That's for the turbo diesel BMW engine in some of the Marks.. not for the Ford I6s that Chuck (200) and I (300) are interested in.

Dear lord, is that :bs:, or is it becuase it's a deisel engine?  Which, other than they use glow plugs and are easier to turbocharge as a result, I know nothing about.

consider this, that 6 cylinder is about as long as a 302 or longer. and that turbo is like half the length of that manifold. im no turbo expert, but that looks like one god dam big turbo.

Wow, those Marks are freaking crazy.  I mean I guess if Versace were going to sponsor a car, why not a Lincoln, there as luxurious as any other domestic ride.  If not nicer.
