I blew the motor on my 03 GT and I can buy a low mileage 1998 Lincoln Mark 8 drop out with the harness and ecm pretty cheap. I'd like to go with the teksid block and dohc motor to build it and turbo charger it. What challenges am I facing. Anybody have ideas or suggestions. Or should I rebuild my 03 sohc motor ?

Definitely go with the 4V motor it will be like night and day. I have never done the swap but I have had 2V and 4V motors and you will be pleased. That is a good block, and I think everything should be straight forward with the 98 in the 03. good luck.
