Assume smog pump and cat(s) are intact.
Shouldn't be any reason it wouldn't Remember, an HO motor is a stock ford motor that has to meet emission requirements also. My car fast passed MD emissions every time.Builder/Owner of Badass Panther Wagons

quick question, will an HO cam work in an 84 block? from what i hear the rollar lifters wont work in the 85 and down blocks,just want to clearify that. and im not sure if i can use regular lifters on an HO cam, there is a 91 T-bird at the wreckers i work at with an HO in it so im planning on getting the heads and cam out of it, and swapping to a 4 bbl on my merc

Can't use a roller camshaft in an 84 block unless you buy those expensive link bar retrofit lifters. Can't use flat lifters on a roller camshaft either.86 Lincoln Town Car (Galactica).

Could I just drop the 94 HO engine out of my Bronco in my Marq? (with the exception of swapping to the stang intake and swapping the oil pan and whatnot.
I've been told by some not so well informed mustang guys that the truck engine won't accept the Mustang intake. I don't see why they would be different.
I've been trying to part out my Bronco for like a month and it's just not happening so I might just use the motor.
Was also thinking of putting the marq on the Bronco frame, lol.'92 F-350 4x4: 7.3 idi, E4OD, 6" all spring Skyjacker lift, 16.5" Mickey Classic II's, 35" BFG's, Loc-Rite Up front, Trac Lock in rear.

Bronco frame is too short. But I'm almost positive I've figured out how to put the ttb front end under the car.1989 Grand Marquis LS

if you have a CFI car, you will have to convert to SEFI to use HO parts but, the best would be to put a HO engine+wire harness in the car.

the CFI system looks like a carb but, with 2 fuel injectors feeding all cylenders, the SEFI system consists of a upper intake plenum and an injector for each cylender.
