator springs and the transmission gets a whole new attitude. I did this on my 2005 when I rebuilt the trans on it back in 2016, and I've done this to most of the 4R70 transmissions I've built since.

I've used seafoam products for a few years now. I like them to stabilize gasoline, and for the top end treatment through the throttle body. The top end treatment requires a heat soak - after spraying it in, you shut off the engine and allow the seafoam to be absorbed. It's always fun driving the vehicle afterwards because of the billows of smoke that this generates. I use the seafoam in the crankcase but only when I am coming up to an oil change (within 300 miles). I find that it does an amazing job of cleaning any gummy deposits, and the way I can tell is how dark the oil appears when it drains. Deep Creep is a good product as well. If I have any criticism it is that seafoam is so expensive.
Shift kit for the 4R70W is technically free had they done the J mod (remove just the bottom springs in the 1-2 and 2-3, drill separator plate, upgrade reverse and OD servos). Since the car is newer than 1998 the last 2 aren't necessary. Just combine that with a tune and a Marauder Torque converter. The car already has a 3:55 rear so you're set with that.
@@bertgrau3934 only the police cars and Marauders have them. The Town Car has 3.08 or 3.27. All of them after 2001 are relatively quick but the police cars have an advantage.
@@BoardwalkBullies Thank you for all the information, mine is a 2001, signature series. What ever rear it has it does seems to accelerate pretty good. With 140,000 miles it still runs very well and gets 23-24 MPG some times I have got as much as 25 MPG . Again thanks for all the information.
@@bertgrau3934 no problem. If it is an 01 you have the PI engine so again it's going to be quicker than the previous ones. My favorites are the 96/97. I wanted to PI swap my 97 badly but I ended up getting an 07 mountaineer with the 300hp 3v instead and sold the town cars. Fun cars even today!
I installed a transgo kit in my 4t65e 03 buick lesabre. Shortens the shift cycles. Cures hard shifts which is extremely common in the 4t65e's. Works beautifully and easy to do. Best $100, (encluding filter and fluid), I've spent on the car.
Pro tip on that cross member. Leave one of the bolts in it but loose. Swing the one end down. If you remove it all the way, its a real pain to get back into place.
A floor jack effortlessly pops it back in place. It's self-aligning, so if you put it near where the through bolts go through, it will automatically align when you press it back into place.
Dorman makes a transmission pan with a drain plug for the Crown Vic. It's better than the stock pan, and a lot less messy. Part #265-813. I change my fluid and filter every 27,000 miles, but I change just the fluid every 9,000 miles, or every three oil changes. No pan removal needed. Be careful replacing the spark plugs. They like to strip out on the 4.6L.
I've done plugs on my marquis so often, I've never had to remove the tb or the fuel rail lol. Takes like 20 minutes. Neat to see the shift kit install, I'd imagine it wouldn't be too much fun working with the springs lying on your back tho
Great build. Love the Vic. And the paint reminded me of a 1970s AMC Javelin RED WHITE AND BLUE. Fun racing and like my old race car back it the 90s and early 2000s I called the race team seat of the pants racing. Cheap racing is the best way to start
“Here’s a nice used car with no issues that’s been fleet maintained. We’re gonna dump a bunch of crap in every hole with a cap or dipstick hoping to solve problems we don’t have, because a sponsor paid us to!”
totally unnecessary to remove fuel rails or throttle body to change spark plugs. I get pulling the transmission for the television audience, but lets not make an easy job look harder.
Bilstein shocks, new upper and lower ball joints, sway bar end links, new intake, NGK plugs, accel coils. Just to maintain it......goals= Massive Traction System for the rear, coil overs on front, trans shift kit(want to manual swap actually), edlebrock performer jr intake, 650 carb or a mustang intake and keep the fuel injection. Get gears out of explorer for the rear, weld the frame to the body, and do some weight loss. She was a free ride and all I'll have in it is cost of parts. It's tough though, this economy sucks ass.
@@WarriorOfEden3033 I know they are FI. I would like to switch to carb. Do away with alot of the electrical systems. Plus, building a daily driver is a long arduous task. Here soon I'm going to park it. Full brake upgrades, high volume oil pump, timing chain kit are in. I have a Hemi Durango but she is a hungry hippo, dont like dailing it either.
upgrading the front and rear sway bars on the, P71/P7Bs is such a massive upgrade on the feeling and handing, especially at higher speeds. it's one of the first things I upgrade on the P71/P7Bs I've owned. rear is 17mm and fronts are 29.5 stock. I go to, 1 inch rear and 1 1/4 front. sssooooo much better and it's cost is just around, 465 for both! definitely worth every penny. adding cold air intakes and not doing anything else and not doing a retune with the new cold air, does nothing lol. I'm currently on my 2nd ownership of a private security patrol company and since my first in, 2008 until now, 2022, I've now owned a total of, 9 P71/P7Bs. since, 2008 i have only has to replace 1 transmission. ironically, it was the lowest mileage vic. lol bought it in, 2009 and it was a, 2005 with just 51k miles on it, after I got it at the auction, drive it back to the office just about 70 miles away and blew the transmission (that same day) paid, 3800 for it and I put in a brand new transmission with a shift kit added to it, costing 2400 bucks. worth it still. that vic lasted until 2017. 8 years of service and retired it with, 198k miles on it. the only upgrade I do after getting one is, upgrading the front and rear sway bars. gives my staff a much better feeling vehicle to drive and adds safety. eliminates under and over steer. obviously also, reduces body roll by a ton. I also try to get ones with rear gear ratio of, 3.27. it's the gear ratio for the police versions with best MPG. police vics can have the, 3.55 and 3.73 gears as well. mist highway departments order the 3.73 gears for best acceleration since thet typically have to go from 0 to really fast all the time on the highways catching up to speeders
@@HorsJizzTim he even has the SDS sheets to compare chemical ingredients. I'm not saying b12 isn't a good product but when it comes to carbon sea foam is hard to beat.
Zero X, I agree with you completely!! I own an '03 P71 and an '06 P71, with no compression on #4 cylinder. Looking at doing a complete Coyote 5.0 w/6 spd trans, out of a wrecked Mustang. Because, according to CZcams, Mustang's are wrecking and taking out crowds and car shows, on a weekly basis!!🤣😂🤣😂
On the police interceptors, those cars with P71 or P7B in the VIN, there exists a pretty beefy transmission cooler. This isn't necessary to upgrade - the cooler is pretty substantial and is mounted in front of the radiator (separate cooler along with power steering cooler on 2003-2005, the lower 1/4 of the AC condenser on 2006+). This is an air to liquid cooler, not a liquid to liquid heat exchanger that's found on stock duty vehicles.
There is a literal ton of weight you can remove from that vehicle. So, gonna put some real gear ratio in the rear? maybe figure out a way to make a nice shifter (maybe take a mustang or relative year range that would look factory?)
can you do an episode dedicated to best matching cam, torque converter, gear ratio, and tire height? Engine dynos are great, but there's lots more to making a car quick.
Why'd you put the trans treatment in it when you were going to dump the fluid anyway? Why not wait til you put the shift kit in it and refilled the trans to add the treatment?
So for your seafoam motor treatment do you just leave it in until your next oil change or you do an oil change after the lubricant has cycled through all engine components????

Thank you sir, I'm getting lots of interesting information on the Lincoln Town Car. I didn't know the Town Car was any longer or shorter than the crown Victoria. Good to know it's frame is 3 inches longer
@@bertgrau3934- They are great cars. Your town car being the longest of the last body on frame "land yachts." My own Panther is a Mercury Grand Marquis LS. Got to love the leather couches in our oversized Mustangs.
